How can you say censoring social media would not prevent the country from burning?

Countries without the problems we face still ensure social media is indeed censored, so what are you scared of?

There is nothing like root cause other than the predilection for illegality and anarchy by a large swathe of the Nigerian populace.

Even the opposition to censorship underlines this.



Nigeria is sitting on a keg of gunpowder (Tribal tensions, Poverty, Unemployment, Terrorism, Banditry), any spark will be a disaster. Censoring social media is like taking away a matchbox, when we have other things like lighters, stoves around us.
They should focus on gradually evacuating the gun powder.

The average igbo man does not trust an Hausa man and vice versa, the Yoruba man does not trust both tribes. But miraculously, our politicians are getting along.

Those countries with extreme social media regulation, like China, North Korea don't have the problems we have.

Nigeria needs to focus on the problems now.

He made so much sense but the useless youth he's talking about will make a repeat of what he's complaining of and then shut him up....
Perhaps, he belongs to the APC, so it's expected.

However, I still think he's stupid for making reference to "lekki shooting ".. If anyone had indeed died by the hands of the army/police ( not thugs and stampede) , they are not better than those killed in other locations or states.



Too much of garri consumption I guess.

I agree with Desmond.

Social media is a vast sea of uncharted territory and regardless of its benefits, it has proven countless times to be deadly - a potential weapon of mass destruction - that lacks any clear stringent regulatory laws to curtail its excesses.

And irrespective of what you and I may think now, let it be clear that a time will surely come when the world will collectively agree that this hydra-headed monster called social media must be reigned in to mitigate against future man-made disasters.
leave all these kids.Dey think violence can help any person.who never c war na dey make mouth.

Somebody needs to shut this guy up already, it seems he has developed diarrhea of mouth since the EndSARS protest started. Is he trying to act as a youth front for his political colleagues, because nobody regards him as a youth any more? A two faced politician like him who only chose to unveil his Yoruba name while he was contesting for a political post, nobody knew he was a Yoruba before then. This guy is not trust worthy. He should continue to commission public toilets for his constituent.

So this one join youth abi Not too young to run my foot...... Idiot fellow!!! You can never be among this our new nigeria... 2023 I made sure u relegate politically

And who are you to relegate someone politically? Please you need to ask for forgiveness. God does not take it lightly when someone arrogates His power to himself/herself, mere mortal. Only GOD the Jehovah is I AM. Herod tried it but worms finished him off. Please and please be careful pride is what sent Lucifer packing from God's Kingdom. God give you the breath but not for you to brag. You are as useless as the dust if He takes the breath away in a second

The only raving and ranting people against Desmond are Igbos, illiterates and anti Nigerian fake news peddlers and consumers.


LASG cannot legislate anything social media, but the man asked the fake news peddlers, social media agitators, influencers and inciters to stop being reckless with their reckless utterances.

Thes online trolls called influencers really need to STFU sometimes.
