Social media is really a problem. Someone sat in the comfort of his or her room and thwarted Desmond Elliot's speech. Now people that didn't watch the video will believe this quicker than watching the video.

... this is making Desmond Elliot's speech true after all. We need to put a lid on social media.

Goan put a lid or cover sef, so that someone like you will stop coming here to type rubbish and just bent on woteva those politicians want you to hear or know...mumu

The reason for your last paragraph is that someone already put a lid on your reasoning. Walking zombie.

Desmond Elliot, 46 was blasted on Twitter for referring to the Nigerian youths as "Children". Desmond who is a member of the Lagos State House of Assembly representing the Surulere constituency constantly called Nigerian youths "children" during a session concerning the social media regulation bill.

Watch the video below.

Other than addressing youths as children, what he said is nothing but the truth. But yall hate the truth.

Even Nairaland had to have a ban option to regulate those who act like children here.

If you lost someone or you were a victim of the wicked lootings and destruction of private businesses and properties, you won't be supporting the youths on this issue anymore.

Should Social media be regulated? Of course.
The question should be how much regulation should be made, to avoid abuse of govt's power and targeting of govt's opposition.

PDP social media war lords like @von_Bismarck, @NekkaSmith &@Ayemojubar often deliberately misquote politicians especially of the APC to demarket them.
They are the ones that started all these.
