I would have loved to ask the senator if what The Arewa youths did by giving ultimatum to Igbos living in the north was hate speech?

Also if Buhari threatening that dogs and baboons would be soaked in blood should he lose an election was hate speech?
I think people lilke you who , twist and distort speech and action of others should be covered by this bill and should face similar punisment if gound guilty.
The utimatum by Arewa youths was in support of iPOBs who ar[s][/s]e were desperate to have and develop their own country biafra.
The dog and baboon speech was in hausa and was not referring to if buhari loses election. It refers to any keen competion in the election, and this figurative speech is usually made by the underdog. The correct translation of " kare jini biri jini" is " both the dog and the baboon will suffer in the fight". The dog been the predator and the baboon the prey. You can apply this metaphor to any competition . e.g. in the next football match between Nigeria and Tunisia , it will be "Kare jini biri jini" that is there will be no easy win, they both have to work hard..
But when you are talking to a slowpoke , he will not understand or just refuse to accept the factual info.

That reaction when a mad man calls a sane fellow 'were'!
ICC will decide the fate of the Arewa youths when Buhari is no longer there to shield them.

.What the bill notes
“A person who uses, publishes, presents, produces, plays, provides, distributes and/or directs the performance of any material, written and/or visual, which is threatening, abusive or insulting or involves the use of threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour, commits an offence, if such person intends thereby to stir up ethnic hatred, or having regard to all the circumstances, ethnic hatred is likely to be stirred up against any person or person from such an ethnic group in Nigeria.”

Looking at this I feel its a way to go, if it will enhance Tolerance of all kind in our beloved country. Because some part of this country esp the Northern axis had in past times experience religious and ethnic clashes resulting to loss of lives and properties as a result of a "Reported speech by someone" (esp clerics and tribal and ethnic heads), publications or an intentional hate speech targeted at a group as the case maybe. I don't think this is meant to victimize anyone but rather a caution to the general populace.

In a new bill by the Senate, any person found guilty of any form of hate speech that results in the death of another person shall die by hanging upon conviction.

The hate speech bill, which has passed second reading in the senate, has generated a lot of opinions since the pubic got to know about it . Well, here are 5 things you should know about it.

2.Why he sponsored the bill
People who cause the death of another through hate speech should also be killed, and according to him ,“after all, our present law says if you do anything that results in the death of another person and it is proven beyond reasonable doubt that you caused the death of that person, the penalty is death by hanging.” The Senate spokesperson said the penalty is only for those who are found guilty of any form of hate speech that results in the death of another person after judicial processes in a Federal High Court.

“It is therefore, our considered opinion that it is pertinent to avoid such pitfalls in our bid to come up with legislation to curtail the excesses of citizens,"


Therefore, all those Senators who refused to execute Constituency Projects by siphoning millions of naira would be hanged. because the roads and hospitals they refused to build and repair have caused so many avoidable deaths by their abandonment.

i don't blame them. A people deserve the leaders they have. If not, they have not made any Law to hang corrupt leaders who are causing lots of hardships and widespread poverty in the midst of unquantifiable abundance, but they want to hang people for hate speech. Yet it is the HARDSHIP AND WIDESPREAD POVERTY THAT IS RECRUITING DISGRUNTLED ELEMENTS AND HATE SPEECH.

Proposing passage of this bill is a step in the right direction. As much as there is freedom of speech, citizens should exercise caution. And that is the essence of it all. Heat speech is capable of inciting hatred and war, hence the need for caution. That doesn't mean journalists and trained professionals are gagged.
obongitiad:
I like the bill.

Nigeria desperately needs such.

But the bill is not balanced as it focuses on only ethnicity. The bill should be reviewed to include the religion too, so that those extremists telling their followers to kill people of other religion should be brought to book too.

Hate speech is not free speech!

In a new bill by the Senate, any person found guilty of any form of hate speech that results in the death of another person shall die by hanging upon conviction.

The hate speech bill, which has passed second reading in the senate, has generated a lot of opinions since the pubic got to know about it . Well, here are 5 things you should know about it.

1. Who sponsored the bill?
The spokesman of the upper chamber, Senator Aliyu Sabi Abdullahi (APC, Niger) did.

2.Why he sponsored the bill
People who cause the death of another through hate speech should also be killed, and according to him ,“after all, our present law says if you do anything that results in the death of another person and it is proven beyond reasonable doubt that you caused the death of that person, the penalty is death by hanging.” The Senate spokesperson said the penalty is only for those who are found guilty of any form of hate speech that results in the death of another person after judicial processes in a Federal High Court.

3.Those who will oppose the bill?
The Senate says “People who may be having some opposing views about it definitely are not in the category of people who have lost dear ones and family or livelihood to similar circumstances. If they are, I think they will be saying how I wish this was in place before this thing happened to me.”

4.What the bill notes
“A person who uses, publishes, presents, produces, plays, provides, distributes and/or directs the performance of any material, written and/or visual, which is threatening, abusive or insulting or involves the use of threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour, commits an offence, if such person intends thereby to stir up ethnic hatred, or having regard to all the circumstances, ethnic hatred is likely to be stirred up against any person or person from such an ethnic group in Nigeria.”

5.What journalists are saying
In a statement on Friday, the NUJ National Secretary, Shuaibu Leman, said “It is instructive to note that citizens are entitled to free speech even if they hold offensive and hurtful opinions. We also cannot forget that people have the right to be biased, even offensive in their speech even if journalism is different and we have to be aware of this.”

“It is therefore, our considered opinion that it is pertinent to avoid such pitfalls in our bid to come up with legislation to curtail the excesses of citizens,”
