As expected NLders began to bash the president and DSS. Truth is that story followed from a post by Sowore on twitter. What the writer failed to mention is the real offence of Emmanuel Akuma. What did he say in criticising Buhari.

Attached here is the twitter post that got him in trouble. You think because you have freedom of speech then you can say anything? Or because you are behind a keypad, you think you cannot be traced.

This is a warning to youths especially, be careful of what you post online.

No serious country will take that post as a joke.

Emmanuel Akuma is learning an important lesson in life the hard way. Many more are already languishing in various prisons. Mind what you say online.

This is the same person. He just changed his name.

Freedom of speech has limits. We see that already with Donald Trump.

Yawns

Here is the self-acclaimed patriot supporting the incarceration of a citizen who has not faced trial in a law court.
What's the difference between this and shekau holding Leah sharibu for refusing to denounce Christianity?

It is just very few reasonable and sensible people that had a second thought about it that yesterday's thread...very few people reasoned that
'why would the president arrest a nonentity and leave the likes of Fayose, who sworn on his life and his parents grave that Bubu died in a UK hospital, that he has the video and multiple images to support his lies, but Baba paid him no mind, FFK, the short fuse idiot has written and said more demeaning words to PMB, but Baba never made any mention about it, Reno and the rest of them nko, Baba ignore them all......
Is it now one foolish nonentity, that wakes up his parents with kicks and blows every morning, an idiot that has no respect for his parents or grandparents, typing on his worn out mat from his village that Baba will say DSS Should go an arrest ?!'

Well, it is always good and refreshing to know we still have members like the below that use their God-given brain to have second thoughts about some sensational bs as this.....

GetMeRight:

This report is too sensational.

gtown:

He wrote it for his mates.
Can you see how they are wailing over it?

It is just 2 of you guys and some other 3 people that made sense in that previous thread of yesterday.
You can now see you have been justified.



That is why this saying exist: Rumours are spread by fools and believe by idiots

matrix199:
In Nigeria, criticism must be done with discretion. For me, I think president buhari has done really really really very well for Nigeria. The learned folks would more likely get my point, while the peasants wouldn't.

You are one of the sane members here.
You've said it all.
Nothing to be added again.

MondayOsunbor:
Is Nigeria still a democracy?

But it was democracy when a sitting President commanded soldiers to wipe out all the men of a certain village in Nigeria just few years ago.....and they DID!

Two characteristics of wailers : LIES AND HYPOCRISY!

Mynd44:

The news was false.
The case is actually in court. He was denied bail
He has not been held without trial

Here is the absolute truth of the matter.
Rumors are truly spread by demented souls and losers


Buhari has refused like previous governments to bribe legislators to do their duties, and since their dirty strategies is no longer working they have become a stumbling block to progress...the wailers will say if it was OBJ he would have dealt with them. (But if he had use any other means they will say he is undemocratic; two sided mouth people)

If you call a thief by its name, they will say how can you be insulting an honourable, a distinguished senator, a former president who has fought poverty through farming etc, but
hear them when they refer to Mr president, 'the man is a m***n, he is brain dead, he is d*ft' etc.

But this man has proven to be better than them all, he has refused to respond to the tantrums of their bosses, the OBJs, Atikus, Fayose, Reno, FFK etc Like a true soldier he marches on with the good works, and God has been his defense.
They want to bury our darlingDaddy, they don'tknow he is a seed.

Wahala be like Dangote towel, e no dey cover nyansh finish.

They've collect their 30k to please their lord. E continue...

Come out with proof or you STFU

You support evil or you don't support evil, evil will exist...But choose to support what is right because of Tomorrow

He capped wrongly. But he deserves a fair trial.

If he's serving a jail term, let us know for how many years.

While what the young man said was not OK, I wonder what's the charge? Is it the under the new hate speech law?

Truth is, most people are tired and wants to see true change, even if it means cursing out the Buhari led govt. This government will go on suppressing everyone with contrary views until the beast in the people is unleashed and they express themselves in something worse than the endsars rage.

So many dangerous things have been said by known people , but is only the weak people that will be punish for a joke

Kingzeez10:

Come out with proof or you STFU

Can u just face ur front. Tenk u... Werey dey disguise. Under democracy, u will just kidnap somebody without charging them to court. What's the difference between them and shekau

wellmax:
This guy too has been held by DSS

With people like you Nigeria will never get better. What do you mean by Nigerian youths should be careful of what they post so that the won't be arrested?
Can Buhari arrest all the Nigerian youths? Or will he stay in power forever? Trump is out today, tomorrow it will be Buhari. Power is transient but northern rulers never seem to remember that until it's too late. Buhari can arrest anybody he likes today but by 2023 he will be out of there and even Bobrisky will be more influential. Power is transient, Abacha with all the power died, Babangida can't even attend functions anymore, Obasanjo is being insulted by people he made, Jonathan was betrayed. Buhari will not be different, he may have forgotten that.

We bash Buhari everyday which is unfair, so many people like that on Nairaland.

They blame Buhari for their inherited poverty

Me sef dey wonder

Hmmm

No mind dem losers.
Some of these frustrated wailers graduated from school since 1999 with no job, but they still say Buhari is their problems in life.
Wailing losers, supporters of criminals they are.

tbtosine:
Sometimes i wonder if nairalander ever read the rules of this site on comment before some post their comments. Also. the disclaimer of this site has made its member responsible for whatever they post. Not seun or his admin will be hold responsible if the casala burst. For this reason i solely reserves my comment. God bless Nigeria.

Well.........everyone can read the disclaimer.
The owner don tell dem all man o himself (when they threatened or say any demeaning word to a member who that will have their time to go all the way to fish such nuisances out from their yard), we will read about them on the Frontpage that day.

This government no dey serious.
Dem go talk say na hate speech or conflict speech now.
DSS wey sabi arm thugs and give them Uber x experience.

So, if anyone went online and threatened your life using your real name, you will forgive them, pat them on the back and say Freedom of speech is important.
