The govt shouldn't gag social media.. People should also be more responsible with what they post.. The afonja, Igbos and arewa rubbish on nairaland should stop! Omooba77: The State Security Service on Wednesday announced a nationwide crackdown on individuals allegedly caught posting inciting materials on the Internet, in a move that could provoke fresh debates about the potency of Nigerian Constitution’s free speech safeguards.
The SSS said it had recently observed that some social media users were skewing Nigeria’s history to promote ethnic violence and tip the nation into crisis, a development it said must be urgently reversed through state interference.
The secret police’s spokesperson, Peter Afunanya, said in a statement to PREMIUM TIMES that some “unpatriotic” Nigerians have been using social media platforms to make “unguarded public statements and/or use the social media platforms to instil fear in the minds of citizens”.
“These are reflected in the misleading statements and articles being circulated among unsuspecting members of the public. Such inciting materials oftentimes are designed to make or convey false accusations by one group against the other.
“They also resort to skewing historical narratives to suit their objective of masterminding ethnic violence in the nation. So far, some of the culprits have been arrested,” Mr Afunanya said.
The SSS said it was “determined to ensure that the tribal chauvinists and mischief makers do not continue to exploit socio-political differences and Internet platforms to threaten the peace and stability of the country.”
The service said regional and community elders should not only desist from making “unguarded statements” but also help shut down all ethnically-charged rhetoric by persons in their respective domains.
The SSS vowed to “sustain the apprehension and prosecution of defaulters,” because it would not relent in its quest to prevent crimes and keep Nigeria as an indivisible country.
Mr Afunanya told PREMIUM TIMES in a follow-up conversation that he would make available the identities of those arrested and from which parts of the country.
While it may generate outrage for the manner it was executed, the crackdown did not come in isolation or as a surprise to Internet and free speech advocates.
The Nigerian government has invested heavily in tracking tools to keep social media users in check, even though the practise remained largely non-transparent and constitutionally problematic.
“It is a development that does does not come as a surprise,” Adeboye Adegoke, an Internet rights expert with Paradigm Initiative, told PREMIUM TIMES Wednesday morning. “The foundation for this was laid in the past three-two five years with investments in monitoring and policing speech by the Nigerian government.”
Mr Adegoke described the SSS’ action as scary and aimed at fostering an atmosphere of fear amongst Nigerians online.
“What we are seeing is a scary dive dive into a climate of fear, a chilling effect in which case citizen will have to think twice before sharing opinion especially those opinions that do not paint the incumbent in good light.”
The analyst said the government has exploited its monopoly over national security to assume a controversial position as the arbiter of patriotism and seditious acts.
“The Constitution is clear on the rights of citizens to express opinions. The government does not have to like such opinions,” Mr Adegoke said.
The expert said the SSS should promptly publish details of the arrests, but Nigerians should not wait before condemning repressive acts that erode civil liberties.
“The country is gradually becoming a place where speech is being policed and everyone who cares about civil liberty should not only be worried but resist attempts by the state to cow citizens into submission to state-defined ‘patriotism’ or ‘hate speech.”

The initial post was stupid... Yours was deliberately mischievous.. You chose to mention the verse which did not fully quote Jesus.. Mark 10:29-30 quotes in detail what Christ said and omits wives in the list of the things and people to be restored to followers of Christ. Moreover, the restoration is to happen on earth not heaven. It is eternal life that is promised in heaven. I also don't know what you mean by "hellven".. You guys are just being irresponsible on social media. "And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's, But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life". Kokoebapluse:
. You mean Matthew 19:29 where you promise 100 wives in hellven? |

Mr extralargeheadwithnobraininside, the marital consent of the bride is no longer necessary? In this case the "bride" a rape victim of the "groom" wont want to marry him. And in any event, at 12 years, she is too young to consent to marriage... In case you didnt read well, the location is ondo state! extralargehead: He should marry her, simple, since his four wives are not enough for him. |

According to an eye witness;
“Two men in a jeep driving and found a woman tied all over the back seat and also having a baby sitting,crying at the front sit,only to find out that these two men are kidnappers and one of them happened to be the woman's husband.
This woman said she just realized that her husband is into rituals ,she had three children for him but her husband and the other man has taken two of them away and she couldn't find them at all,now they wanted to take her and the third child before people came to their rescue at lawanson and those men were dealt with before the mob handed them over to the police.”
