PoliFocus Condemns The ignoble "Bill Against Social Media Users In Nigeria"


The social media was flooded with the news that a bill that hope to send social media users to two years jail if the post(s)  of such user(s) is discovered to be falsehood.

Though the leadership of the Senate has debunked the news but to every rumour, there is always an iota of truth in it.

The bill which was sponsored by Ibn Na'Allah under the guise of Senate President Bukola Saraki. If passed social media users will be sent to jail if government deems social media post or petition to be false with  option of N4m fine. 

PoliFocus condemns this I'm strong term, social media is now the largest constituency in Nigeria. Where masses opinions are heard.

With social media, you to need to knock on the door of your representative before reaching to him or her.

It will be callous of the president government and the sponsor of the bill to deny us this widely accepted link.

Most of the crop of people in government now enjoyed the wide range of coverage of this social media during electioneering.

Senator Ibn Na'Allah should be tamed and the upper chamber in general, so as not to plunged the nation into an avoidable problem or protest.

Era of harassment is gone into oblivion!
