| House Of Senate |
Is this story for real? According to a report published by Daily Trust, it revealed that the upper house is set to pass law seeking 7 year jail term for social media critics.
The newspaper reports that the Senate has reached an advanced stage to pass a bill that seeks seven years jail term for social media critics found guilty of inciting the public against the government.
The proposed legislation which has scaled second reading in the upper legislative chamber is also proposing a stiffer punishment for internet fraudsters and scammers in Nigeria as those convicted will face a seven years imprisonment.
The big question is where is freedom of expression that the constitution guaranteed every Nigeria?
Is this what they were voted for?
Too many unanswered questions.
