The Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, on Saturday, June 5, ordered the prosecution of Nigerians defying the government’s ban on Twitter, but did not state the specific law that is being violated.

Asked which law the AGF intends to invoke to prosecute alleged offenders, his spokesperson, Umar Gwandu, told Premium Times that “the alleged violators would get to know in court”.

“We will invite journalists at the time of prosecution, and they will know which laws are used to prosecute. The point is Twitter has been banned. Anybody should not try to use Twitter.

At the time we are gathering them and assembling them in court, they will get to know which law they are violating. The government has banned Twitter and anybody who uses it will be penalised. The point is they violated the ban. They are violating the federal government laws,”
he said.

Twitter is a social media company, Nigerians can use social media e.g Twitter to express themselves or to associate with friends and family. Twitter is in no way a danger to anybody or company, The Federal government in Nigeria need to respect the rule of law and basic human rights. One man’s decision in over 250 million population is unreasonable and inconsiderate for an illiterate President who never went to secondary school for one day to take this decision. As a Nigerian I will register with Twitter just to be on the side of those Nigerians ready and willing to stand their ground against this tyrant myopic minded leader, an illiterate belch and most Nigerians are shivering.
