…Says Nigerian Government Needs To ‘Control’ Like China
The wife of the President and Nigeria’s First Lady, Aisha Buhari, has called for stiff social media regulations in the country.
The First Lady disclosed this on Friday, the 29th of November at the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs General Assembly and National Executive Council meeting at the National Mosque, Abuja, according to reports by Daily Trust.
According to her, since China with about 1.3 billion people can do so, there was nothing wrong for Nigeria to adopt such measure.
She said, “On this issue of social media, you cannot just sit in the comfort of your house and tweet that the Vice President has resigned. It is a serious issue.
“If China can control over 1.3bn people on social media, I see no reason why Nigeria cannot attempt controlling only 180m people.”
