The federal government has directed security agencies to tackle the propagation of hate speech,\u00a0especially through social media<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

The order was given at a security meeting presided over by President Muhammadu Buhari at the presidential villa in Abuja.<\/p>\n

Mansur Dan Ali, minister of defence, had described the trend of hate speech on social media as worrisome.<\/p>\n

\u201cRelevant security agencies should as a matter of urgency tackle the propagation of hate speeches\u00a0through the social media, particularly by some notable Nigerians,\u201d Ali said.<\/p>\n

The development comes one year after Lai Mohammed, minister of information, vowed that the current administration would not regulate social media.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have said it before and we want to re-state it: the federal government has no immediate or long-term plan to stifle press freedom. Even the social media, with its warts and all, will neither be regulated nor have its operations tampered with,\u201d he had said in January 2017.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
