She said, “It is ironic that as a country, we are being compared or assessed with countries like China, like North Korea, in terms of free country, in terms of countries that respect human rights; it is a new low for Nigeria to be compared in that aspect.
“The regulations regarding all models of communication need to be viewed in terms of pragmatism. Also, they must pursue avenues that do not infringe on human rights. If the regulations are going to be infringing on human rights, then, they are dead on arrival. The Amnesty official further stressed that rather than ban social interaction platforms like Twitter, the government should make laws to protect free speech and expose peddlers of fake news and divisive statements.
“We also have laws that deal with issues around defamation by persons who believe that their rights have been violated in one way or the other.
