The Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, on Saturday, directed the Director of Public Prosecution of the Federation to begin immediate prosecution of those who violate the Federal Government’s order suspending Twitter operations in Nigeria.
The Nigerian Twitter users woke up on Saturday encountering difficulty in accessing their Twitter handles while some navigated the hurdle using virtual private networks (VPN).
The statement reportedly sent by the AGF read: “Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, SAN has directed the immediate prosecution of offenders of the Federal Government ban on Twitter operations in Nigeria”.
