A member of the House of Representatives from the Daura Federal Constituency of Katsina State, Fatahu Muhammad, has admonished Nigerian youths to stop dissipating energy on the ban on micro-blogging platform, Twitter, as it is not the food they need, but to focus on real problems facing the country.
Muhammad who is President Muhammadu Buhari’s nephew and represents the President’s constituency, said he was in support of the ban on Twitter as the site was being used to destabilise the country.
The lawmaker who spoke on Tuesday during the investigative hearing organized by the House joint committees on Information, National Orientation, Ethics and Values alongside the National Security, Justice and Commerce, on the suspension of Twitter, expressed his disappointment at Nigerian youths for putting so much emphasis on social media instead of focussing on real issues.
