Buhari’s Nephew and a member representing Daura Federal Constituency of Katsina State in the House of Representatives, Fatahu Muhammad, has defended the suspension of Twitter in Nigeria.
Grassroots.ng reported that the Federal Government, on June 4, suspended Twitter from operating in the country.
The action stirred criticisms from countries, groups and individuals at home and abroad, who described the decision as an attack on freedom of expression.
Mr Muhammad, who is from Buhari’s constituency said social media needs to be regulated in order for youths to put Nigeria first and face the real problems.
Expressing disappointment at Nigerian youths, the lawmaker said Twitter was not food that Nigerians required.
