Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) and Justice Minister Abubakar Malami has said the ban on the use of Twitter in the country was done to protect Nigeria’s interest.
Speaking in Abuja, on Thursday July 1, said the nation’s interest is paramount above other considerations and any company operating in Nigeria must understand and respect this.
“If you want to operate as a business entity in Nigeria, you must do so within the context of Nigerian laws. Nothing offensive or that breaches the Nigerian laws should be entertained.”
The AGF said the Federal Government had established a committee on Twitter ban after the company approached the government on the issue.
