President Goodluck Jonathan has taken a subtle swipe at President Buhari over the Presidency’s stance on Hate speech which has been rendered akin to terrorism and will henceforth be treated as such by the Nigerian government.
Jonathan shared a picture taken in 2014 in which he said that while he’s one of the most insulted Presidents in the world, he’ll always be for the total freedom enjoyed under his watch.
This is in response to last week’s pronouncement by the Presidency that hate speech will now be treated as terrorism and that the military will start to monitor social media comments.
The post brought about mixed reviews by Nigerians with some praising Goodluck and others coming for him. With over 2000 comments and 9,481 shares the post can now be said to be viral.
