Adekunle Gold has reacted to South-West Governors giving their support to social media regulation.
Governors and monarchs in the South-West region, on Sunday, called on the Federal Government to ensure the regulation of social media.
According to the communique issued after the meeting which partly read,
“We recognize the damaging and negative impact of fake/false news and worry about its destructive and dangerous potency of fake news. We call on the federal government to use the instrumentality of existing laws and those regulations bench-marked from other countries to provide safeguards against the spread of fake news. 2015 Cyber Act will also be fully used.
“Federal Government should ensure that technology is used effectively for the advancement of the Nigerian Security and not its destruction by working with the technology cum social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc. The regime of checks and gatekeeping should be fully employed.”
