Be prepared to build thousands of prisons, Ozekhome tackles Malami over Twitter Ban

Human rights lawyer, Mike Ozekhome, SAN, says the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, SAN, lacks the powers to make laws through his declarations or pronouncements, adding that only the National Assembly has the exclusive preserve to make laws in the country.

Ozekhome also said the AGF should be prepared to build thousands of prisons to host the millions of Nigerian Twitterati community who defy the government’s ban of the microblogging site.

In a statement on Sunday titled, ‘The Twitter Ban, Prosecution, More Prisons And The Link With The JUSUN Strike’, the senior advocate also urged the Judicial Staff Union of Nigeria to call off its strike to enable citizens challenge the excesses of the Federal Government in court.
