Fatahu Muhammad, the member representing Daura Federal Constituency of Katsina State in the House of Representatives, has adviced Nigerian youths to stop prioritising Twitter and focus on real problems facing them.

The federal government of Nigeria, on June 4, suspended Twitter from operating in the country.

The suspension of the micro- logging site has generated mixed reactions from people.

Fatahu Mohammed, who is from Buhari’s constituency has been a vocal pro-twitter-ban, once again reiterated his support for the ban, emphasizing the need for protection of Nigerian sovereignty.

“For God sake, what is social media? Are we eating social media? Let us go back to the resources, and harvest them, and let keep this thing aside, and face the real problem in Nigeria.

“My colleagues have spoken the mind of their constituents. If I would speak the mind of my constituents, I would include the president, because out of 360 of us, I am the only one voted by the president. Look, Nigeria first, let us be honest to ourselves, let us call a spade a spade,”

“We should please regulate the media.

“If the minister did not ban Twitter on the instruction of the President, the kind of insults to the sovereignty of Nigeria from the users of Twitter would be more than what we are facing.

“Let us tell ourselves the truth, Nigeria comes first. Sometimes, when I am reading tweets, I am disappointed with the youths (because) we are the future of Nigeria,”
