Hate speech, electoral violence and threats to national unity (opens the original)
Read excerpt
By the close of last August, a hitherto nondescript chairman of Kuje Area Council in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Samuel Danjuma Shekwolo, attempted advertising an authority he clearly did not possess. In a widely circulated video on social media, Shekwolo threatened the voters in the council that they must either support the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) for the 2027 elections or vacate the area.
