In reaction, Onanuga tweeted: “Social media need to be regulated urgently. So many spurious reports today about the Kaduna governorship verdict by the Election Tribunal.
“The most notoriously shared headline: “Kaduna governorship election declared inconclusive.” This was circulating while the tribunal was still reading its judgment.informationguidenigeria
“There should be some control in the social media space, otherwise the misinformation and disinformation being disseminated will one day trigger a civil war in our country.”
