“Traditional platforms once dominated by journalists have been infiltrated since the evolution of new media. Today, anyone with internet access can share checked or unchecked information, just like a journalist giving rise to misinformation.” — Josiah Buzun, Radio Nigeria.
While the ...use of digital technologies continues to grow, many Nigerians remain unaware of their rights online.
To address this gap, we hosted a Digital Rights Roundtable in @plsgovt in collaboration with @actionaidnigeria and #digicivicinitiative, members of the Data and Digital Rights Coalition. The event brought together journalists to examine Nigeria’s legal frameworks on digital privacy, #dataprotection, and #freedomofexpression.
Participants discussed the state of electoral petition cases, focusing on both resolved and unresolved cases that exposed significant weaknesses in the judiciary. This led to calls for urgent judicial reforms, as public trust continues to decline due to concerns over political interference.
We emphasized the importance of journalists understanding key laws such as the Nigeria Data Protection Act (2023) and the Nigerian Data Protection Regulation (NDPR). Encouraging them to use their platforms to report #digitalrights violations, as well as promote structural reforms through ethical and informed reporting.
We also highlighted platforms like #Ripoti, a digital tool for reporting digital rights violations and holding accountable those responsible for breaches of digital rights.

When did speaking up become a threat to national security?🤔
