Reacting to the news this afternoon, Nigerian singer and lawyer Falz has condemnedthe punishment saying; ‘it is shameful to see public officers using the machinery of the state to harass citizens and attempting to hinder our inalienable freedom of expression.’

 

He wrote: ‘HATE to see stuff like this! This is 2019. Any individual who feels defamed by any statement made by another person can sue for libel or slander under the law of defamation.
