Bureau of Public Enterprise (BPE) said it
is perfecting plans to draw up possible regulations for social media usage in
the country to checkmate all manner of things being uploaded on the various
platform of the social network without recourse to age and sensibilities of the
users.
The Director General of the Bureau of
Public Enterprises (BPE), Mr Benjamin Ezra Dikki, dropped the hint while
speaking to a section of non management staff of the organization during a
workshop in Kuchikau, Nasarawa State
DigitalSENSE Business News learnt from the workshop that Dikki expressed his
dissatisfaction over government laxity on the activities that are uploaded on
the internet and assured of BPE preparedness to stem the tide by introducing stringent
rules in the regard.
Confirming this in a statement sighted by DigitalSENSE
Business News and signed by head of the Bureau’s public
communication, Chigbo Anichebe, the BPE boss was quoted as saying that “in line
with its reform mandate, the Bureau plans to initiate necessary policies and
the legal framework for the regulation of the Social Media in the country.”
The statement further declared that close
the monitoring of the activities on the social media would assist the
government in its determination to retain its services or otherwise.
... Making SENSE of digital revolution!
