Jonathan will burst into laughter when he learns that Sowore was charged for insulting Buhari — Nigerians reacts


Following the news that Sowore was being charged for insulting President Muhammadu Buhari, Nigerians have stormed the social media to expressed their anger over the Federal Government’s intolerance of critism.



Recall that The Department of State Services (DSS), has formally filed five-count charges against Omoyele Sowore, convener of #RevolutionNow protest, on Thursday.




The service accused the SaharaReporters publisher of causing insult to the person of President Muhammadu Buhari, money laundering and treason.

But reacting, a twitter user, Emmanuel Emmanuel said Goodluck Jonathan would just laugh if he heard that Sowore is being charged for insulting President Buhari.

Below are their reactions:

@Manny_udoh_Jr > "When Goodluck Jonathan @GEJonathan heard that Sowore who was paid to insult him between 2011-2015 in Favour of Buhari is being charged for insulting Buhari. I don't want to interfere in a family matter abeg."



Adetilewa odunayo @adetilewa_sodiq > "The number of insults Trump as received since becoming president of USA is way too much compared to what Sowore said to Bubu. And nobody was jailed,prosecuted nor arrested. This shows how backward and low our govt is."

Ameko Etim
@AmekoEtim > "Sowore worked verywell for Buhari and Apc in 2015, he used his Sahara Reporter's platform to abuse, insult and drag former President Goodluck Jonathan but today He is a victim of the govt he assisted to power.
May your story never be like Sowore's case in Jesus name.
Bolanle."

@BolajiAremo > "Insult is not a crime. It’s a personal issue; best you can do is sue for libel. We don’t have Lese Majeste law in Nigeria insulating the president from insults.
FG charges Sowore with treasonable felony, accuses him of insulting Buhari"

Chibuoke O.
@chibo_okafor > "Well, On this Sowore case,
in as much as the @MBuhari is wrong in a sense,
It's safe to say that Sowore brought this on himself…
Not just by "insulting", but also by his past sins to @GEJonathan .
Sowore is just getting a taste of the seeds he has sown.
Check @renoomokri"
