Activist Rinu has chastised Nasir El-Rufai, the governor of Kaduna State, for using Twitter despite the fact that the service is still banned in Nigeria.
El-Rufai tweeted on Wednesday, Nov. 10, and when asked if he was using a VPN to Tweet, he said he wasn't because he was outside of Nigeria.
Human rights activist, Rinu Oduala, then responded: "The only place you get freedom of speech is outside Nigeria."
El-Rufai replied: "Wrong @SavvyRinu! Conflating Twitter with 'freedom of speech' is a significant exaggeration. Freedoms of many descriptions existed before and without Twitter, and will remain long after!! Enjoy your day."
And Rinu slammed the Governor, writing: "You are blanketing shamelessness with proper English, my dear Governor.
"
I only hope bandits are not kïlling innocent citizens wherever you are. Enjoy!"
