A former Presidential Aspirant, Mr. Adamu Garba has sued before the Federal High Court, the CEO/Founder of Twitter, Mr. Jack Dorsey for endorsing the ongoing nationwide protest, for breach of his fundamental human rights as a consequence thereof.

This is contained in suit filed through a motion on notice brought pursuant to order II Rules 1, 2, 3 of the Fundamental Rights (Enforcement Procedure) Rules, 2009 and Sections 34(1), 35(1) and 41(1) and 43 of the 1999 Constitution.

He beseeched the Court to declare “that the mode of sponsorship and protest of ENDSARS protest” is illegal, unlawful and a violation of the Applicant’s fundamental right to liberty , dignity of human person, freedom of movement and economic right” under the 1999 Constitution.

In addition, he seeks for an order of perpetual injunction to restrain “the further sponsoring and staging the ENDSARS protest or any protest in any other manner” which constitutes an infringement of his right.

Furthermore, he seeks an order of Court to direct the Federal Government “to take measures to stop the 8th to 10th Respondents from further sponsoring and carrying out the ENDSARS protest using force that is reasonably appropriate in the circumstances of the protest.”

“AN ORDER directing the 7th Respondent to stop the operation of Twitter Int’l Company in any part of the territory of the Federal Republic of Nigeria”.

Furthermore he asks the Court to direct the payment of “the sum of €1 Billion USD (One Billion US Dollars) as damages”.

Others joined in the suit include the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, the Attorney General of the Federation, the National Security Adviser, the Inspector General of Police, the Director-General of the Department of State Services, the Commandant of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps and the Nigeria Communications Commission.

Meanwhile, on Tuesday, he took to his Twitter handle and tweeted as follows:

“Dear @jack.

“It’ll do you a lot more good if you stay away from Nigerian Politics. You should know that the so-called #EndSARS protest have transformed into political agitation, capable of breaking law & order in our country. You should not be a moral and financial sponsor to this.

“This is Nigeria; most of the demands initially presented were attended to by the responsible authorities. SARS no longer exists in this country. Your support for a disbanded entity was a needless interference. We cannot allow killings again in Nigeria in the name of protests.

“I understand that this may play well to your business, you have more content, more people and more activity on your platform, but to us is about life, peace and security of our dear country, we cannot allow you to be part of the people sponsoring disorder. We need peace and prosperity.

“I can see you are even sharing a link for people to donate money for this protest, an event capable of escalation beyond our already overstretched security management. If this protest continues to evolve into disorder (hopefully not) as a Nigerian citizen, we’ll meet in court.”
