This ultimatum, which takes effect from Wednesday 29th June, 2022, was handed down by the Director-General, Dr. Fatima Waziri-Azi at the weekend in Abuja at a meeting with a segment of the Agency’s stakeholders. The ultimatum is based on the powers given to the agency under the Trafficking in Persons (Control of Activities of Organisations and Centres) Regulations 2019 and the resolve of the agency to give more effect to it after the grace period earlier given to the organisations to comply has expired.

Similarly, the public watch organization called on the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami to withdraw all pending charges of alleged ‘insulting or stalking public officials online’ against activists, critics and journalists, and immediately ensure their release from unlawful detention.”
