The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to use his position to enforce the judgment by the ECOWAS Court of Justice prohibiting prosecutions of anyone on the grounds of insulting or stalking public officials online.

SERAP also urged him to enforce and implement the judgment compelling the government to respect, protect and promote freedom of expression, access to information and media freedom.

In a letter signed by SERAP deputy director Kolawole Oluwadare, the organization said the immediate enforcement will be a victory for the rule of law.
