Nigeria’s Lawmakers Move Motion to Ban Adult Content Websites

The House of Representatives has called on the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) to direct all Internet Service Providers (ISPs) in the country to immediately block access to websites hosting adult content.

The resolution was passed on Tuesday during plenary following a motion sponsored by Dalhatu Tafoki, a lawmaker from Katsina State under the All Progressives Congress (APC). The House also instructed the NCC to enforce the Nigerian Communications Act and the National Information Technology Development Act against ISPs that fail to comply with the directive.
