<p>The <strong>Sultan of Sokoto</strong>, Alhaji Muhammadu Sa’ad Abubakar III, has sparked widespread reactions after he described social media as a ‘terrorist organisation,’ urging Nigerian security agencies to take decisive action against its perceived threats.</p>
<p>The traditional ruler made the statement during a recent address, a <strong>video</strong> of which was shared by News Central.</p>
<p>In the video, the Sultan strongly criticised the role of social media in spreading misinformation and inciting unrest.</p>
<p><em>“What happened has happened. You cannot come and be doing social media because that is one terrorist organisation,”</em> the Sultan said.</p>
<p>He further expressed concern over the ease with which individuals can fabricate and circulate false stories from the comfort of their homes, warning that such unchecked narratives can destabilise society.</p>
<p>“<em>Social media is a terrorist organisation. What they do; somebody will sit down in his comfort zone and formulate stories, and you will discover that it is not true</em>,” he added.</p>
<p>Reiterating his call for firm action, the Sultan urged security operatives to tackle what he described as the dangerous influence of social media.</p>
<p>“<em>So, social media is a terrorist organisation that we must deal with. Security agencies must deal with this terrorist organisation called social media,”</em> he stated.</p>
