The Canadian government has shut down the operations of the Chinese-owned TikTok business in the country.
The government ordered the ban on Wednesday, citing national security risks.
François-Philippe Champagne, the country’s industry minister, in a statement, clarified that the ban includes the closure of “TikTok’s offices in Toronto and Vancouver, while Canadians can continue using the mobile app with caution.
“The government is not blocking Canadians’ access to TikTok application or blocking their ability to create content. The decision to use a social media app or platform is a personal choice.
“The government’s action is to address the specific national security risks related to ByteDance Ltd’s operations in Canada through the establishment of TikTok Technology Canada Inc.”
TikTok has been facing intensifying scrutiny from America and Europe over security and data privacy.
The intractable crisis rocking the Federal Neuropsychiatric Hospital, Enugu is taking a new dimension.
DAILY POST reports that there has been a stalemate over the appointment of a substantive Medical Director months after an interview process was concluded by a Federal Government team.
However, this time, a staff of the hospital, under the School of Nursing, Mr A.C Ndu has moved to jail the acting Medical Director, Dr. Ngozi Unogu, over alleged contempt of court.
This came after Ndu earlier won a defamation suit against the hospital officials.
Speaking to journalists, Chijioke Ezeh, counsel to Ndu, revealed that Justice E.M. Egumbge of the High Court of Enugu State had, in 2020, ruled in favour of the plaintiff in suit No. E712017.
According to Ezeh, the court awarded Dr. Ndu N2.5 million in damages and issued a perpetual injunction restraining the defendants, including Dr. Unogu and Dr. Ubochi, from questioning his qualifications.
“The High Court granted all our prayers and confirmed that Dr. Ndu had the requisite credentials to serve as the principal of the School of Basic Mental Health Nursing at the institution.
“However, the defendants defied the court’s injunction by forming a committee to investigate the same qualifications,” Ezeh stated.
Ezeh argued that Dr. Unogu presided over the committee investigating Dr. Ndu’s credentials despite being a party to the original suit.
“She made herself both a judge and a participant in the matter, which we believe is a contemptuous act aimed at discrediting my client.
“This is pure witch-hunt. My client has been targeted for no reason since 2017. On this matter, we have returned to the court seeking redress,” he added.
On the other side, Boniface Ugwu, representing the defendants, maintained that discussing the matter is subjudice.
“The case is still pending in court. An appeal was filed immediately after the 2020 judgment, and there is also a motion for a stay of execution.
“We have exchanged briefs, and the appeal is still under consideration,” Ugwu explained.
On his part, Onyebuchi Igboke, a member of the Coalition of Civil Society Organisations of Nigeria, urged the government to intervene.
He criticized the hospital management and the Ministry of Health for allegedly enabling misconduct.
“It is high time the courts enforced their rulings. Public office holders must obey legal orders.
“Dr. Unogu has overstayed her tenure as acting CMD, and we are calling on the permanent secretary or the minister of state for health to invoke Section 7 of the Civil Service Guidelines.
“If criminal proceedings are ongoing against an officer, the law mandates suspension until the matter is resolved,” Igboke said.
He further alleged that despite the conclusion of interviews and exams for a new CMD, the ministry has delayed confirming the successful candidate.
“The civil society is concerned that the minister’s failure to act suggests complicity.
“We are also aware that the hospital is yet to conduct any form of staff auditing. This is against the rules,” he added.
Ahead of the Anambra State local government elections, the ruling All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, is in disarray.
It could be recalled that the Anambra State Independent Electoral Commission (ANSIEC) finally expressed readiness to conduct the much-anticipated local government polls.
The election will be the first 10 years after the last one was conducted by former governor, Mr Peter Obi.
Indigenes of the state have all along been yearning for Local Government elections, calling on successive governors to conduct it to give the people at the grassroots a sense of belonging.
The exercise is slated for 28 September.
There have been pockets of complaints from various political parties about the promptness of the election.
Most of the political parties, including Labour Party (LP), All Progressives Congress (APC) have complained about the process.
While some parties have vowed to boycott the process, others are already thinking of dragging the state government to court.
Meanwhile, APGA, which is the party in power in the state, is also in deep crisis.
The two major problems of the party in the run up to the election are factionalization and the crisis of disenfranchisement of intending contestants.
The Edozie Njoku faction of APGA leaning on a Supreme Court ruling has continued to lay claims to being the authentic faction of the party.
The faction has opened a separate state party secretariat in Anambra, away from the state party secretariat of the faction loyal to Governor Chukwuma Soludo and Barr Sly Ezeokenwa as national chairman.
The party secretariat at Udoka Housing Estate have been bubbling with party stalwarts who have intention of vying for the position of local government chairmen and councillors as they were seen coming to pick their forms.
Hon Tony Ezekwelu in an interview told journalists that their forms were in high demand because everyone knows that it is the authentic faction of the party presently.
This is regardless of the fact that the Ezeokenwa-led faction has also sold its forms.
But in a new twist, the state government, sensing the popularity of the faction, moved against them.
DAILY POST reported that on Wednesday last week, officials of the Anambra State government sealed off the office of the faction. They claimed it was a residential building and not meant for political activities.
Ezekwelu, who represents the Njoku faction of the party spoke to journalists, raising the alarm about the sealing of their office.
He described the APGA-led government of Anambra as trying to intimidate them.
He said: “We came here this morning and people were going about their normal duties and coming to buy their expression of interest forms for the forthcoming local government election when at around 10 am, a team from Anambra Housing Development Corporation came and sealed off our office.
“Luckily, I was here in Anambra State because I have been around on official duties to monitor the sale of expression of interest form.
“When we asked them why, they said it’s an order from above and that the reason was that this place was originally meant to be a residential area and we converted it to party secretariat.
“This place has always been used for party business and we are just the recent people using this.
“Too many politicians have used this place and we are not the owners of this property, so we have reached out to the owner of the property.
“We know that this is political and the intention was just to intimidate us, so we told them not to obstruct them, but to allow them to do their duties.
“We are law-abiding people. We were not served any eviction notice. We came in here just two months ago and no one wrote to us. We view this as an act of intimidation and suppression. This is impunity.”
In a latest development, however, DAILY POST has gathered that the Sly Ezeokenwa faction of the party has barred interested aspirants from buying forms for the election.
It was learnt that because of the rancour that may come with conducting primary elections for aspirants, the party decided to print only 21 forms for local government chairmanship candidates for the 21 local government areas.
The forms, a source said, were shared to all the 21 Local Government Area chairmen of transition committees, who were recently sworn in by the governor.
The chairmen, alongside their supervisory councillors, will automatically transit to chairmanship and councillorship candidates of the party.
Interested persons who seek to contest for local government chairmanship lamented that they were barred from contesting.
Speaking on the condition of anonymity, one of them said: “The same day they announced the commencement of sale of form in the party was the same day it was allocated to all the transition committee chairmen, leaving everyone else who has interest to contest in the cold.
“We are not happy about what is happening in the party because this is not the kind of democracy we anticipated.”
Meanwhile, the state governor, Prof Soludo does not seem to see the crisis as anything serious.
He described it as a minor family misunderstanding, which would be settled soon.
Soludo while briefing journalists recently said: “Anambra people seem to have come to the conclusion that APGA is the party for the state.
“It is no longer those years of burning down buildings and turmoil, Anambra is now stable because of APGA.
“That has been the reason for the progress we have witnessed here, and Anambra seems to have come to a consensus that APGA is the party to develop Anambra.
“Under our leadership, APGA has never been stronger than what it is today. You asked this question about the crisis because of the things you see in the media, about our party, but I know that things like these are normal during the run up to the election.
“I know someone else is claiming that he is the national chairman and that is through court order, and I haven’t seen that court order myself.
“This is just a family problem that will be sorted out soon and sooner than later, everyone will come into the same big tent.
“I don’t see any division in APGA. I understand the disputants are in court and hopefully, they will resolve soon and I hope that after that, two of them will come into this tent.
“APGA is a movement that has been used for transformations and I can tell you that APGA has never been stronger than now.”
The Canada-based Nigerian woman, Amaka Sonnberger, who was arrested on Monday risks a potential two-year prison sentence in the country or deportation if found guilty of calling for violence against Nigerians of Yoruba and Benin descent, PUNCH Metro findings reveal.
Our correspondent learnt on Monday that the suspect is set to appear in court on September 2, 2024, following her arrest by Toronto Police on September 1, 2024, for allegedly making hate-motivated threats against the Nigerian community.
Section 319 (1a) of the Canadian Criminal Code, as retrieved by our correspondent from the Canada Justice Laws website, states that anyone convicted of public incitement could face up to two years in prison.
The section reads, “Everyone who, by communicating statements in any public place, incites hatred against any identifiable group where such incitement is likely to lead to a breach of the peace is guilty of (a) an indictable offence and is liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding two years or (b) an offence punishable on summary conviction.”
PUNCH Metro’s findings further reveal that the two-year jail term will only apply to Sonnberger if she is a Canadian citizen and is found guilty.
However, if Sonnberger is convicted as a migrant, she could face deportation if she holds either temporary or permanent resident status in Canada. This information is based on the “Migrants Know Your Rights Guide —Facing Immigration Arrest, Detention, Deportation,” published in 2021 by the International Human Rights Programme at the University of Ontario, Butterfly (an Asian and Migrant Sex Workers Support Network), and the Immigration Legal Committee (No One Is Illegal Toronto).
As stated in the guide, any migrant in Canada who receives a prison sentence of more than six months may face deportation.
The guide partly reads, “If you are convicted of a crime, you could lose your immigration status. Whether you lose your status depends on ‘how serious’ the crime is, the specific crime committed, and the type of status you possess (e.g., temporary status, permanent resident status).
“For instance, someone with permanent resident status could lose that status if they receive a prison sentence of over six months for a given crime, or if the crime carries a maximum prison sentence of 10 (or more) years.
“On the other hand, someone without permanent resident status could lose their immigration status if they are convicted of an ‘indictable’/‘hybrid’ offence or two different offences that arose from separate events, even if they are minor.”
During a virtual meeting on TikTok last Tuesday, Sonnberger was heard calling for the poisoning of individuals of Yoruba and Benin descent.
Speaking mainly in Pidgin English, threatening to poison the Yoruba and Benin people, Sonnberger ranted, “Record me very well; it’s time to start poisoning the Yoruba and Benin. Put poison for all una food for work. Put poison for una water; make una dey kpai one by one.”
Her hateful remarks ignited widespread outrage, prompting Nigerians from all walks of life to call for her investigation and arrest by the Canadian authorities.
In a swift response, the Toronto Police Hate Crime Unit announced the suspect’s arrest, stating that the case would be handled as a hate-motivated offence.
A statement titled, “Suspected Hate-Motivated Threatening Investigation, Woman Arrested”, by the Toronto Police dated September 1, 2024, shared on its website partly read, “Toronto Police have arrested a woman in connection with a suspected hate-motivated threat investigation. The arrest follows a report received on August 28, 2024, regarding a threatening incident.
“Authorities allege that on or around August 25, 2024, Amaka Sonnberger, 46, of Toronto, posted online content threatening the lives of specific members of the Nigerian community.”
The statement indicated that the crimes could involve consultation with the Crown. If convicted, hatred is considered an aggravating factor in sentencing. Additionally, charges related to hate speech, such as promoting hatred or advocating genocide, require the Attorney General’s consent and are often subject to delays.
“When suspected hate-motivated offences are reported to the police, the investigation could be led by a Divisional Investigator with the support of the Hate Crime Unit, or in some cases, will be investigated exclusively by the HCU.
“If it is alleged a criminal offence was committed (such as assault or mischief) and is believed to have been motivated by bias, prejudice, or hate, the officer-in-charge may consult with the Crown. If a person is charged and convicted of the offence, the judge will take into consideration hate as an aggravating factor when imposing a sentence.
“Wilful promotion of hatred and advocating genocide are hate propaganda (hate speech) offences that require the Attorney General’s consent to lay charges. These charges are often laid at a later time,” it concluded.
The suspect had recently boasted that she could not be arrested because she was a Canadian.
