In Nigeria, some people get into trouble for expressing their thoughts online.
Nurse Thomas criticized the police and government during a live online broadcast, and was later tracked down and arrested by the police.
Her family and friends were also affected.
Thomas was detained for several weeks before being released on bail.
Nigeria has a cybercrime law that was originally meant to protect everyone, but sometimes it is used against people who criticize the government.
For example, someone was arrested for writing online that a product was bad.
Many journalists have also been investigated or detained by the police because of their reporting.
Now, many people worry that internet censorship will make everyone afraid to speak the truth online, which affects press freedom and internet development.
