Nigeria has made the decision to ban Twitter, the quoted reason from President Muhammadu Buhari was “The government said its decision, announced on Twitter on June 4, was due to the “persistent use of the platform for activities that are capable of undermining Nigeria’s corporate existence.”
The ban came a few days after Twitter deleted tweets by President Muhammadu Buhari for violating the platform’s policies.
Twitter did not help its case after the social media site deleted a tweet by President Muhammadu Buhari that threatened secessionist groups in the southeast who had been responsible for attacks on government offices.
Twitter played a very active part in spreading propaganda, disinformation and deliberately rigging the US Election (allegedly – DA) and have been trying the same thing in other Countries – and I am VERY glad that the Nigerian Government have taken this action – more need to follow this example.
