Very good. Many of them applauded the suspension of Donald Trump's ACC. The table has turned. In all honesty Something needs to be done about big Tech like Twitter Facebook and d likes gaging ppl from expressing thier views.

Twitter shud stick to it rules Aslong as they do abuse the human rights of others especially to free speech and justice.

Yes influencers can be Abuse their powers so this must be guided bt they have rights also.

Oh really? Since when did Twitter become a government organization? I believe everyone has a right of association.

1) It is against Twitter rules to coordinate and sponsor a hashtag. Hashtags must grow organically. Anybody that manipulates a hashtag can be suspended and this is the number one reason why many Nigerian influencers are often suspended.


2) Twitter still exists within political spheres, which means that you are not meant to use it to do anything illegal. Twitter is an American company and the US has sanctions against Venezuela.

The Alex Saab saga.

The US Government has been opposed to the Venezuelan Government since the days of Hugo Chavez. Alex Saab is a Venezuelan-Lebanese businessman who is closely linked to the Venezuelan Government.

His private jet stopped over in Cape Verde to refuel and he was detained due to an Interpol red notice. The US Government had declared him wanted on money laundering charges.


Some Nigerian and foreign influencers recently tweeted a hashtag calling on the Cape Verde Government to free him. The people who tweeter that sponsored hashtag had their Twitter accounts suspended.

As at the time he was arrested, there was no Interpol Red alert for him! The red alert was initiated after he was arrested! That is wrong and an abuse of power!

That is good for them because they are promoting terrorism in Nigeria, they are the ones funding ipob terrorists criminals.

Influencer in Nigerian sense is useless in real sense. Who are these people, I don't know any of them. But all in all, I think Twitter is right tongue

Jack is a no nonesense guy. Just hope this is not a coordinated effort from Nigerian government especially with recent USA siding with Nigerian government on lekkimassacre

Hungry bastard claiming influencer ... since they no how to collect money and start trending rubbish,let them collect money and unsuspend their account respectively.

This same bastard were happy when twitter suspend Donald Trump,those that are still supporting Buhari will still met their cup full one day!
Lowlife animals like you are easy to identify even on a faceless forum.
Were you not one of those useless animals who supported these so called influencer during the endsar protest? Now you have audacity to call them hungry bastard, even labelling false accusations on them.
While, it's not surprising that most idiots with brains clot will ever realize that Buhari supports is from God.

That's what they do. They get paid to tweet.

I bet most of them had never heard of the guy until they were paid to tweet that hashtag.

My thoughts initially, sir.

Is that so bad enough to warrant an account suspension?

Sheni u see selective punishment?

I didn't understand the last sentence though. Were the Nigerian "influencers" sponsored to tweet in favour of the detained guy?

Was the Endsars hastag not coordinated? yet Twitter even gave them an Emoji?

Twitter being an American company doesn't mean it is not an International platform for airing opinions.

All i see is censorship.

When your enemies gets censored, you rejoiced not knowing the swift hammer of injustice was preparing to strike at you. Someone says something you do not agree with, you instantly block him or her, you say something the Nairalander mods do not agree with, you are blocked as well. Twitter is only following the trend, freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences......E ni wo tan grin grin grin
