I don't think they are ever getting it back..
It's connected to the US govt

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 .

27Pushing30:

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.

naptu2:


The End SARS hashtag grew organically because many people were talking about it. I bet you that those influencers had never heard of Alex Saab before they were paid to trend the hashtag.


There are no freedoms that are absolute. Every freedom has its limit.

27Pushing30:


Ensars did not grow organically, it was pushed by these influencers and people adopted it.

naptu2:


It grew organically as a response to several incidents involving policemen. People were already talking about it before the influencers jumped on the bandwagon. It had been trending periodically since 2016 or 2017 and every time it trended was in response to an act of police brutality or a suspected act of police brutality.

Most of the people that were talking about it were not paid to talk about it.


Myanmar trended because it was on all the satellite news channels. In fact, it was being talked about daily on the NTA, Channels TV, etc.

How many times have you seen Channels TV refer to Alex Saab?

Ishilove:

Which 'controversial trend' caused this present fuckery?

Ooh! You didn't see my explanations? Be right back, I'm on my way to copy them for you.

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 tweeted that sponsored hashtag had their Twitter accounts suspended.

naptu2:


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.

naptu2:


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.

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.

So this thing happening in Nigeria now is part of God’s plan?

Do you have a conscience at all or because your own family are alright, then God is good and that’s it, other people can go and die?

You can console yourself to hell, it's your choice.
