How does that help develop Nigeria? Is transport companies on bad roads, who don't pay tax and who don't properly license their vehicles nor adhere to safety guidelines a means of developing a country?

That's the economic empowerment for you. Or you want me to construct the road leading to your home town?

If IPOB Kanu can use Twitter to make violent statement and Twitter did not see anything wrong and it was not banned, If Twitter support and sponsor endsars protest, then I think Twitter is not having good intentions for Nigeria, it has the gut to disrespect our president. The action of the President shows we have a leader. China banned Facebook and all was well, what joint statement are they making over just one man business. The problem I see us having here is that the anger of the President is like that of a poor man to a rich man, so he cannot sustain the anger for long unlike China's ban on Facebook, Nigeria practically depends on the super powers, we borrow like hell,we are debtors,we are not strong, we only bark but cannot bark and bite at the same time, the President and his cabinet totally forgot our position. The President who failed to reposition country is now seeing that even the little like Twitter can one day mock him, he should not be surprised, especially when he will be visiting their countries for treatment, when we can equally have everything we needed Nigeria, he has ridiculed Nigeria before the world. It's just that I will not support the enemy against my father even when he has failed, because I made him failed, I did not tell him the truth, that is what the Politicians around him did to him, that is what we as a people did to him. Even if he doesn't like the truth we would have forced it ,on him, the people did it during endsars protest, no one went against the Politicians rather, the Politicians are the real problem of Nigeria, they are so corrupt, they loot,launder our money with nothing to contribute for Nigeria to progress, so we all take blame. We can see what even Ghana is doing to Nigerians in their country, I just pray Nigeria gets better

Please, please and please, cancel all these "we" and put in "I" or "I and my friends". Meanwhile, which politicians did what to who? Did he not have the power and SUFFICIENT TIME (6 months fa, haba!) to select those around him? Is that not another failure on his part? Na wa o.

So Twitter now has the FULL AUTHORITY to be determining for everyone else when a speech is hate speech and not?

Well, you are entitled to your own opinions but in my own opinion, preventing people from saying/ airing their opinion is tantamount to infringing on people's FREEDOM of Speech.

For your information, Mr. Trump only told his supporters to March Peacefully to the Capitol to cheer and support their brave congressmen.

But Twitter deemed it hate speech and subsequently put Mr. Trump on indefinite ban, and that's okay by you.

If Twitter can ban people based on any flimsy excuse they can come up with, what are you now shitting in your pants when someone now decides to ban Twitter?

Tit for Tat.

Case closed.

Deal with it.
They have the right to determine what is hate speech on their platform. They only admitted you into the platform because you accepted to abide by it's Terms and Conditions. If at anytime you default they have the right to reprimand you. Don't you get that?

A country that is dependent on other countries for survival.. We don't produce anything, we borrow loan from China like never before. Useless country governed by useless leaders.
We're living in a global village, we all depend on others for other things as they do on us for many things.

U.S has more than $26.trillion debt and the Chinese do own a lot of U.S. debt—about $1.1 trillion as of early 2020. Japan and China own about 5.2% and 4.6% of the U.S. debt, respectively. Japanese-owned debt doesn't receive nearly as much negative attention as Chinese-owned debt, ostensibly because Japan is seen as a friendlier nation and the Japanese economy hasn't been growing at a 7% clip year after year.8 The other countries that hold the most U.S. debt include the U.K., Brazil, and Ireland. So, forget all that debt issues and invest, when it's time to enjoy the debt, enjoy it. Let me help u with the site that can help u see more of U.S heavy debt profile:

Who and what are you empowering?
Is that the "economic empowerment" that developed those other countries?
I don't expect you to construct the road leading to my hometown. But if I call out the govt for not doing it while chasing Twitter upandan, I expect you to join me.

shocked




Sai Baba now and forever.
Our darling daddy has shown the world that Jack is not his mate.

This Twitter ban will bring more foreign investors to our great country because they are sure that our government can speedily implement declarations.

This Twitter ban has further built my confidence in our darling daddy.
He is a man of his words, in less than 24 hours of declaring the suspension of Twitter's operations in Nigeria, all Telcos have complied and the ban implemented.
Even the Attorney General has cooked up a law for offenders.

But it is not fair that CBN is yet to comply with our darling daddy's declaration of 2015 when he said that as President he will make $1= N1.

It is also not fair that the army is yet to comply with the FG's declaration of Boko Haram being technically defeated.
Our Attorney General should please pass a law that incriminates anyone; bank or individual who exchanges dollars above 1Naira.

Because the speed used in implementing one decree should be the same speed used in implementing other fictitious declarations.


I love your sarcasm! Well thought out!

In the same way, the Nigerian government can decide that Twitter is biased when it comes to what it deems Hate speech or not and as a result, the Nigerian government can decide to thrash Twitter and send it to the Recycle Bin.

Why is that so difficult for you to swallow? undecided

Would they do this if Twitter was a Chinese company?

I doubt it

So why ?

Self Interest

This should be seen for what it is .

A trade issue . Nothing to do with freedom of speech

A country with a market as big as Nigeria cannot allow a foreign company to control so much opinion wthout local accountability

Twitter cannot be allowed to get the powers that it seeks. No one company should.

The West have no problem if the company is one of theirs.

We need to see these issues and envision the consequences in 10, 20 years times leaving Buhari out of the calculus

If there were 1000 Twitters in the world it would be impossible to ban them all
