Dear Muslim, Stop Amplifying Hindu Nationalist Voices On Social Over Twitter Ban by Bassa1: 2:10pm On Jun 06, 2021
Please, Regardless of how you feel about the ban on twitter in Nigeria don't amplifie Indian nationalist voices on social media to equally ban Twitter in India.
In India and Kashmir, Twitter platform is the voice of the voiceless Muslims living under Modi's repressive Hindus nationalist party.

I notice a trend of Nigerian fratinizing with India BJP supporters over this twitter ban.
Even some Muslims posting solidarity screen shots on Facebook and WhatsApp.

What many aren't aware of is that India is a country where Twitter has been the most useful platform for oppressed Muslims , Kashmires and Dalits( minority communities at the bottom of India's strict caste system, more like Nigeria's version of OSU in Igbo communities).
Until recently, Muslims in Kashmir where locked out from the internet just so they can't organise or share their condition with the rest of the world. And even now, internet is very slow in Kashmir just so they keep them shut while the oppression thrives.

And same India, Indian Muslims where blamed for the spread of covid19 and prosecuted for called " love jihad" ( criminalized marriage of Hindus who marry Muslim and then convert to Islam). Kashmiris are losing their lands, Muslim get lynched for eating cow, mosque are been destroyed to make way for Hindu shrines and so many more oppressive policies channel at undermining it's over 150million Muslims citizens.

The country is ruled by an extremist Hindu party bent on pushing India into a purely Hindi state instead of a secular as it was designed by its founding fathers.

So if you are out there amplifying India's hindu nationalist voices on social media to also ban Twitter in India, also know that your are doing that at the expense of your fellow oppressed Muslim brothers in India and the Dalit community. Twitter is the number one platform in India where Muslims organise, plead their case and share their plight with the rest of the world. Do not help them by amplifying their voices to take this voice away from Muslims in India just because you support the Twitter ban in Nigeria.

This is likely an action by Nigerians situated in India. I doubt the average home-based Nigerian cares about it.
