ABUJA, Nigeria—“Anger” is the word used by those close to the Nigerian president in describing how the leader felt on Friday, when his aides informed him that Facebook had followed Twitter by deleting a post he made on both platforms.

In the controversial posts, President Muhammadu Buhari had threatened to “deal with” people in the country’s southeast, who he accuses of being behind recurring attacks on public infrastructure in the region.

“He was furious and wanted to deal with both Twitter and Facebook,” an official in the president's office told The Daily Beast privately. “The action [the social media companies] took was embarrassing to the president.”
