Beancounter93: This is really confusing. When you delete people's speech and then turn around to claim freedom of speech, you are either a born hypocrite or just confused, crooked and deceptive, in fact, you lost all the moral authority and capacity to say anything about freedom of speech. |

I don't think most people understand where Trump is coming from. He's supporting Nigeria not because Twitter needs to be named but that Twitter has censorship that prevents people from voicing their opinions regardless of who it is hurting. Some people that supports this ban should know that Trump is not on their side. He just wants social media platforms to allow people express themselves and I'm sure that is not what the Nigerian govt wants. They just want to gag our voices while theirs are the only ones speaking. 1 Like |

cutechioma1:... Yes, that's what we want and exactly what sane, rational and responsible Twitter users want, but that freedom of speech is not absolute when it comes to hate speech, incitement and terrorism. There's a proposed social media law in the UK vowing to block access to terrorists enabling social media platforms like Twitter.....meaning the UK won't hesitate to ban Twitter for the same reason Nigeria came up with against Twitter. Freedom of speech is not absolute. 2 Likes 1 Share |

plaindealer: Twitter is not the only platform.Twitter does not compel you to register an account or be punished by having to recite" Jack Dorsey " a million times a day. Your government could have just simply boycotted the platform or moved to another platform tjat does not restrict speech as Twitter does By banning Twitter they prove themselves to be autocrats. Which is wrong . |

Ladyhippolyta88: So Trump was a dictator? I wish you'd live in North Korea or Russia or Zimbabwe to know what Dictator means. No offense but you need to know that you're socially unintelligent. You've allowed the media with social media to insinuate a narrative into your mindset now you're simply playing to their gallery. |

Beancounter93: The fact that Twitter is not the only social media platform doesn't mean Twitter is not liable or accountable for what they allow on their platform. We are not saying Twitter must be punished for what transpired on Facebook. I really don't get your point. Btw, by banning free speech, Twitter proves itself to be autocratic. You can not say you are for free while against and delete free speech, you simply can not have it both ways. Twitter is just a social media platform, not the King of the world or above sovereign countries. 1 Like |

Trump the very much slowpoke and deluded man should note and know that if it were in America he can't ban Twitter the institutions there are stronger than he is. In fact doing so would have amount to nothing but a suicide mission and talking about 2024 how and here I think his Whitehouse will be at Florida in Mar a Lago club, West Palm Beach forever. Biden is doing a wonderful and awesome job! I guess with how Trump was tested and dusted even a Mayor or councillor of his district he won't win. nonsense! |

For a start, Trump can do anything about his ban. He couldn't even dare to ban Twitter in the US. Lastly, Trump was suspended and banned while Major General Buhari's tweet was only deleted |

BTw, there was no way Trump could have banned Twitter in America. The lawsuits he will face from Twitter, the ISPs and even millions of Americans will make him think twice. And their congress too will not allow him. America is not Nigeria. |

When the Nigerian government and many Twitter users reported Kanu's hate, destructive, violent, and anti-Nigerian terrorist Tweets, they said it did not violate anything, but minutes after the ban, they all of a sudden deleted the Tweets because it violated their policies. I don't know who is making the decisions at Twitter, but they crewed up and mismanaged the whole issue, they made it easy for the Nigerian government to can them, rightfully so. I don't know why this Twitter outfit got so power-drunk that they think they are above Nations and their elected leaders. 1 Like |

Myer: You are the socially unintelligent clown since you didn't see the dictatorial tendencies of trump. Trump aka orange head was against the media and fighting the constitution and was cozy to dictators like Putin,Kim Jong Un and was okay with Saudi Arabia despite the nation being a known violator of human rights.If you followed his presidency you will see the dictatorial tendencies he had but the American institutions constrained him so he was in check.trump coming out to support what Buhari has done says it all but then you are not socially intelligent to know this Please be quiet nobody is influencing me or has any gallery I play to.I have always disliked him even before he ran for office I have eyes and brains to know that Trump nor get sense.
