Am not a Buhari supporter or advocate. Infact the guy has failed woefully.

But the Twitter ban is OK as far as am concerned. They are very biased and rude need to be dealth with.

If the US takes notice of the tyrant’s human rights violations, this Twitter ban will be an opportunity to impose sanctions on Nigeria. What do you think will happen if the US imposes sanctions on Nigeria? Join the conversation:

Nothing will happen. Nigeria will also impose sanction on the US , that’s all.

Do same? ,so you mean you would have equally brought fulani jihadists from Mali, Niger republic and all over africa, give them arms incase you don't win the next attempt to become the president while making promises?


So if you were buhari ,you would give the army a command to protect the jihadists despite killing your people simply because you want to keep your promise?
You are taking this thing to a ridiculous extreme duchess. It's obvious we're not talking about the same thing.
I'm talking about twitter while you're talking about jihad and Niger Republic and what not. Clearly not the same thing.

with all d issues bedeviling Nigeria, from inflation, a failing economy, rising unemployment, kidnappings, failing infrastructure, failure on d part of govt to render public service, corruption e.t.c., it is Twitter that u and d govt feels is d most important issue at hand. As we speak, about 200 school kids are still in captivity. Nigeria can't deliver something as simple as passport to it's people and u say nigeria is a sovereign nation. Electricity is still epileptic in many parts of nigeria. So is deleting buharis tweet a more important issue than d business of governance which this govt has failed at deliveriing?
oga I'm not a fan of Buhari and his style of governance, but you don't expect me to disagree with him on every issue.
With the way you're emotionally charged right now, I'm very sure if you're a mod, you would have suspended me from nairaland indefinitely. There's no correlation between what you wrote up there (which I agree with by the way) and my opinion. Which is that, it was pointless for twitter to delete the presidents tweet. Buhari's reaction may have been too extreme, but given the situation, if I were president, I might have done the same thing too. Banned twitter.

Ode jati jati, una too like free things. You want them to run "Promoted tweets and Accounts" for you free of charge, so you'll pocket the entire profit and gain customers. You approached them for Business services, yet you don't want to pay. Na your type dey price haircut for salon. Na ur type go wan buy 100 naira suya but una go dey collect "taste" anyhow. No be money dem dey use take dey find money? Check the price range from promoted tweets and accounts, you'll see that you're making the most money. Jack collects just $1.40 annually while his ideas make Countries like Nigeria millions of dollars daily. You're of no use to him. Y'all came to him, he didn't come for you. Deactivate your account. Nobody gives a fúck or will miss your bítch ass. You've done it before and you ended up creating other accounts. Don't make me pull out your receipts.

Rantings of a mad man! grin

Arrant nonsense, how on earth would a nations decision (irrespective of motive) to control use of a social media or out rightly ban use of any of such be an issue to attract sanction?
Gentlemen let us not let our frustration about government action make us turn our nation to tissue paper worth!!!
It does not worth it , it is preposterous for us to begin any debate about American imposing sanctions on us because of twitter ban
America is just a nation as Nigeria is also so we are both sovereign states.
It smacks of inferiority to raise this nonsensical issue as this not to talk of engaging in the discuss at all

This dictatorial dwarf who has consistently benefitted from the Nigerian rot again?!

It is not your fault, I blame the Southern founding fathers and other Southern leaders who allow your type to benefit from policies skewed in favor of the North. How you earned a 1st class from ABU is still suspect to me.

On a serious note, how much is our struggling economy worth to the world? South Africa’s $9 billion internet revenue is a quarter of Nigeria’s entire budget. Please show me some data so we can have an informed argument, don’t come at me without numbers. We know we’re the richest economy in the world (at least in some people’s heads), now show me data and let’s discuss this further

This government has serious human rights abuse allegations against it, and while you see this as just a Twitter ban, many others see it as an attempt to shut down dissenting voices and freedom of expression. We’re looking from different lenses

Speaking of correlation, how does ur comment above correlate with what I said? What has being d mod& suspension got to do with d post I made? How did u arrive at ur conclusion? Can u kindly identify d "emotionally charged" u are referring to?
