Twitter has studied Buhari's body language, the ban will not be lifted until further notice.

Buhari has stated it in clear terms, " I keep Twitter ban to myself".

But I thought tiny dot moving in circle can access Twitter using VPN, so what's the fuse about?

Lai don dey talk true small small grin grin
I said it that day that Lai was lying and it was obvious why. Anyone who watched the video would notice from his body language how uncomfortable he was while answering that question.
He knew it would look really bad if he said Twitter had not reached out to them five days after the ban. It would imply the ban was ineffective.
Now see silly excuse. A foreign mission. Is a foreign mission an official representative of Twitter?
Yeye dey stink badly

Beg?

Give your phone to someone to interpret what twitter said in your mother tongue abeg. You seem to have been confused by their English. A normal trait of zombies

No need to twist the narratives son.twitter has called for a truce.buhari has won.I noticed how around 7pm you went offline after twitter let you down.you went to weep,console yourself and then gathered courage to come and just throw brickbats.even if twitter renders a public apology,you will still look for an excuse to be in denial

Let me down how? It took them a week to reach out to Nigeria and you're here saying nonsense. Go back and read what they wrote. That's if you can understand it with your impish comprehension ability. Buhari has won on Kooo. Twitter says they will discuss on areas of "mutual concern". I don't know how that is winning to you

My brother it was a psychological faceoff,a stalemate.twitter shifted ground first,that is a defeat.the fg has the advantage, the high ground and will dictate the terms

Franzinni:
Out of all the problems nah Twitter!?

It doesn't take much to be a dunce.

I guess terrorists and blood-thirsty gunmen slaughtering their own people and burning down towns and villages is really not a problem, they can just continue and keep killing and burning you down.

Very irresponsible and senseless post, the same hypocrites cry and moan every day about Fulani herdsmen while their own homegrown terrorists slaughter them at will.

Comedians..

And how did Twitter shift ground?
By saying they will meet with Nigeria to discuss areas of mutual concerns is shifting grounds?
When did they ever say they will not meet with Nigeria? It's FG that has been throwing tantrums and engaging in media circus. Has the ban been effective? Capital NO. People have been accessing Twitter through VPN including the AGF. So how exactly has Twitter lost?

Don’t mind the head slamming terrorists. They managed to create 7 different terrorist groups nationwide, causing untold bloodshed and suffering. Cursed fiends.

The primary reason for the suspension is to armtwist twitter and force it to regulate its platform in a manner pleasing to the fg not really to stop nigerians from accessing it which is almost succeeding.twitter has backed down and is ready to compromise and come to terms acceptable to the fg.most people including you thought twitter will call the fg bluff and ignore nigeria but unfortunately,it has failed including the veiled warnings by the us mission.you hypocritically claimed the fg is engaging in a media circus while forgetting the louder circus of twitter/us mission.funny.the annoying thing is that if fg were the first to call for talks,you will have been rejoicing ans ridiculing buhari.

In summary,buhari might be a failure at many things but he won this.just leave

The Nigeria FG cannot and will not win this battle. Twitter places it’s priory to on its millions of customers in Nigeria, most of whom are progressives. It will never alienate them or it could lose them.

Again, all it’s going to take is a little more arm twisting and your Sahel controlled government will budge.

Oga,they already called for dialogue first na,the news is everywhere.why are you in pains

Nigeria without a functional satelite in space nor any database is challenging a major stakeholder of internet worldwide. What will happen if twitter use its internet power against 9ja?

Monogamy:
Twitter have no choice than to bend to Nigeria law...

richmond500:
that will be the end of twitter, bypassing a FG law.

end of twitter as in how?
The highest fg can do has already been done. Are you going to arrest Jack or what? Or are you going to invade USA and seize their headquarters?

Nigeria is a small dot in the Twitter big circle. Who do I sound like?

And you know Twitter is ready to come to terms with the FG how? Why don't you let them meet first before you start jumping to conclusions. Twitter ignored Nigeria for eight days and counting. I'm sure even you couldn't have thought that possible

Ignored nigeria how? You funny oh.where they supposed to immediately beg? I thought you guys said twitter will ignore nigeria forever? Now you are changing and twisting narratives and even shifting narratives? Originally,you claimed in the first page that lai was lying and that the us mission never reached out to him.monogamy disgraced you by posting the thread where twitter reached out,you disgracefully recoiled and came back again to bring new narratives.before you ran away,you implied that us mission cannot speak for twitter forgetting that most developed countries govt usually intervene on behalf of their multinationals.even south Africa govt intervened for mtn when we sanctioned them,China intervened for huawei and us has severally intervened for Microsoft and gm abroad...

You lost your two arguments.you are now claiming that twitter will not agree to terms with fg forgetting that in a battle,whoever calls for dialogue or truce first is seen as the loser and almost always gets the short end of the deal....stop living in denial.if twitter never wanted to bend,they will still ignore fg as you implied indefinitely after all people like yiu are tweeting through VPN.up up buhari

Use your head, Mr Bodyguard for twitter.

The number of people accessing the platform in Nigeria has gone down very significantly since the ban.

Majority of people are just not addicted to Twitter to the point of using a VPN just to connect to Twitter.

The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohamed says Twitter is showing little enthusiasm toward the dialogue it initiated to resolve issues leading to the suspension of its operations.

Mr. Liar Mohammed, does that not tell you that Twitter knows you and your TERRORIST run government are FULL of SH*T?

True. While Twitter's shares has appreciated significantly.

cos they don't negotiate with terrorists

How on earth would a top govt personality, come out to broadcast that twitter want to negotiate terms of operation while it was an envoy of a country that called to inform you of twitter intent as stated in this article. This is not how diplomacy and international relation works. VERY LAUGHABLE

Oga Miister, in your mind, you have mouth now abi. No wahala. So Twitter is now "they", the opposition abi? Very ignorant old men we have in government.

Whites have invented most of all we use:

Telephone, Fax Machine, Internet, Computer, Vessels, Spaceships, Programming languages, Turing Machine, Difference Engine, ICs, Calculator, Electroscope, Gas turbines, Combustion engines, Transformers, Robots, Compression ignition, Printers, Light bulb, Aircraft etc.

The zoo does not produce toothpick. And they are not ashamed. They are forming boss by banning twitter: another invention of a white man.

ofcos, it will always come to this, recently Nigeria announce it has started producing its own phones and what we saw are negative comments and how they won't buy the phones.

Y complain we don't produce but u can't appreciate the ones we produce

See the free speech Twitter was promoting....

These are the opinion makers, the influencers encouraging their followers to burn down establishments in Lagos state that finance the infrastructures that attracted them in the first place.

I still wonder what Tinubu did to these people to make them so mad.......but they don't get mad at Diezani for stealing their future.

Posts like this from a well known PDP influencer generated thousands of likes to show how criminality is being celebrated online in Nigeria.
