They were actually warned against
election interference, free speech, hate groups,fake news and incitement etc.
This is to tell you that the western world also knock the social media coys if they infringe or violate the laws of the land.
More lying rubbish. All of these things are happening all the time across the Western world this very moment, thanks in large part to Putin and his troll factories, but nobody has banned or even legislated against any social media companies. Only in thugocracies like Russia have such measures been instituted, and Buhari would dearly love to take Nigeria down that road with the eager assistance of bootlickers like you.

They are.

They all have social media regulations in their various countries.

Various anti hate speech, anti bully and anti violence ngos are all online in these countries flagging and regulating hate speech, Nigeria is regulating hate speeches online they are all shouting foul and so called freedom of expression.

In the United states especially, the anti defamation league will hunt you down and report all your social media profile, if you post hate speech online.

Flagging hate speech and reporting erring social media handles is entirely different from banning people from using the platform completely in utter disregard for people's rights and those earning their living through the platform.

And on the issue of hypocrisy, Lai is quick to forget how he and other APC promoters used this same social media to hound GEJ out of government. Is it not these same US, UK and EU that Lai and other APC stalwarts courted to be able to push GEJ and PDP out? If he has any integrity left he would not be saying what he is saying. But the job of an Information Minister is hardly one that can be done with integrity, particularly with an unpopular government. And Lai must eat.

Again you resort to brazen lying. When has any Western country banned any social media outright? In fact, can you provide a single example of actual Western legislation (not Trump’s failed attempt at banning TikTok by executive order) to regulate or restrict any social media? I bet you can’t.

Even Trump’s attempt to ban TikTok went nowhere, as the USA has properly functioning courts which put a stay on any action. Buhari’s summary Twitter ban is a flagrant violation of the Nigerian constitution, and has nothing to do with any (mostly imaginary) social media regulation you have in mind. Go find another line of specious apologetics to earn your 30k for the month.

Nigerian sovereignty can not be broken by felons on social media, the earlier get that into your brain, the better. We are a country that have our laws which is paramount. The hate speech by KANU wasn't deleted by Twitter but a warning by the president to miscreants was deleted. Are u for real? Little wonder, China banned these platforms. I most times cannot fathom the way some people submit to the western culture. What a shame!!
You don't just blame your failure in life in the gvt.

They were not hypocrites when other presidents before Buhari were in power... Only in Buhari's govt that EU UK & U.S became hypocrites all of a sudden.
Ofcourse they won't be hypocrites if they approve of Buhari's genocidal intentions & silence on Fulani terrorists' killings.
All these APC miscreants sef grin
They were not hypocrites when APC leadership and Buhari were plotting with them to undo Jonathan prior to 2015. grin
