Even as I agree with him to an extent, I still feel banning it altogether is a stupid idea.

It also seems this man hasn't recovered from his painful exit from Google... imagine Larry Page buying Android OS for $50million without his knowledge.

So you're saying we should also ban Facebook as well?

We should ban all social media in Nigeria?

What effect will that have on small businesses in general, as well as the IT and tech industries in particular?

Just like governments, politicians, businesspeople and cattle herding, social media can contribute towards good as well as bad:

I won't blame social media but the owners and moderators who let lunatics run wild.
They give immunity to crazy mob in the name of traffic.

He is absolutely right especially when you think about some of the comments you see on nairaland. The OP is an example of the weird folks you meet online.

I wasn't aware that you are an idiot and a crazy person, better come off social media - it will help you improve.

Or maybe join Boko Haram, i.e western education and social media is a haram etc
