Stop the ranting & incoherent rambling as it's already too late.
Even if the issue was orchestrated by the president personal beef, the end result is good for the generality of Nigerians and Nigeria.

What is this 'end result' please?

Twitter can ban Buhari if he misbehaves like it banned trump. Nothing will happen.

Another Fake news.

No government has access to Twitter algorithm or administrative tools not even US Government.

How do you micro manage a tweet from another geolocation critical of Nigeria Government?

Does it mean Nigeria now has the capacity to moderate US, Europe and Asian Contents including from their governments?

Get lost and stop deceiving your mumu population.

It doesn't mean we cannot still them them directly the truth.


Funny lots. No bi PMB violate their rules with genocidal tweets?


And who said Nigerians haven't been using Tweeter ever since?

They deleted the post of a threat and he dey para. I wondered if they deleted his account what will happen...as if na him open the app for them!

Dictatorship at its apogee.
One thing is sure and has played out, Twitter is under FG and not otherwise. You people will always see thing in your own prism lens but not in a wider spectrum. PMB is a President of Nigeria and he has constitutional rights to send notes of warning to elements that want to turn a section of a country to killing field. Twitter saw it as a personal words and deleted it, that was a slap to the whole nation and not really to the president. He's to defend Nigeria territory, it's part of his constitutionally duties.

You have spoken well. But there is a deductive meaning to those tweets that Twitter made about Nigeria. It may seem blatant but I want you to read and read again those tweets that seem insulting and you'll figure it out. Don't rush to reply me but think it through in relation to the precipice that Nigeria stands in the Human Rights and a nation at large. I am a philosophist, linguistic and I know all this from my experience.

Won pada wa bebeeee......


Twitter made a statement in which they said they don't know President Buhari and which country he runs.

When you're blinded by hate and self imposed narrow mindedness, you will applaud someone who is clearly insulting you.
Most Nigerians who are sympathetic with Twitter today don't know how much of an insult this comment is to even them.
They see Buhari as the target here but there are two elements in this insult.
Twitter says they don't know President Buhari.
But they didn't stop there.
They also added that they don't know the country he is leading. In other words they don't know Nigeria.

Twitter is brazenly saying they don't know Africas most populous nation and the country with the highest concentration of black people in the world. Twitter is brazenly saying they don't know a country where over 11 billion dollars of their revenue comes from with over 40 million subscribers.


Some years ago Pastor Chris Oyakhilome chose to use twitter to communicate some prayer information to Christ Embassy members worldwide.
Within few weeks Pastor Chris broke the records of having the most amount of followers within such a short period.

In their arrogance, Twitter called Pastor Chris' twitter account to question and described the followership as bogus.

Simply put, Twitter believed that nobody from a place like Nigeria had enough clout to garner such followership within such a short time - a feat that no Hollywood star was able to achieve -.

Pastor Chris wasn't prepared for their drama, he pulled out of twitter and challenged his church tech people to design a platform that the church can use. That's what gave birth to Yookos.

Today Yookos is a formidable competitor with Twitter so much so that ex President Barack Obama acknowledged the giant strides made by the platform within such a short time after it was launched.

Eventually twitter confirmed Pastor Chris' account and "apologized" but it was too late.
Pastor Chris had moved his huge followership into Yookos.

Several years later Twitter is saying that they don't know the country that the same Pastor Chris comes from.
That's arrogance taken too far.

Any Nigerian who tolerates this insult is just a self hating sychophant.

Someone says you and your country don't matter and you're jubilating.
Is that not a serious sickness?

********************************************

On a lighter note,
*We heard someone telling his landlord that his rent money for the year is trapped in his Twitter account*

*The landlord too is now abusing Buhari grin cheesy wink grin cheesy wink

Another Buhari achievement. I hope they won't bring nairaland down one day too?

Likely next target since the forum is a hotbed of their critics.
