BBC saying all these rubbish? Where were they when UK arrested & prosecuted many students who participated in the Education protests of 2009? Where was there voice wikileak was declared wanted? They human rights in Africa but turn blind eye to same in Europe and Asia. Who abuse human rights like Russia, Saudis and China in Africa? Just open your economy to them, then you can go on and do anything. Their true meaning of human rights abuses is when you refused to allow them colonize your economy through their arms sale, companies and numerous bank used to help politicians laundered funds. 102 Likes 15 Shares |

Twitter would also train Nigerian IT personnel and strategic intelligence officers In all of these Twitterbrouhaha, this is the part We love most. Thumbs up Twitter! Slow and steady we will get to the nation of our dreams. God bless Nigeria. 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 Dem [/b] : AKA [b]DA truth in da building! Truth is not bitter, just that some people are bitter to the truth. We Rise! EXOUSIAng:True that! Nothing to be added.....obviously! Buccalcavity2: benuejosh:You can say that again sirs.

Lol...apart from taxing Nigerians when they do business on Twitter, there is absolutely nothing else this government will gain from Twitter. Their office stays in Ghana and they will not abuse their users fundamental rights and privacy because the Nigerian government wishes so. I make bold to say that if a tweet does not break Twitter's rules, this government cannot make them delete it. I am very sure that Twitter would have read their demands, told them they would charge Nigerians for taxes and remit same and then left them with their foolish erratic demands till they were tired and had to save face with the vague wins they posted for the BMC crew to wallow in. We will see as time goes. Twitter alone as an organisation is more valuable than this mismanaged contraption. They hold the negotiating power. 8 Likes |

Children of hate, frustrations and perdition cannot believe their eyes reading this report from BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation), they rather believe fake reports from Sahara reporters and ipob radio. Mad people dem. God bless all Nigerians that stood with our darling nation in all these. We came out victorious.
