It may be the case, that they took a loan from China, to be able to come to such terms. There is, in the end , no free lunch anywhere. Tinubu has shown unwillingness to exacerbate the suffering of Nigeria, for any climate change agenda. Google and Meta are invested in the endeavor. They may as well be bias due to sentiments of the aspirants. Yet, clueless people. Will they flag end to end encrypted broadcast messages on WhatsApp. Twitter is the pool . The Nigeria Facebook community does not engage in politics as such. Nigeria’s online political discussion thrives on Twitter. Yet it is Facebook they are concerned about. 1 Like |

It's a shame that there are people happy over this news. How can Buhari invite foreign companies to tackle "fake news" within the country.... These services "Meta" and "Google" can't be trusted to carryout such tasks that has to do with our election and it is extremely dangerous to our sovereignty to encourage such arrangements (I've not heard of any other African country with such arrangement)... Don't forget that in 2015, Facebook was allegedly used as propaganda tool by the west (US government et al).... to boost Buhari's popularity.... I hope the national assembly can revisit this matter.... The APC government can use this initiative to silence opposition because when you say fake news.... Who decides what is fake news and disinformation? 1 Like 1 Share |

this will not stop Nigeria from being a jungle that it is🤒. Common currency redesign that was supposed to tackle insecurities (bandits and kidnappers) and vote buying (politicians) has now become an anti people's policy🤔. Imagine people queuing by 5am just to withdraw from atm😢 meanwhile politicians and bandits are in stocks of new money😮. Omor I fear who no fear Nigerians |

Fighter2029: About who to vote in the upcoming election, I don't see this election as a means to tackle the issues we are facing. I am in support of restructuring, I think we need a decentralized system of government where states are autonomous with little federal influence over state resources (Let state governors have 100% resource control).... I wish Nigerians will push for restructuring instead of elections that will bring back the same evil people that are oppressing us.... But if I am to vote in 2023 presidential election, I won't vote for Obi, I will vote for Sowore..... I understand many Nigerians are supporting Obi, personally I am yet to come to terms with the craze over Obi because by this time last year Obi was a PDP presidential contestant.... In 2019, he ran with Atiku on the same platform so I think if he wins, his government policies won't be different from an Atiku presidency.... He will be a continuation of the status quo maybe with a little difference (In terms of stopping stealing of public funds) but I doubt if he will be courageous to recover looted funds or make critical reforms.... It is glaring that a Peter Obi government won't be able to call Buhari and members of his cabinet to account for the trillions misappropriated in the last 8 years.... One major reason I will vote for Sowore is because of his fearless tenacity and unrelenting quest for justice.... He has been consistent over the years in the struggle against Nigeria's bad leaders.... In 2015 he like other Nigerians who fail for the APC propaganda supported Buhari but ever since Buhari fellout with Nigerians, Sowore has been critical of the bad policies and has been consistent in publicly condemning it. I understand that the fact that he supported Buhari in 2015 and his inexperience in government (No record of past political appointments) have been issues Nigerians have with him but if I am to vote, I will vote for him..... I believe he will be a better president than Obi.... 2 Likes |
