Misterone:
Yes. Mr President is doing his best possible with what is available. You are one of those PDP apologist. So your comments will always be biased. Maybe you should leave the country and relocate to Ghana where the headquaters of tweeter is based. They may give you some part of the #2 billion to help you see front. hehehehe!

May your life be treated the same way Buhari has treated Nigeria.

As for me, I'm on my way out, enjoy the collapse, many of you don't even have passport.

ba7man:
It's too late to be crying online. Switch off your phone and cry in the darkness instead.

BTW, i didn't read all that trash you typed up there.

You can't read, that's why you support Buhari and nonsense.

Mango tree school product.

ba7man:
Why are you talking too much, trying to prove you know what you're talking about?

Shove your trash up your posterior.

......All these mumus that develop a hard on when it's time to insult their country, meanwhile they're useless to the country.

When we have fools like you defending self destructive policies why won't we talk?

You same fools will vote another tyrant and continue crying about the state of the nation, instead of you to learn and get sense.

No wonder twitter shunned Nigeria for Ghana.

Unpatriotic slaves who want the country to suffer so they can continue riding Buhari's cock.

Misterone:
yeah! It is when the war starts that foreign investors will come. At this time, it is the togetherness, security and wellbeing of the country that matters not tweeter or outsiders.

Ask yourself, is Buhari handling the security well?

Boko Haram is still killing, herdsmen are being pampered, and protesters are being shot.

Instead of the President to take criticism and rectify the issues he's banning everything. The same twitter he banned he was crying about them shunning Nigeria for Ghana when everyone knew this present situation would happen.

What F.ucking unity security and wellbeing are you talking about?

The one in your dreams.

Wake up!

ba7man:
Ode, so how were they promoting their goods and services before Twitter??

I've been on Twitter since when you were shitting in pampers so shut up cuz you obviously just following the trend that everyone is raving.

It's clear you are a foolish child looking for attention.
When you take away a large audience for people to sell their wares, their sales and the overall economy will suffer but you couldn't learn this basic economic rule from your mango tree almajiri school.

Next time tell your useless government to stop begging for ventilators on twitter.

meobizy:
The report is completely baseless and shows why Nigerians hardly comprehend simple write-ups. If anything, it goes deeper into the president's response to anarchy than how exactly the ban constricts daily revenue. I was left speechless on seeing the title, wondering how the service creates so much when it's not petroleum-based. I'm left with assurance that the ban changes nothing. Twitter is not an oil company and means nothing to the average Nigerian.

When your government was begging for ventilators on twitter it meant something abi?

Foolish girl

plaindealer:
Nigeria banned twitter days ago and heaven did not fall.

When you wake up tomorrow, Twitter is still banned.

Nigeria to TWITTER, STFU.

Why was Liar Mohammed crying when they didn't set up shop here?

buckeyemedia:
Warning ignorant terrorist to desist from further chaos? Let twitter pack their bags & leave Idi Amin style, Rubbish Which money is Nigeria losing, why cry more than the bereaved, who is losing the money? Oyibo Slaves.

Uganda is a paradise because of Idi Amin right?

Only zombies will use a cannibal and a thief as the benchmark for good leadership.

And you're even calling him oyibo slave when Buhari runs to the UK every year for medial trips, spending millions of Nigerian tax money abroad and begs the West for loans and weapons.


Irredeemable idiots

ba7man:
Desperate stories that touch the heart just to get Twitter back online.

Shebi una dey use VPN bypass the ban, ehn continue naa and don't loose money.

Uneducated cow.

Do you know how many companies were promoting their goods and services through twitter?

Or the financial institutions that use it as customer service?


You and those you support are completely irredeemable idiots.

The president will be sleeping over this matter because it's not a celebrity that died.

BigBashiru:


Black leads, white follows!

Black leads that's why thousands of Africans risk drowning on ramshackle boats to enter their countries and young men marry 60 year old women for their passports.

Mad people have taken over this post in supporting nonsense.

Zombies everywhere

You can't examine what he doesn't have

GeneralPula:
Twitter wasn’t expecting the Ban at all..

Jack wanted to ridicule the office of the president..

Nigeria isn’t called the giant of Africa for nothing..

I’m sure a lot of countries, both in Africa and outside will be happy with the Ban..

As for the Nlamdi kanu and his pigggz, Shame nah hin go end their matter..

The president is already a global laughing stock

Drakkernoir:
Silly small kids online ranting up and down..

Jack na idiot..he didnt see that tweet...he now saw the presidents own...foolish business man

After God in every civilization...comes government..

Na beg em go beg last

I didn't even know Nnamdi Kanu's official twitter handle, so how would the CEO of twitter see it? Do you think he actually views and approves every tweet on twitter?

Report your own you won't do, now you're complaining.

They used twitter and didn't link their NIN that's why the bullets could penetrate their bodies.

At least he's dead but now we have bigger problems unfortunately

They might have been those men picked up from the church or other random people they took away. People are being murdered by the people who are supposed to protect us but the government's priority is twitter.

Their papa, useless ban

naijapips02:


Buhari speaking in his official capacity speaks for Nigerians and Nigeria. Twitter removing our President's official announcement is going overboard.

Twitter is not the official communication channel of the government.

Now answer the question if the president breaks nairaland rules by posting gay pornography on the religion section is nairaland justified in removing it.


YES OR NO

Decent09:


Must Nigerians use twitter, who does Twitter help, let's the Ban stand pls jare

The ban applies to ALL SOCIAL MEDIA


After twitter, who do you think is next? Nairaland? The newspapers? When does it end?

You know they can find you through this site and even kill you for disagreement, while they run the country into the ground.

Are you not tired of suffering for goodness sake!?

naijapips02:


Did he?

Answer the question,

YES OR NO

BigBashiru:


Because they used military force on us, dehumanized us, if i can find one real pic i saw once il post it.... a white woman in Senegal or so on a royal chair being pushed across a river by africans.... it was dehumanizing and the psychological wounds are real.

So having torn up our lands, going there is our right because they came to Nigeria as illegal immigrants

They have been gone for 60 years, Buhari has billions at his disposal yet not one Nigerian hospital is good enough for him, he can't even draw our Nigerian doctors who are treating Americans and British back here.

Pathetic, unpatriotic, old man.

BigBashiru:


No the UK France and Germany are the most useless countries.

Then why does the dullard from Daura go there for medical treatment each year?

Ugandatales:


The guy doesn't understand how the online business works. Jack will feel this within just one week of this ban.

Which of Buhari's policies have been felt by outsiders?

Just like the failed border closure, it's always us citizens that's feeling it, Buhari will go to UK and enjoy himself with our money.

naijapips02:


You are actually not smart. Twitter is what it is today because of public interactions and opinions. If these move away from Twitter, Dorsey would be nothing but a rich nobody.

He played himself when Twitter started becoming opinionated. Other governments would join Nigeria. States in the USA are already crafting rules against big media.

Twitter is toast. Dorsey is basically an arsehole who thinks he's untouchable.

If Buhari used the official nairaland handle to post gay pornography to the religion section, is nairaland justified in removing it.


Yes or No

Wow, great, imagine the amount we would save if all the non functional refineries were working or even shut down

Officialgarri:
All those people that abandoned Nairaland and fled to twitter will come back and meet us here.

Anything that will bring sanity to this country is welcome.

You know the law applies to all social media right?

Continue to expose your foolishness, don't cry when it bites you in the ass.

Rissamenti:


What ''consequences''?

Nigeria is Africa's biggest economy, and is projected to be the world's 3rd largest population and consumer market by 2050.

She will be a MAGNET of international investment in the coming years.

Twitter needs Nigeria far more than Nigeria needs Twitter.

Are you fucking stupid?

This was reported just last week!

https://nairametrics.com/2021/05/25/foreign-portfolio-investments-in-nigeria-drops-by-77-4-in-q1-2021/

Right now we are at the mercy of terrorists, secessionists, kidnappers and bad state actors. Less and less people wants to invest in the country because they don't want to deal with Buhari's madness among other threats to their business like poor infrastructure and insecurity and you're still talking like it's 1982 and oil is booming.

Twitter didn't move their African headquarters to Nigeria and they government was whining about it for weeks.

We've been through THREE recessions in this administration and you're talking like this.

Are you actually daft?

Seems you don't understand that the ban applies to all social media and you have given the next president the precedent to go after you and your kind for disagreeing, that's if this country even exists by the next election.

omonnakoda:

What is democracy
Twitter is a business
Twitter is not democracy
Are Nigerians present on the Board of twitter? How many?
I would say the same thing for Jonathan, Obasanjo or Abacha

Twitter should not censor the president of Nigeria and if it chooses to do so it should be kicked out of Nigeria. That s the African way

May you continue to be treated the African way for the rest of your life.

Rissamenti:


Your problem is that you are seeing it as a personal beef between Buhari and Twitter. Buhari is acting in his capacity as President, by saying that you cannot operate in our space if you allow secessionists and anarchists to post destabilizing messages on your platform, while disallowing Nigerian authorities from making posts threatening repercussions for breakdown of law and order.

If the country descends into warfare, will Twitter executives come and fight the war? No. They will be enjoying on yachts in the Caribbean.

So Buhari is only protecting his country from descent into anarchy and disintegration.

That's his job.

When he releases terrorists, allows Shiek Gumi to roam around giving inspirational bandit speeches and ruined the economy through his idiotic policies and blatant tribalism why won't there be breakdown of law and order?

Why are you blaming twitter for the overall dissatisfaction of the population?

When people break the rules, report and they will be deleted, stop being silly and think about the consequences of this action

omonnakoda:
It is important to distil issues to principles so that we are consistent whether now, in 2 years or 20 years

First Nigeria is not the first country to restrict twitter. It is officially banned in China

Twitter is an emerging technology and existing legislation is playing catch up
There is a cultural dimension to freedom of expression
We cannot do everything the OYIBO way

I am no supporter of Buhari but the office he occupies is important

I cannot accept a FOREIGN business entity telling the president of my country to shut up under any guise

Still there are many issues to debate and we should debate them without becoming enemies
That is democracy

We must learn how to compartmentalize our emotions and sentiments

The president is not forced to use twitter, imagine if the president went on nairaland to post gay pornography in the religion section, which is against the rules, would you be supporting that?

Buhari and his clowns are the ones bringing emotion into everything with their constant lies and poor performance and I have had it with this bleeped up administration and country full of dull, braindead Buhari supporters.
Rubbish.
