Malu if the President of your country is a cow, what are you?

They are the same, an indefinite suspension, till further notice could last for 10 days, a temporary suspension, still whenever we feel can be for 1 month, ie Facebook suspended Donald Trump for 2 years, unknown or unstated length of time, is the same thing as lasting for only a limited period of time.

You mean like ipobs and unknown gunmen destroying and burning Shell investments and oil facilities in the SE?

Nahhh. Nigeria will be the 3rd most populous nation and consumer market on Earth by 2050, after India and China.

That makes Nigeria an investment magnet of the first order.

Nigeria CAN afford to shun any investor that does not play by Nigerian rules.

They are many more on the queue.

One more thing. This is one reason why Nigeria will NEVER allow itself to ''break up''.

It's economic size, and it's power to influence other nations and corporate entities is too precious and valuable to be dismantled.

Twitter is a company that made 1.2 billion dollars last year.

Nigeria has a TRILLION DOLLAR ANNUAL GDP, calculated by Purchasing Power Parity (PPP).

Twitter is a little baby compared to Nigeria.

Nigeria is still the TECH king in Africa, number 1 and remains the main destination for TECH investment in Africa, poor and unprofitable twitter is irrelevant in Nigeria.

Oh sure...

That's why Jack's kissing Buhari's butt as we speak.

YOU are the fool here. The Guardian which you posted, never said anything about a ''U-TURN'', which is what your local anti-Buhari amateur source interpreted the government clarification as.

Rissamenti:
They are just a fly-by-night outfit.

A source that lacks any journalistic credibility or recognition, interpreting a development in a way that suits their political agenda.

WHAT ''U-TURN'' ARE YOU HALLUCINATING ABOUT, OP?

TEMPORARY CAN BE EVEN LONGER THAN INDEFINITE.

After much pressure across the globe, President Muhammadu Buhari on Saturday night made a U-turn on the indefinite ban of twitter in Nigeria, saying the ban is temporal.

Lai Mohammed had on Friday said Twitter has been suspended indefinitely in Nigeria, following the micro-blogging site deletion of Mr Buhari’s threat to repeat civil war genocide in south eastern Nigeria.

“The Federal Government has suspended, indefinitely, the operations of the microblogging and social networking service, Twitter, in Nigeria,” Mr Mohammed said in a statement by his spokesman, Segun Adeyemi.

Since the unpopular announcement, Nigerians from all walks of life have continued to condemn the action. Diplomatic missions of Sweden, Canada, United States, Britain, as well as rights body Amnesty International have all criticised the move and called for its reversal.

Local and international rights body say the ban of Twitter is an attack on the freedom of expression of Nigerians.

Mr Buhari in a statement by his spokesman Garba Shehu has now indicated that the suspension is temporary and not indefinite as earlier stated by Mr Mohammed.

In the eight-page secret memo dated May 4, 2021, Mr Malami told Mr Buhari that insecurity across Nigeria has reached a level that could no longer be checked by existing democratic techniques, saying only a state of emergency promulgated by the president can help return the country to tranquillity.

“The essence of declaration is to allow for suspension of constitutional and legal bureaucratic bottlenecks pertaining to matters of National Security with particular regards to fundamental rights guaranteed under Chapter IV of the 1999 Constitution and processes and procedures relating to procurements, among others,” the attorney-general said.

Mr Malami said the president should issue instruments of emergency and publish them in the federal gazette. Senate President Ahmed Lawan and Speaker Femi Gbajabiamila will be informed about the decision ahead of implementation, he added.

“To douse probable legal tension, it is important for the proclamation instrument of the statement of emergency to expressly provide for the suspension of Chapter IV of the 1999 Constitution and its attendant enforcement rules,” Mr Malami wrote. “The suspension of rights pertaining to matters of national security will then give legal backing for the proclamation of the statement of emergency to be operational and effective without litigious or judicial distractions.”

In the early pages of the document, Mr Malami cited widespread acts of insecurity and blamed prominent separatist agitators like Sunday Igboho and Nnamdi Kanu for fueling the protracted crisis that has enveloped the country and aggravated the social and economic conditions of Nigerians.

When is Mr President Buhari using his power as Commander-in-chief to "show Twitter pepper" for deleting his tweets? Or Twitter will just delete our President's tweets just like that and there won't be consequences

STATE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE.*

*_WORKING TOGETHER, NIGERIA WILL REALIZE ITS TRUE POTENTIALS_* — *OSINBAJO.*

*Former Ogun Gov Daniel tells VP:* _We know your job is not easy, but we are proud of you._

Though Nigeria is facing diverse challenges, it will overcome the problems and realize its potentials especially if people who share progressive views continue to work together in the interest of the country, according to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN.

Prof. Osinbajo stated this Wednesday when he received on a courtesy visit to the Presidential Villa, members of a SouthWest Think-Tank known as IMODOYE led by former Ogun State Governor, Otunba Gbenga Daniel. (Imodoye means knowledge is valuable)

According to the Vice President, “I am very hopeful that this country will truly realize its potentials and I believe that all of us working together can make that happen. If the progressive ideas are put forward and we focus, then this country indeed will work.

“The country is ours, we should make it happen, there will be many challenges but I think that we must be prepared to face it until progressive views of improved welfare for the citizens that we represent, eventually prevail.”

Speaking on the efforts of the Buhari administration to address some of the challenges confronting Nigerians, the Vice President noted that “the best way out of where we are today is to have a massive plan for investment because that is really how to create opportunities for jobs, which is what we are hoping to achieve with the Economic Sustainability Plan, creating opportunities through the solar investments with 5 million connections, the Farms for Jobs Project and the Social Housing Scheme.”

The Vice President then reiterated that the welfare of the people and the progress of the country has always been and will remain the priority of the APC and the Buhari administration.

Earlier in his remark, former governor of Ogun State, Otunba Gbenga Daniel, said the visit was to identify with and support the cause of Prof. Osinbajo whom he described as “intelligent, hardworking, articulate” and a very proud son of the Southwest region.

His words: “we want to let you know that you are appreciated, we are proud of you and the work that you are doing, we know it is not an easy job. We also want to let you know that we want to join you in nation-building, if there is anything, any assignment you want us to undertake, we are at your service, that is why we are here.”

Former Governor Daniel who is now an APC member led the Imodoye delegation which included some other new entrants into the party.
He said having joined the party he has visited the President, Governors, and other leaders including Chief Bisi Akande.

With him yesterday at the VP's office were Mr Dare Babarinsa, a veteran journalist; and Otunba Opeyemi Agbaje, a policy analyst. Others were, Mr Ayodele Olaoye, Mr Kole Omololu, Mr. Kole Abe, Mr Deola Sosanwo, Mr Steve Oliyide, Mr John Obafemi and Mr Demola Folarin.
