The next day Lagos State Government launches Ekomedia, a social media for Lagos people only to connect and write their thoughts.

EFCC begins to investigate Twitter Nigeria staff over monies mysteriously found by DSS agents.

CCT asks twitter staff to declare assets.

Northern Senator proposes a bill to ban twitter from Nigeria.

Twitter Office is sealed by EFCC. CSOs protest in front of National Assembly. #FreeTwitter

What do you think about this? Do you agree with him?

Its well

Apc will not allow twitter to flourish in Nigeria hence they took their business to Ghana where free speech is allowed

Tweet for the people by the people.

Democrazy

I think I somewhat do agree with him lala.

Twitter has avoided all these by going to Ghana.

Damnnn niggarrrr
Isoright.....

Just say Nigeria is like zee world
......
Extraordinary everyday

I think Damn Nigarrrr has something important to say up there, but I've come to realise nothing works in this country, be like GTA IV .. Just mingle with the rich and get richer, or mingle with the poor and have a poor mindset forever which thereby makes you poor.

I've also come to realise I've got to stop complaining about ever increasing bills, and start thanking God for my ability to pay them.

Noted

With Nigeria's no power situation........ And all inconsistencies within the 9ja framework.......

This present FG, does not care......


Jack personally conducted his African tour, he saw better prospects in Ghana....... Which business person likes stress.......

Crass PDP propaganda. Facebook, Google, Microsoft and other big techs all have offices in Nigeria and they operate without any constraint.

We really need to stop this senseless campaign against our country. Nigeria remains the economic heartbeat of Africa despite all her challenges.

Lmaooo

And Twitter was quick and wise to have avoided Nigeria and our drama.

most upcoming influencers would flock their office daily to beg for verification tag..

Nigeria has the largest twitter community in Africa, the truth is that we really deserve the twitter HQs here, our government doesn't respect human right at all and that's what is chasing away social media investors. God punish anybody way vote Buhari twice

Located in Ghana but the Market is Nigeria.
Even if they decide to open office in Nigeria obtaining ordinary Sim card will suck all their energy and Nepa will finish them off

Nigeria is too volatile

Buhari sickness is cause by Twitter presence in Nigeria

Case closed. Jack reportedly had a great conversation with Nana Akufo-Addo. Same is impossible with Buhari.

So...

Where is the lie? Twitter dodge a bullet because all this scenario mentioned above will surely come to pass had it been they choose Nigeria as a location for their base in Africa.

Pondering how they will manage to avoid all the difficult or unwelcome situation from the government.

When you have people like Adamu Garba in Nigeria politics, social media giants like Twitter will shun Nigeria. His deliberate efforts to sue Twitter for supporting the Endsars protest is one of the reason Twitter refuse to come to Nigeria.

The intentional acts of our politicians and people in government in obstructing Justice, frustrating fundamental human rights will always scare away foreign investors, and the youths seeking employment will be the ones that suffers the most

lolzz

It is well.

Aptly coined and not too far from the truth based on the predisposition of the said characters, Twitter sabi wella jare...bring the battle closer to the most corrupt nation in Africa to a base near the corruptionists so you can follow there moves closely.

Funny but true!

Politicians will start influencing Twitter. Somebody cannot comment in peace again and risk getting banned just like Facebook.

True talk

Funny but with an atom of truth
