[b]*TWITTER VS. FGN*

In 2020, India banned over 60 Chinese apps including tiktok yet its citizens never came for the government's neck. We are a sovereign nation, we should not be ruled by foreign business entities.

Twitter is not food, Nigerians should thank the government instead, because these are imported apps used to indirectly undermine our independence, subvert our sovereignty, milk our earnings and make us overdependant as well as enslave us.

Twitter as a business entity should know better than to bite the hand that feeds it... They need you more than you need them and yet they are so brazen and flagrant about the affairs of those who kept them in business. Any Nigerian that is so willing to participate in modern day slavery can relocate elsewhere.

This is just the beginning, next we will severe our Naira from the evil umbilical cord of foreign currencies, by banning importation of all luxury items, especially from the US. This is show of power, a test of sovereignty and you should be ashamed for dragging your government over this.

And don't give me the crap about "I use twitter for my business" because it is twitter that use you and your business for their business. there're 99 other ways to advertise your business.

Some of you cannot even breathe successfully without tweeting, your addiction will either kill you or you kill it. It is time to face the music. Other social medium will take a cue from this incident and learn to respect one of the largest social media market in the world.

I know you may want to argue that Donald Trump never sanctioned Twitter when he had issues with them. Yes! because he couldn't afford to, he couldn't because twitter adds to the GDP of US, whereas it adds zilch to our GDP.

India as mentioned above was once upon a time, one of the largest consumer of tiktok before their government ban it totally since 2020.

This will serve as warning to other entities who have reposed allodial powers upon themselves, who have become the jury as well as the judge. America need Nigeria more than we need them. We'll cut them off like a cancer if the need arise, drastic situation calls for drastic measures.

Who is bleeding now... who is the boss? you deleted his post without fair hearing, he banned your money milking, money draining, secret leaking spy venture without a second thought.

I have never been more proud of my President. I am deactivating my twitter account henceforth solidarity to my President, suspension or not. Let's bleed and shrink their robust account balance to size.

Contrary to popular belief, including myself as a layman in telecommunication I must add. Twitter server does not have to be domiciled in Nigeria before the country can have the power to suspend its operation within its border. All that is needed is to nullify the app on all spectrums. Facebook server was not domiciled in China, but one cannot access Facebook therein.

Considering the size of twitter as one of the juggernauts in the world today, one might be inclined to ask: Was the action of the Nigerian government illegal?

The Answer is an outright, No! This move was carried out by the Association of Licensed Telecommunication Operators of Nigeria (ALTON) who received formal instructions from the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), the industry regulator to suspend access to Twitter,”
⁣
ALTON having conducted a robust assessment of the request in accordance with internationally accepted principles and based on national interest provisions in the *Nigerian Communications Act, 2003* , and within the licence terms under which the industry operates; acted in compliance with the directives of the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) the industry regulator.⁣

This is not a one off occurrence in the world as countries like; Egypt, China, Turkey and Turkmenistan have officially blocked Twitter before us.

You see, Twitter app was "prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of Nigeria, its defence, security of state and public order."

Dear Twitterzens, remember where lies your allegiance. You are a Nigerian first before anything.... be loyal, be proud and be patriotic.

If they are partial, what is Buhari and APC?
Angels and saints?

Am talking About Twitter. I have no business with this government with their useless polices that is kiiling the Nation. They are not saint too..

festacman:
The fact is that the deleted Buhari's tweet that referenced the civil war tragedies didn't hit directly at Nnamdi Kanu, IPOB or ESN if they were the targets. No, it didn't. It pointedly hit the sensibilities of generality of Igbo race in particular and other non-northern ethnic nationalities in general.

In as much as every Igbo person dreams of an equitable Nigeria or preferably realization of the Promised Land, Biafra, the truth is that not every Igbo agree with Nnamdi Kanu's views or methods.

In any case, the Commander-in-Chief didn't have to make a boastful statement to enthrone security and enforce order in South East. He just needed to do the needful: give routine orders and give critical approvals.

However, truth be told, just like Buhari's tweet was deleted, some of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu's tweets deserve to be deleted. But I guess FG has to make representations to Twitter about that.

your statement is neither here nor there, it's is stupid for an elected government to compare themselves with Nnamdi Kanu, I don't know what you are trying to defend here seriously, Buhari is nothing but a fool, you consciously drag the entire tribe because of the activities of ipob. The same idiot find it repulsive to tagged killers herdsmen fulani. And you think is right to remind the igbos of what happened during civil war. Buhari remain an idiot, if you think is right at the this moment to look for who to blame because of the actions of a bigot, you should know both of you are the same .

PraiseGodNoTime:
To Dustin! Before you start using social media, you must read their terms and conditions and policies and usages which Nigerian illiterates like you and Buhari's supporters don't do.

To incinerator! Before you start using social media, you must learn to tolerate other people's opinions and state yours if you have to. Unfortunately, many fat heads and simpletons like you are damn too daft to observe this.

you they mind stupid people, you don't have crops you are busy tilling the soil. Mumu government, their shame they shame me.

Screw jack Dorsey, a white capitalist pretending to be a socialist cannot dictate for countries... but my Nigerian mumu peeps only think in one direction.

Even the west is about to curb their excesses but the Nigerian mugu go just open mouth wa.... No ethics, country pride and ambition ... Just pure cruise, which is the same as stupidity plus the little shit money they get from ads...

another BMC(Buhari media cow) spotted, always following buhari their herdsman to anywhere he goes.

lalasticlala Mynd44 is calling someone a media cow not against rule 2 just because the dude has a contrary opinion.... please help let's sanitise Nairaland..

I came across a face book group called RAVEN Or CROW (Win recharge cards by answering the questions correctly �) which promise to give out a free airtime to it's members each time a anyone answers questions correctly.

It's a and educating group with trivial questions as well as riddles. I was surprised after joining to discover that such a group truly exist! I won airtime too and that's why I'm sharing because I have never seen such a group in my entire time of using FB.

This message should have been issued since yesterday. It explains a lot. Those who are hellbent on misunderstandings the position of FG will still do so no matter the explanation. However, for those with open minds, it explains a lot.

Hopefully, Twitter will start playing by the rules of common sense and stop supporting terrorism against Nigeria. The Twitter ban is an anomaly but a necessary evil. I hope it’s lifted as soon as possible.

For me, it’s Nigeria first. I will never put an irresponsible big tech company from an imperialist country over the corporate existence of my country.

Are you sure its not US, UK and France sponsoring IPOB? If the imperialists see a way to use ipob, bh etc to cause constant unsettlings in Nigeria to cause instability so they can freely mine oil, diamond etc they will. This is the same strategy France is using in Mali and CAR

StaffofOrayan:
Idiotss, Twitter like nairaland is run by Mods, these mods don't give a hoot about you!
Reports are handled on random basis,
But zombies make it sound like Jack is personally monitoring Garbage Shehus tweets!

Same way a particular moniker has been claiming NL is anti North!

Even Seun and hin BMC mods go soon hear am

Jack raised concern. Remember..

Emotions can’t change reality. This is business. It’s simply not good for twitter..

You won’t understand until you own a social app!

justjify:

Is Twitter the cause of insecurity in Nigeria? Y'all Booharideens are daft walai.
Spits!

Ask Twitter when you reach their office in Ghana.

The Presidency should have mobilized BMC to report Nnamdi Kanu twit, majority of Twitter users reported the specific Pres. Buhari's tweet as offensive, which was the reason it was pulled down.

henryobinna:
if you have sense you'd see this is a poorly constructed damage control. But don't worry, I know your history on the forum.

Never was the deleted tweet targeted at IPOB or Nnamdi Kanu. Listen we're not fools in this country if you and other followers of the president are not smart enough to read and understand his tweets it's your problem. But the very vast majority of Nigeria are not daft. We see it all and understand for a tiger does not change or lose its stripes. We know a murderer when we see one.

This is not the first time he's making similar statements.

Is the part in bold a joke or what?

Wake up and smell the coffee bro. Vast majority of Nigerians are against Ipob. Barely 2million Nigerians use Twitter so all the outrage about the ban is felt by less than 5% of the entire population.

I’m somewhere drinking beer right now and over 98% of the folks here are not even aware of the ban on Twitter. So, what’s your point exactly?

go and create your own social platform and di whatever you like there. You can't use my platform to preach war and expect me not to delete your account. Reminding the people of what happened during the civil war is the height of madness from a supposed president. I know people like you will always understand the idiot no matter the direction he is taken.

Confirmedzombie:
We the patriotic Nigerians stand with Buhari on this ban.

Nobody I repeat nobody can make the FG reverse its decision.

Ipob are proscribed and are a terorists organizations and will be treated with the language they understand

Twitter will not tell us they are not aware of the happening in Nigeria.

The platform used for propagating fake news that are capable to cause Violence.

China did it, heaven didnt fall. Twitter must operate according to the laws of our land..

Ipob are terorists and must be crushed

That’s why we must unite and support our government against them. This is not about Buhari or APC. Twitter is undermining Nigeria’s sovereignty and we must all resist that. That’s why most unbiased international analyst are in support of the ban. Twitter should never be allowed to control or vendor the speech of elected world leaders.

sammy329:
Twitter suspension in Nigeria is long overdue

The FG can't allow that American app to keep promoting anarchy.

Ipob has been killing innocent farmers and raping women not only that but also using their cattles to eat farm products and even kidnap innocent school childrens. One nigeria

Guys!.

Continue using VPN to access Twitter even if the ban is lifted. The good news is that Nigerian situation is trending worldwide now because everyone has switched to foreign server in order to use Twitter.

You don't even need a VPN app installed to use Twitter. See this thread for how to use Twitter without downloading VPN app https://www.africason.com/2021/06/how-to-use-twitter-without-vpn-installed.html

For the First time, Garba released something worthwhile.


Dear Antagonists,

Kindly note that we have no other country than Nigeria. Jack was quick to checkmate President Trump's violent Tweets but was never worried about Cownu's authoritative Tirade.

Who does that? I mean, who deletes a President's Tweet all because he Promised to speak to Terrorists, Arsonists, Insurrectionists in the Language they understand? Only Jack.

Why is Jack sympathetic to UGM's cause? He sees nothing wrong in leaving fake news that could destabilized our nation but was quick in arrogantly deleting a rigor statement from the President. Forget, there is limit to being Cheap.

Your Fellow Patriot,

Ambassasor.

Again, I cum in Peace �

Killer herdsmen nko? What's being done to checkmate their atrocities and the genocide they are perpetrating? Instead they are being encouraged by donating lands for grazing reserves no be so? Kidnappers & Bandits terrorising students and travellers nko? What's being done to crush these criminal elements

Soon these idiots will ban the word Biafra

Why is the bastard using Facebook to pass statement?

You must be living in a very remote village. It's been the topic of conversation everywhere I've been since yesterday. Infact, I first learnt the news from my coworkers discussing it and didn't even have a clue what they were talking about till I tried opening Twitter.
And Nigerians being indifferent and desensitized to government tyranny and abuse is proof of everything wrong with us as an unhealthy society and not proof the government is serving in the best interests of people. We're probably the most docile people on earth in the face of misrule, brazen corruption and tyranny. There could be a coup tomorrow in this country and life would go on as normal. So it's amusing you're invoking this indifference in support of your warped perceptions.

Mikecold:
Running to Facebook that also banned the same genocide statement

Your hypocrisy stinks, we don't need any explanation why you banned twitter


Just stop this embarrassing tears you keep wailing for a site you supposedly banned

The ban on twitter is all because Ngozi Okonjo Iweala was once a board member of the organisation. Can't you hear them accusing her already. It is like Ngozi is Nigerias next president. This they have seen and are working very hard to discredit her.
