The Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami (SAN), on Tuesday logged into Twitter and deactivated his account to show solidarity with the Federal Government which had suspended the social media platform last Friday.

It, however, remains unclear how Malami was able to log into his account since the Twitter URL has been suspended by all Internet Service Providers in the country.

Malami had on Saturday threatened to prosecute Nigerians who were still using the Virtual Private Networks to access Twitter even though no Nigerian law makes it illegal to tweet.

The AGF took to his Facebook page on Tuesday, posting a photo and a caption which read, “My Twitter account deactivated’.

However, Malami’s post received over 1,100 comments about 40 minutes later with many of his Facebook followers asking him how he accessed Twitter without using VPN.

Akintunde Babatunde wrote, “How were you able to deactivate Twitter without VPN? You should be arrested.”

Shoyombo Adebisi KingDavid wrote, “Can you explain how you did that without first logging in?”

“This is evidence that you logged into Twitter today via VPN to deactivate your account which is punishable under your unlawful law. Let us see how you will prosecute others without throwing yourself in jail,” Roy Ekwueme wrote.

Another Facebook user, Kazeem Badaru, asked the AGF if Nigerians should throw a party because he had deactivated his Twitter account.

The National Broadcasting Commission had on Monday ordered all television and radio stations to deactivate their Twitter accounts.

The President’s wife, Aisha Buhari, had similarly deactivated her Twitter account.

The Federal Government had last week suspended Twitter barely two days after the social media platform deleted a Tweet by the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), on the Biafran war which many found repugnant.

Na hypocrites all dis useless govt officials b

Never thought of it. As for me no one can force me to deactivate my social media account. Deny me access ? Yes but to tell me to use my hand to deactivate my twitter account? In 2021 in a free world!! Hmmm

Oga abeg tell us, how you take login? Abi na your spirit do am?

Many Nigerians have failed to realise that any law given by the government or the other religion is enforced on poor Nigerians, I see more government officials accessing twitter with alternate accounts via VPN, I see them twitting about how Buhari is the best thing that has ever happened to Nigeria since sliced bread, and hungry, lazy and jobless youths insulting their generations just to defend this silly old men.

This I have seen.

Very unintelligent move.

A Twitter account is a personal thing, not a national or official tool. The fact that he uses it as AGF (and horribly) doesn't mean he shouldn't have a life after he leaves the office of AGF or the government.

There is important information we will need in the future as a country but in a bid to satisfy today, he threw everything away.

People have memoirs and diaries and notes that speaks volume 50 years after their passing. It's akin to burning those diaries and notes and memoirs.

This is why we say those in Buhari's government have very low thought faculties.

What have you seen MOG?

This guy isn't smart. So he used VPN to access Twitter in order to deactivate his account.

But he's threatening with others arrest and prosecution. Education is far from this guy.

Let's see if he will arrest and prosecute himself .

And to think that he's taking this Twitter thing too personal shows that he might be the one handling buhari's Twitter account.

So I just read somewhere that he was using VPN all along to trade in bitcoin that the NG government banned makes it even laughable.

I think he's slow. I think he's someone who needs special attention.

I wonder how he was able to pass and graduate from school.

Twitter is gone. Facebook is next.

Imbeciles

Our government don't know what they are doing.

This government tire me,they give directive and still go back on their words. Very useless government

Why is that when you try to give information to people especially Nigerians,they always tend to insult you. They prefer being in chains than being free.
I gave a link to a book that will help guy's liberate themselves from being slaves to ladies. That will help them be Kings in a world filled with simps and some will result to calling you names. It is well. For those interested you can check my signature,I assure you it is 100% worth your money and time. Just make sure you practice the techniques.

Who e help, confused country, confused citizens, confused leaders confused military.

Clownish hypocrites

FG should back down. Nigerians are too smart for them to handle when it comes to these internet things.

Well, how else would he deactivate his account?

By magic?

Useless government

One law for the goose, another law for the gander.
