Twitter Escalated Boko Haram Insurgency - APC Reps Member, Yunusa Ahmad by kirajustice(op): 3:46pm On Jun 09, 2021
A member of the Federal house of Representatives, Hon. Yunusa Ahmad Abubakar has alleged that one of the reasons why Twitter's operations were suspended in Nigeria was because of terror sect, Boko Haram.

On Wednesday, during an interview on Channels TV, Hon. Ahmad, who is also a member of the house committee on loans, aids and debts management, alleged that Twitter was suspended because Boko Haram was allowed to be 'tweeting'.

He disclosed that his constituents have suffered from Boko haram's activities adding that the ban on Twitter should have come much earlier.

"My constituents have suffered defects of this Boko Haram and they have been using that Twitter, infact that banning should have come much much earlier. So to me my constituents have a relief now".

Hon. Yunusa, who hails from Gombe state, claimed that Twitter was escalating the Boko Haram insurgency and when the interviewer asked why he said so, the honourable house member replied;

"They have been allowed to be tweeting...the insurgents...They have been allowed to be tweeting".

POLITICS NIGERIA recalls that Twitter was suspended from operating in Nigeria by the Muhammadu Buhari-led federal government last week.The suspension was announced a day after the micro-blogging platform delete a tweet from the President's handle for violating its terms and conditions.

The authority you have over the phone lines used in communication has yielded no result in apprehending the terrorists.
The banking systems which you preside over has not helped Matters.
It is twitter that is now your excuse.
What a Misplaced leadership all over the nation.

Hey! Animals in authority! Useless senile, semi death fools who should be in nursing homes are left to go to the National assembly to sleep and talk nonsense!

I won't even join issues with this aged alhamajiri because it'd be a total waste of time.

Mr Lie Mohamed just issued through Daily Trust that Twitter is reaching FG to beg.

What is funny is that in this begging neither Jack nor his representative deem Lie worthy of an appearance

Twitter also hasn't confirmed it has reached out to Nigeria Government

So is FG now a "puppet" to accept an imaginary begging without proving to the world it won the show of force which it embarked on

Won't they allow Twitter come out to apologise or is the statement by the whole west threatening them

He even then claimed he's just supporting his party's position
Re: Twitter Escalated Boko Haram Insurgency - APC Reps Member, Yunusa Ahmad by Grace001:

Twitter is responsible for Fulani herdsmen
Twitter is responsible for food price hike
Twitter is responsible for increase in dollar
Twitter is responsible for greenfield university student kidnapping
Twitter is responsible for scarcity of passport in Nigeria


And the blame continues... Failed country governed by unfortunate people

If polished and educated people stay away from leadership, clowns and their inferiors will decide their futures and those of their kids. Yunusa Ahmad is one of those clowns in politics.

These oldies make shameless comments and still demand respect from young people whose futures they have ruined.

Rubbish

As if it was Jack himself that was posting everything on twitter. Its just a medium to pass information. You guys better ban every other social media so we can just know we do not have freedom of expression on social media

The useless REP just looking for all reason to justify the ban. Can you imagine, Boko haram was allowed to be tweeting. Fools you should have banned the use of mobile phones entirely. Don't boko haram use that too
Re: Twitter Escalated Boko Haram Insurgency - APC Reps Member, Yunusa Ahmad by jaxxy(m):
Yes twitter dropped oil prices and increased our dollar rate too. Twitter allows Herdmen and bandits to kidnap and kill unabated. angry

Twitter is keeping us aware of both success and failures bt offcourse we can understand Nigerian Government for obvious reasons don’t like this fact.

The worst Failures blame everybody and everything but themselves. undecided grin

Other countries on twitter are what? Insane?? undecided

This is how well this bunch of idiots lie to salvage their pot of soup.

Imagine, how can a Nation progress with such people like this Man in leadership? How?

It's saddened to hear an old Man talk like this all because he wants to protect his pay-check. The excuse he gave is very unreasonable...


It's just like saying bad people in the society have been tweeting all along so to stop the bad people in the society from tweeting, shut it down. I can't believe am in this same Country with a fool as old as this
