Nigeria suspends Twitter over President's deleted tweet
The Hindu
Twitter deleted Muhammadu Buhari’s post on Wednesday, calling it abusive, after the President threatened suspected separatist militants in the southeast
Nigeria's government said on Friday it was suspending Twitter indefinitely in Africa's most populous nation, a day after the company deleted a controversial tweet President Muhammadu Buhari made about a secessionist movement. It was not immediately clear when the suspension would go into effect as users could still access Twitter late Friday, and many said they would simply use VPNs to maintain access to the platform. Others mocked the government for using the platform to announce the action.
