Ohhh please. I don't support Buhari but it was politics. My anger is why it had to be done with a white company

And what is fraud there? Didn't PDP dish out so many false accusations like the soldier killed and his colleague crying? Didn't your Atiku tell us, including your deluded self that he will sell NNPC to HIS FRIENDS?

Hate Buhari all you want but he's now the president. Your only option is to wait till 2023, or wish that they get things right. Stop praying negative prayers because someone doesnt support your supposedly SAINT.

Shame on your thought process. Bigot

You can't even hide your bigotry.. Coz PDP did it doesnt make it right.. When did PDP become a standard? You're a fake, a fraud and a liar!

Accept your vote in peace and reap the reward of your actions or inactions...

Isnt that a little too late, afterall Atikuloosers also flooded Nairaland and twitter with fake accounts mimicing northerners and yorubas, just to give the impression that atiku is loved, with their fake likes and shares.

Buhari has a secret working relationship with the isreali... during the 80s buhari contacted his friends at Isreali mossad to drug and kidnap a corrupt ex minister and a fugitive Umaru Dikko from london, fast forward to 2017, buhari's order a military exercise as a decoy to relocate Nnamdi to Isreal and released him the week Peter obi was picked to be PDP vice president, and Kanu dented Atiku's image and made many boycott voters registration, Again instead of using oxford data manipulating company Analytica for his dirty job, he opted for Isreali firm .. this are too many coincidence for a former army general

Punch is telling lies and quoting nonsense....Here is the reaction from the Presidency

PUNCH IS NOW A PUNK NEWSPAPER. HERE IS THE AUTHENTIC ACCOUNT OF FAKE ACCOUNTS CLOSED BY FACEBOOK AS REPORTED ACROSS THE WORLD.
NOTHING TO DO WITH PRESIDENT BUHARI.

I shall be reporting Punch to the appropriate Media authorities unless PUNCH pulls down it's lies and apologise to Nigerians for disrespecting them with their lies, and to Pres. Buhari, for fabricating lies against him.

How did Punch Newspaper fall from our favourite paper for nation building, to this conspiracy to destabilise our nation?

✅Here's how the world reported it:
Facebook has removed hundreds of social media accounts and banned an Israeli firm due to "co-ordinated inauthentic behaviour" mainly targeting Africa.

The fake accounts often posted on political news, including on elections in various countries, the firm said.

Facebook has faced rising criticism for failing to stamp out misinformation on its platform.

It launched a fact-checking programme in 2016 shortly after Donald Trump became US president.

In a blog post, Facebook said it had removed 265 social media accounts that originated in Israel and focused on Nigeria, Senegal, Togo, Angola, Niger and Tunisia, along with "some activity" in Latin America and South East Asia.

"The people behind this network used fake accounts to run pages, disseminate their content and artificially increase engagement.

"They also represented themselves as locals, including local news organisations, and published allegedly leaked information about politicians," Nathaniel Gleicher, head of cybersecurity policy at Facebook, wrote in the post.

An investigation found that some of the activity was linked to Israeli company Archimedes Group, Mr Gleicher said.

"This organisation and all its subsidiaries are now banned from Facebook, and it has been issued a cease and desist letter," he said.

The people behind the phantom accounts spent around $812,000 (£634,941) for ads between December 2012 and April 2019, Facebook said, and these were paid for in Brazilian reais, Israeli shekel and US dollars.

Five of the six African countries targeted have had elections since 2016, and Tunisia will hold national polls later this year.

Facebook has faced increasing criticism for failing to eradicate misinformation that could affect the way people vote in elections.

Its either you're are not capable of reasoning or its how you were wired. However, no need responding both your blabbing and insult.

None of them is a saint and the only used party here is the masses and the only side that suffer is you and your gullible lot. Both Atiku and Buhari are wealthy, of same origin, religion and beliefs. Both commit same sin and we should condemn each wrongdoing regardless of whose ox is gored. You, you don't have a side, an ideology, a belief, a motive or even a brain to decipher what's right or wrong.
