Another Setback; Facebook Deletes President Buhari's Post. by Wealthoptulent(m): 9:33pm On Jun 04, 2021 |
Facebook, another social media platform, has removed a controversial statement posted via President Muhammadu Buhari’s official page. The President had on Tuesday threatened to treat insurrectionists and those attacking facilities of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) like Nigerian soldiers treated the rebels during the civil war. Mr Buhari, a retired general fought during the war which claimed the lives of over one million persons. “Many of those misbehaving today are too young to be aware of the destruction and loss of lives that occurred during the Nigerian Civil War. Those of us in the fields for 30 months, who went through the war, will treat them in the language they understand,” he said. The statement, which many suggested to be a subtle threat of ‘genocide’, was first deleted by Twitter, a micro-blogging platform. The platform said it removed the tweet for violating its terms and conditions. “In line with our global policies, we’ve removed a post from President Buhari’s Facebook page for violating our Community Standards against inciting violence. We remove any content, from individuals or organisations that violates our policies on Facebook,” the platform stated. Although the post is no longer available on Mr Buhari’s timeline, it is sustained on other Facebook accounts including his aide’s, Femi Adesina. It is, however, unclear if the Nigerian government would suspend the operations of Facebook as it did to Twitter earlier today for bringing down the same statement. With the look of things from world social media org towards Genocides/rules of POSTS flouted by Nigeria's president official Handles, there is another new dimension giving international shame and disgrace to our honor as Country. Its believed that such international org are not nigerians, and can't be mandated to do the wish of our dear FG, ooh No! dem no MuMu! Cc: Mynd44 Dominique lalasticlala

They should ban facebook ASAP.. infact all smart phones should be banned. A country that votes disasters deserve to be in stone age. You will now see some demented hypocrites who supported that speech threatening a section of the country with mass killings now squawking about this ban on Twitter.. 5 Likes |
