Let them go. We will create our own WhatsApp. It is time for us to be creative. Do we want to remain the slaves of these people for life

The lagosifcation of the Nigerian economy continues.

Those who refuse to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. The same melee with twitter and the failed advocacy for crowe app

Every company go soon leave even the telecos and they will face the wrath of the millions of young Nigerians who do not social media to distract them.

Do they even know that over 70% of Nigerians are under 30.

All these huge tech companies mining data for free and running adverts in our cyberspace for 'FREE" should be taxed.


AI is out guys, be careful what information you say about yourself. Once you answer any question online, FACEBOOK,INSTAGRAM,WHATSAPP,TWITTER anywhere, it gets recorded against your identity for life, even if you delete that account. They can still pull it up.

If we had leaders, who knew what was going on, they would have warned and protected us.

Telegram.

LET. THEM. GO.

Omo see obsession. I don’t wish to be in your shoes. Hatred and bigotry is a huge burden. It’ll block your ability to think and reason. Heal IJN.

Chief Uche Nnaji, the current Minister of Science and technology is working over time to impress Tinubu. That is why he wrote a stupid Memo against Meta group. Companies are leaving Nigeria and this clown added his own to seems working. Tinubu ministers are kindergartens

You are an unpatriotic fooool

Telegram is just another APP which works like Whatsapp. It's a good substitute and people are using it lately.

Has the government banned or fined Telegram yet?

Are you delusional or you have comprehension/reasoning inability?

They must pay the fine. No escape...

They can't try this in Europe or North America... We must maintain our privacy.

Europe maybe, with the GDPR. Meta tramples all over Americans' privacy too. They collect data on us it would be illegal for the government to collect themselves, then sell it to our government.

Once you answer any question online, FACEBOOK, INSTAGRAM, WHATSAPP, TWITTER anywhere, it gets recorded against your identity for life, even if you delete that account. They can still pull it up.All your whatsapp messages are stored in a database. And if you always carry a phone, they know exactly where you are, makes drone attacks very precise.They have traded free apps to violate our privacy.

If we had leaders, who knew what was going on, they would have warned and protected us.

Telegram.

it has been going on for years.

There is claim of a secret AI company that has been build profile for everyone on the planet. the source their data from public and private posts on internet.

This company has been operating even before the AI bubble.

I read this in a paper more than 4 years ago
