Why We Suspended Niger Delta Avengers account - Twitter by Limitednow: 8:54am On Jul 05, 2016
TWITTER suspended the account of Niger Delta Avengers, yesterday, following the group’s announcement on the micro-blogging site that it had carried out five attacks on key oil installations in the last few days.

Although Twitter does not comment on individual accounts for privacy and security reasons, a spokesman for the site said, Avengers account was suspended in line with the company’s policy, which detailed specific rule pertaining to violent threats.


The rule says that “you may not make threats of violence or promote violence, including threatening or promoting terrorism.”


The Avengers allegedly contravened this rule by using a Twitter account as its main form of communication, using it to publicize claims of attacks and as a platform to criticise the Federal Government.


In February, Twitter said it had shut down more than 125,000 terrorism-related accounts since the middle of 2015, most of which were linked to the Islamic State group.

There are processes to follow. It would not be done without the approval of their legal team.

A good decision and welcome development I must say.

NDA are economic terrorists as long as myself and the good people of Niger Delta are concerned.

We understand the need for emancipation and struggle but by no way can we achieve it by violence perpetrated by self-serving few under the sponsorship of corrupt politicians from within and outside the region.

When will Twitter block Buhari account
Buhari have made more violent speech than Nda
The statement of 97% majority and 5% minority is what is causing tension in south east and Niger delta

Ok, genuine agitation, YES! terrorism in whatever forms, NO!

Tell them to stop their terrorism against the Nigerian state.

Thank you.
Re: Why We Suspended Niger Delta Avengers account - Twitter by Nobody: 9:35am On Jul 05, 2016
Good move.



I voted president Mohamadu Buhari
because i believe in his charisma
especially this trying time. I voted GEJ
out because my believe in him elapsed
and i personally can tolerate him no
more. If by virtue of time and perseverance, i
think president Buhari still have
enough time to do the work i voted
him to do.
I know he isn't a magician. If they
count people that trust him and numbered only two, be sure they are
himself and I.

Anyways..

tell mumuhamado mumuharii to stop terrorizing their region and rendering it useless with little or no compensation.
am not in anyway in support of violence in any form but since it's the only way to get things done and get attention in this country.
this country have proven times without number that you can never use peace to archive anything so you guys should stop this hypocritical "peace" agitation because such doesn't work here in Africa especially Nigeria.

remember twitter does not stop their activities rather it makes it worse

I dropped my support for them long ago when they failed to request for rapid development in the nigerdelta and for resource control for us nigerdeltans. They are now loosing their relevance.
