Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has said that the Suspension of Twitter’s activities in Nigeria will hurt the nation’s populace.
On Friday, the Nigerian government announced a suspension of all activities of the social media platform in the country. The move was announced barely a day after Twitter deleted a tweet from the President’s account for violating its rules.
The President had subtly threatened to enact ‘genocidal’ violence on the South-East over heightened insecurity and activities of IPOB in the region. Reacting to the report, Kanu explained that the development will hurt millions of Nigerians.
