Those who defended the evil suspension of Twitter because they wanted Twitter to have an office in Nigeria, pay taxes and meet other conditions imposed by the Buhari regime, should tell us where Twitter's office is located and the tax paid by Twitter before the ban was lifted.
A country that's led by leaders with no decency or respect for the truth can never fulfill her full potentials. The Twitter ban was never about those conditions. It was about the bruised ego of a despotic and failed regime that couldn't take rebuke of their incompetent arrowhead.
All that Twitter has promised to do are commitments that a responsible government could have extracted from Twitter by engaging in constructive negotiations. But a tyrant woke up one day and decided to shut down an important cyberspace because his genocidal tweet was deleted.
You said Twitter was operating in Nigeria illegally because it didn't register with the CAC. Yet, you lifted the ban without the registration being effected. Is that not evidence that we are led by liars and despots? And some people see nothing wrong in it. I weep for Nigeria.
