Group Calls On Nigerian Government To Ban Facebook | Sahara Reporters

The group noted that despite making millions of dollars from Nigeria, Facebook wants to dictate to the people of the country how to speak and write.

A group has called on the Nigerian Government to permanently ban Facebook in the country, for denial of free speech and limitation of followership on the platform. A video posted on social media shows some young boys carrying placards with different inscriptions, in front of the Federal Ministry of Justice in Abuja. A voice in the background of the video says the protesters were at the Ministry to submit petitions against Facebook.

"This is Federal Ministry of Justice, enough of nonsense. As you can see, our placards say: ban Facebook in Nigeria, stop the censorship now, sharing the confessional statement of a terrorist is not hate speech. "Not only that they have limited the reach of my page, I am not just saying it's about me, it's about every other Nigerian that has been banned on this platform by Facebook.
