Imagine a whole country a with population of over 200 million deprived of access to social media just because one man gets his death threat tweet deleted of Twitter and Facebook. That's the apex of Dictatorship!
Chances are you might not get to know what a dictatorship rule is. That's if you don't live in my country Nigeria, North Korea or maybe China. These are the two other extreme power rule countries above my country, amongst a few others. Be that as it may, Nigeria is slowly closing the gap on these two Asian giants aforementioned in terms of zero freedom to live.
If you recall the modern day genocide committed last year on October 20, I wrote about it in this article: In Nigeria; we are been killed with live Ammo amidst our Peaceful Protest for a total reform. It did not get any better, we live in fear as the Tyranny gains more ground and confident day in day out and we might not survive this regime before 2023 due for a Presidential election.
The tyrants ruling my country banned Twitter in Nigeria after a genocidal threat tweet from the President was deleted by Twitter. There is a marching other to arrest and prosecute anyone caught using Twitter via VPNs which we have resorted to to reach the world of what kind of ghouls in power we have.
Strategically the banned was in full swing just under 24hours of statement from the Federal Government, one would argue that of such drive is directed at insurgency and corruption the Nation would have reclaimed her pride as the Giant of Africa.
October 20, 2020 massacre is been swept under the carpet as we speak. Sadly, the world was fixated and obsessed with the power transition during the US presidential elections, hence countries with diplomatic relations turned blind eyes to these crime against humanity.
Recently, pathologist confirmed Ninety-nine(99) dead bodies with bullet wounds from the Lekki Toll Gate shootings, while the whole world was focused on the past US Elections, the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria with his Cohorts pull the kill switch through a direct command to the Army General to wipe out youths including that got tired of the corruption and stagnation of the most populous black Nation of the world.
The Army denied killing any Peaceful #EndSARS protesters, but there were bodies and army issued live ammos. An ongoing panel just tendered to the 99 bodies and yet there was no Rulings and nobody to be held accountable.
Nigerian Twitter Ban shows how low freedom to low live keeps falling amidst rapid economical decay and surging insecurities. Western countries turning citizens seeking refuge away and it's getting worse with National Passport offices on order to not issue international passport to citizens anymore. How dark can it get?
Diplomatic relations don't count with the supposed African giant anymore, Nigeria keeps climbing on the international Terror list, it's not strange many old western allies kept their distance and defile diplomacy seeing all the human rights violation going into full swing.
The hope is, Hive is decentralized and this expose of censorship, zero right to freedom and Government propaganda can't be deleted, muted or I the content creator be traced!
