Micro-blogging platform, Twitter has given reasons for deleting President Muhammadu Buhari’s Tuesday tweet, which has attracted mixed reactions among Nigerians at home and in Diaspora.
The controversial tweet, which was part of a thread by Buhari on Tuesday, reads: “Many of those misbehaving today are too young to be aware of the destruction and loss of lives that occurred during the Civil War.
“Those of us in the fields for 30 months, who went through the war, will treat them in the language they understand.”
Twitter replaced the tweet with “This Tweet violated the Twitter Rules. Learn More.”
A click on the “Learn More,” which is an hyperlink redirects to a Twitter page containing reasons why a Twitter user and/or their content may be sanctioned.
According to twitter: “When we determine that a Tweet violated the Twitter rules, we require the violator to remove it before they can Tweet again.
“We send an email notification to the violator identifying the Tweet(s) in violation and which policies have been violated.
