Facebook deletes Buhari’s civil war statement for violating policy
Social media Giant, Facebook in a reaction to Buhari’s controversial statement on the Nigerian civil war – which was deleted by Twitter – says doesn’t violate their community standard.
Twitter deleted President Muhammadu Buhari’s tweet where he issued a threat to deal with “misbehaving” elements in “the language they understand”, while making reference to Nigeria’s civil war.
While defending its action, the tech company said the President’s tweet violated its rules.
Unlike Twitter, Facebook has left the message on their platform, as they stated that it doesn’t violate their community standars.
