Nigeria is planning to license social media companies that intend to operate within its territory.
Information Minister, Lai Mohammed, made this known in the wake of Twitter’s suspension.
He did not give a deadline for the licensing of social media companies.
However, he said social media firms like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram will be licensed by the broadcasting commission.
