 The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Muhammad, says the suspension of Twitter operation in Nigeria was a tough decision the federal government had to take. Speaking at a meeting of information managers of APC government in Lagos, Muhammad described social media as a double-edged sword, providing opportunities and challenges in equal measure. It said he said he provides jobs for many Nigerian youth. But he said it also is a platform of choice for separatist campaigners, especially those who live outside Nigeria.
