In case you missed the news, Nigeria has banned access to Twitter from devices within the country. I could access with VPN service but I chose not to because screw that.
The cited reason for banning Twitter is that it is a platform that supports misinformation and crap like that. In reality, the ban was because the President had his tweet taken down and doesn't like to be made to look weak.
The beef has actually been a long time coming and there had been previous attempts by the current regime with the social media attack. It is pretty ironic when you consider that his tenure in office is based on the manipulation of truth, social media and brute force.
Due to this situation, I'll not be posting links to my hive posts on Twitter and earning Posh tokens.
This is a rather unfortunate situation for me because I was trying to get into the top 5 of the token holders. I'm still not sure what I'll ever do with the tokens but I like stacking them and watching them grow.
The other problem is that I'll be missing out on all the live Twitter scoops as they drop. I've largely depended on social activities to "predict" the market, but for now at least, I'm cut off from that source of information.
So that's my situation and my cup to bear for the time being. Nigeria is a curse that keeps on cursing and I feel very helpless being here. The plan is to get the hell out and soon that will be achieved.
Until then, I'll focus all my attention on Hive, particularly when I go back to my system later today. This is an opportunity to grow my account and make even more friends on the network.
