Former Presidential candidate, Adamu Garba is currently having what can be termed as a “social media nightmare” after his Instagram account got deleted.
Recall that, his social media/financial app, Crowee got deleted by Google after it got more than a handful of negative reviews by some users. One of such reviews said the terms and conditions of the app was copied verbatim from another app called Spotify.
Adamu Garba who has not posted a tweet since the government placed a ban on the microblogging app took to his Facebook page to share his thoughts as regards the removal of his Instagram account;
"Adamu Garba's Instagram wasn't deleted by Instagram, he told Mark to remove it to update his bio" š
AdvertisementI'm waiting for him to tell Facebook same so he can move finally to crowwe.
Don't blackmail anyone for celebrating his social media ordeal, he called for it, he deserves it!

Adamu Garba is not a just a riffraff but a man with means, connections and platform that supported food blockade to the South, supported regulation of social media and the suspension of twitter from Nigeria. He's a piece of sh1t and I have no iota of sympathy for him.

Woke up to the news that Instagram has deleted Adamu Garba's account a day after Google removed Crowwe from app store. The former founder has left Twitter. May be using burner account.
It is now clear more than ever that the 'big tech' is anti-northš.— Premier (@SodiqTade) June 16, 2021
Instagram deleted Adamu Garbaās account as well. Now he is playing the victim card. In life & in politics, āinterestā rules. Right now? Jack & our interest align. So we must embrace Twitter wholeheartedly. Trashy Crowwe, National interest & Twitter being suspect, are nonsensical.

“They have taken down by Instagram account too. This could happen to anyone for voicing out a contrary opinion. More reasons why we should work excellently on Crowwe”
Nigerians on Twitter are currently reacting to this development. See reactions below;Ā Adamu Garba has always been a subject of criticism on Twitter and other social media platforms based on his seemingly controversial views on current affairs in the country.Ā
He expressed his delight on Tv after the government banned Twitter and he previously filed a Ā£1bn case against the microblogging app for allegedly interfering with Nigeria’s politics during the #EndSARS protest in October 2020.
