Twitter freezes the account of Yesufu, BBOG co-founder
Social media platform Twitter Inc. has frozen the account of Aisha Yesufu, one of the critics of President Muhammadu Buhari on social media. Aisha is also a co-founder of Bring Back Our Girls(#BBOG) campaign.
It appears the account was blocked after she launched a thread of posts, justifying her attacks.
The News Agency of Nigeria reported on Thursday that Aisha’s twitter handle bears a notice from Twitter: “Caution: this account is temporarily restricted. You are seeing this warning because there has been some unusual activity from this account”.

Ezekwesili went further to tag Twitter in a tribute to Aisha Yesufu, posted by another twitter user @OnyemaAbuchi, in which he described Yesufu as a freedom fighter who spoke for the voiceless.
Ezekwesili asked Twitter to release the account of her co-BBOG founder.
The former minister wrote in the tag: Here @Twitter is a tribute to @AishaYesufu from her fellow citizen who represents the Voice of many. Ignore the intolerant FG @NigeriaGov and it’s internet trolls that despise and attack Aisha here on Twitter daily. Release her account NOW. She does not deserve to be shut down.

Below are some of her last tweets before her account was frozen.
You praised me when i called Goodluck Ebele Jonathan incompetent, clueless and inept. You insult me for calling Muhammadu Buhari @MBuhari incompetent, clueless and inept.
Why?
PERSONAL INCLINATION?
Are we not facing the same injustice? Is it because you have access to power? pic.twitter.com/7rQNpeVxnW— Aisha Yesufu (@AishaYesufu) August 28, 2019
