    10 Hilarious Memes That Describe Nigerians’ VPN-Free Return to Twitter

    After seven months of fasting, trials, and tribulations, we can finally log on to Paraga’s app without VPNs? Brothers and sisters, this right here, is what we call a miracle. Could all of this have been avoided if Bubu had just unlooked and focused on borrowing more money? Yes. But like Michael Jackson said, “They don’t really care about us.” To celebrate our “legal” return to Twitter streets, we’ve decided to compile memes that accurately describe the situation in the country now that the ban has been lifted.

    1. People who just renewed their VPN subscription looking at the rest of us celebrate

    So some of you were paying for VPN? It’s giving wealth and opulence. What happened to free VPN, dears? Well, sorry for your loss sha.

    2. Banks, brands and other government compliant agencies getting ready to hit the Twitter streets

    They’ve already started posting cringe TikTok challenges. Must affliction rise again? Please, focus on responding to your customers on time. We don’t pay you to dance.

    3. Nigerians returning from all the countries VPN took them to

    Who said you can’t travel without visa? Call them a detty liar and tell them about all the trips you took thanks to your VPN. If there’s one thing we’ll miss about the ban, it’s the way we were confusing other countries’ Twitter trends during the height of BBNaija. Good times.

    4. What the Nigerian government thought we would do, but we have coconut heads

    Beg? Nigerian youths? It’s like they don’t know who we are. Give us fire, and we will use it to turn semo.

    5. Our followers increasing out of nowhere

    Please, why are all of you following us? We know we are funny and the most happening babes in town, but this increase feels a bit suspicious. We are sleeping with one eye opened.

    6. A visual of us trying to revive our phone batteries after months of VPN suffering

    Ayomide, rise, don’t waste my money.

    7. Nigerian police after they realize they can’t harass because of Twitter anymore

    I guess it’s time to go back to tattoos and dreadlocks.

    8. Nigerian politicians ready to begin another round of detty lies

    We see you. We know you. We won’t vote for you.

    9. Customer service agents knowing that they’ve entered one chance

    You guys were not picking our calls. Well, Twitter is back and we can drag your companies by their dirty undies in public. Get ready to start responding to tweets with “Hi Sola, how may we help you?”

    10. Nigerians celebrating freedom from VPN even though we know this is decision was an campaign tactic

    We know what they’re doing, but we still celebrate regardless because we have been in the trenches for too long.

    How To Use VPN In Nigeria After The Twitter Ban

    How to use VPN now that the Nigerian government has banned Twitter.

    On the 4th of June, 2021, the Nigerian government via a Twitter post announced that it would be banning Twitter. The news came almost 48 hours after Twitter deleted a tweet by the Nigerian president, President Muhammadu Buhari where he threatened Nigerians. Twitter deleted the post on Wednesday, saying it was abusive.

    Here’s what the deleted tweet said:

    “Many of those misbehaving today are too young to be aware of the destruction and loss of lives that occurred during the Nigerian Civil War. Those of us in the fields for 30 months, who went through the war, will treat them in the language they understand.”

    You can find the full thread here.

    In the Twitter ban announcement, the Federal Ministry of Information and Communication cited the persistent use of Twitter for activities that are capable of undermining Nigeria’s corporate existence as the reason for the ban.

    Since the ban took effect, several Nigerian Twitter users have tried to process the news in different ways. One of which ways is using VPN to stay online in order to air grievances, discuss the illegality of the ban and how to move forward.

    How to use VPN

    A virtual private network gives you online privacy and anonymity by creating a private network from a public internet connection. With the use of VPN, Twitter users can bypass the ban placed by the Nigerian government.

    Decide on the VPN you want to use.

    There are a bunch of VPN applications on the internet. Consider their price, speed, accessibility, ease of use, etc. After doing this, download the app and connect to one of several locations available.

    Other things to note:

    If you’re a creative who uses Fiverr for freelance work, please keep this in mind.

    Twitter users who also use Binance, a platform for trading various cryptocurrencies have also been advised to not use USA as their VPN location so as to block their Binance account.

    VPN uses a lot of battery, so if you can, only use VPN when you’re about to use Twitter.
