The Nigerian Government has asked Google to close down the YouTube channels belonging to the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.
Lai Mohammed, the Minister of Information and Culture, placed its call on way that IPOB is a proscribed organization, NAN reports.
Mohammed stated this while receiving a team of Google officials on Thursday in Abuja.
He listed such channels to include Biafra Digest TV, Umu Biafra TV, Biafra Digest, and Asa Biafra TV.
The minister lamented that some of these channels utilize local languages and dialects during their broadcast to dodge being blue-censored.
“Your platform is a platform of choice for IPOB, a proscribed terrorist group.
“We implore you not to make your platform available to them for their acts of violence and destabilization.
“We hope you will cooperate with us as well as our security agencies in this direction,” he said.
