This was made public by Kashifu Inuwa Abdullah, Director-General of Nigerian technology regulator, NITDA.
According to him, Tiktok will be regulated because it should not be purely for entertainment purposes.
The official added that the aim of the regulation is to redirect youth creativity towards productive digital engagement, rather than the “purely entertainment-driven content” currently dominating the platform.
The announcement has sparked widespread debate, with many Nigerians questioning the government’s priorities amid economic and unemployment challenges.
