Things Nigerians shouldn’t post on Facebook

Meanwhile, TheTalk.NG previously reported that a Nigerian-American, Innocent, had highlighted things people should avoid posting on Facebook.

On June 27, Meta approved Nigeria as an eligible country whose content creators can earn ad revenue on Facebook.

The development led to jubilation among Nigerians, and Innocent has advised them to tread carefully on the social media platform. In a Facebook post on July 1, Innocent advised Nigerians to refrain from using cuss words and learn how to respond to certain comments.
