YouTube suspending President Donald Trump's channel

-

 


YouTube is banning President Donald Trump's channel for at least one week, and likely longer, as his channel earned a strike under the platform's policies, the company said Tuesday evening.

"After careful review, and in light of concerns about the ongoing potential for violence, we removed new content uploaded to the Donald J. Trump channel and issued a strike for violating our policies for inciting violence," a YouTube spokesperson said in a statement. "As a result, in accordance with our long-standing strikes system, the channel is now prevented from uploading new videos or livestreams for a minimum of seven days—which may be extended."

YouTube also said it would be indefinitely disabling comments on Trump’s account, referring to ongoing concerns about violence  surrounding his recent postings.

Until Tuesday , YouTube had been the only remaining major social media platform for President Trump.  Facebook has suspended Trump's account "indefinitely," while Twitter has banned Trump completely.

  Attorney-General of the Federation Lateef Fagbemi (SAN) has proposed a constitutional amendment to prevent presidential pardons for corrupt leaders. Announced at an ICPC roundtable in Abuja, the amendment aims to exclude corruption cases from the prerogative of mercy. The roundtable, supported by the MacArthur Foundation, brought together legal and civil society stakeholders to enhance anti-corruption efforts. Fagbemi emphasized that the amendment, to be pursued in the next constitutional review, is essential for ensuring corrupt leaders face full legal consequences.
