The government of Somalia has just announced a ban on both TikTok and Telegram along with the 1xBet online gambling app with the reason being that the apps were being manipulated by “terrorists” in spreading fake news.
Somalia’s Ministry of Communications and Technology had ordered internet service providers to strictly implement the ban by August 24 or face legal measures.
The ban comes before its second phase of operations against the militant group Al-Shabaab which uses Telegram as a communication platform.
Meanwhile, TikTok has raised concerns for encouraging trends and spreading influence while 1XBet has raised worries about gambling addiction amongst its youth.
“In a bid to accelerate the war and elimination of the terrorists who have shed the blood of the Somali people, the minister of communication and technology instructs companies that provide internet services to suspend TikTok, Telegram and 1XBET betting applications, which terrorists and groups responsible for spreading immorality use to spread graphic clips, photos and mislead society.”
— Jama Hassan Khalif, Minister of Communications and Technology
