Mixed reactions to South Sudan’s effort to shut down social media
South Sudan’s National Communications Authority ordered Facebook and TikTok to shut down for at least 30 days. This, to control misinformation following reports of Sudanese troops killing South Sudanese civilians. Some social media users in South Sudan say the shutdown will affect their personal and business communications while others say the decision will de-escalate tensions related to the reported killings in Sudan. Mamer Abraham Kuot reports for VOA from Malakal, South Sudan.
