Nigeria might lose Facebook and Instagram soon as Meta faces huge fines from local officials. Three Nigerian agencies want Meta to pay more than $290 million for breaking various rules. The company tried fighting these fines in court but lost its case. Meta said it may need to shut down both platforms to avoid more trouble.

Facebook is the main social media choice for millions of Nigerians, who use it daily for news and talking with friends. Small online shops across the country rely on it to reach customers. Consumer protection officials claim Meta used unfair business practices. The advertising watchdog says Meta ran ads without proper approval.

Data privacy officials demand that Meta ask permission before sending any Nigerian user data outside the country. They also want Meta to add special educational videos about data risks on its platforms. Meta believes these demands make no sense and misinterpret privacy laws. The high court gave Meta until June to pay all fines or face consequences.
