In a presidential address on Tuesday, Uganda President Yoweri Museveni threatened to block Facebook and Twitter’s access to the country if the platforms are found not to be “friendly and equitable” to Ugandan citizens.

Due to admissions from Twitter and Facebook that the platforms have been meddling in the country’s internal elections by banning leaders of the government and pro-government voices, President Museveni took the unprecedented step of banning Facebook and Twitter from the country.
