Monday turned out to be very tough for many users of Fcaebook, Instagram and WhatsApp as the services of the phenomenal communication brands were down.
It was a global phenomenon, meaning that some 3 billion people using it globally would be affected.
It would however be particularly biting in Nigeria where Twitter remains banned.
The Facebook-owned apps had reported occasional outages in March 2021 and July 2020, which often spark an array of comments on other social platforms.
On Twitter, @WhatsApp wrote, “We’re aware that some people are experiencing issues with WhatsApp at the moment.
“We’re working to get things back to normal and will send an update here as soon as possible.
“Thanks for your patience!”
@Facebook tweeted, “We’re aware that some people are having trouble accessing our apps and products. We’re working to get things back to normal as quickly as possible, and we apologize for any inconvenience.”
Also, @InstagramComms wrote on Twitter, “Instagram and friends are having a little bit of a hard time right now, and you may be having issues using them. Bear with us, we’re on it! #instagramdown.”
