Man banned from Twitter after he made a death threat against a mosquito

Lol. What is this one now? A man in Japan has been banned from using Twitter because he made a death threat against a mosquito.
It started on 20 August when @nemuismywife was repeatedly bitten by a mosquito as he was watching TV. He killed the mosquito then tweeted about it.
He wrote: "Where do you get off biting me all over while I'm just trying to relax and watch TV? Die! (Actually you're already dead)." He added a picture of a dead insect to his tweet.
Abusive tweets sometimes get people banned from Twitter but it was unexpected when he received a message from Twitter saying his account had been frozen and cannot be reactivated. He set up a new Twitter account, @DaydreamMatcha, to criticise Twitter for banning him over a mosquito.
He tweeted: "My previous account was permanently frozen after I said I killed a mosquito. Is this a violation?"
Twitter's decision to ban the user has attracted ridicule on social media. His tweet went viral with a lot of people calling out the social platform and asking them to reactivate his account.

Mike Adenuga's son, Paddy says it's nice having a wealthy parent but "it's his money & not mine"

Paddy, son of billionaire Nigerian businessman Mike Adenuga, took to his twitter page early today to address rumours influencing the bad things people have to say about him. There were indeed rumours that he fell out with his father - hence his relocation to the UK a while back and Paddy noted via his twitter page that although it's nice to have a wealthy father, that money belongs to the actual owner (Mike) and not him.
