Nigerians have taken to social media to react over the removal of Adamu Garba’s Crowwe application from the Google Play store.

Following the Twitter ban in Nigeria by the federal government, Garba seized the opportunity to launch his ‘Crowwe app’.

Garba tweeted;

“Join Crowwe now! Build your country, build your people and build your brand. Join Crowwe now”

Crowwe is a Nigerian multi-purpose app built to ensure privacy in instant messaging, ease mobile payment, and let you connect with friends and family while building business and life.

Just few days after its launch, the app has gotten one of the worst reviews on the Google play store, as Nigerians who downloaded the app left a mountain of negative reviews on the app via the Google play store. Thus, leading to the removal of the app.

A reviewer alleged claimed that the app was being used to recruit members of terrorist organizations.

He wrote;

“This app has been found to be used for recruitment purposes by terrorist orgs like Boko Haram and ISWAP. It steals your personal data which the developers turn in for phising. It is also harmful to your device. In fact, I had to do factory reset to be able to make my device efficient again after installing this app. I would recommend that YOU DO NOT INSTALL THIS APP. Look at the 4 star ratings, pay attention to the names and be convinced that the app is specifically designed to enhance terrorism.”
