TikTok said it has removed over 2.1 million videos in Nigeria in the second quarter of 2024 for violating its community guidelines.
According to the Community Guidelines Enforcement Report shared on Tuesday and obtained by Channels TV, Tiktok said the action is part of the company’s ongoing efforts to enhance content moderation and create a safer platform for users.
“Key findings show that 99.1 per cent of these videos were proactively removed before users reported them, with 90.7 per cent taken down within 24 hours.
“These figures highlight TikTok’s commitment to staying ahead of harmful content, ensuring a safer platform for Nigerian users,” the report noted.
The affected videos represent less than 1 per cent of the total uploads in Nigeria during the reporting period.
Globally, TikTok said it removed over 178 million videos in June 2024, with 144 million of those removals facilitated through automated systems.
