TikTok announced that it removed over 2.1 million videos in Nigeria during the second quarter of 2024 for violating its community guidelines.
The company shared its Community Guidelines Enforcement Report on Tuesday, stating that this action is part of its ongoing efforts to improve content moderation and create a safer platform for users.
The report revealed that 99.1 percent of the removed videos were taken down before users reported them, with 90.7 percent removed within 24 hours.
These statistics demonstrate TikTok’s dedication to proactively eliminating harmful content and ensuring a safer environment for Nigerian users.
It’s worth noting that the affected videos accounted for less than 1 percent 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.
“With a proactive detection rate now at 98.2 per cent globally, TikTok is more efficient than ever at addressing harmful content before users encounter it,” the short-form mobile video platform stated.
It, however, assured that it would continue to invest in technologies aimed at improving content moderation and understanding potential risks.
It also reinforced its dedication to transparency and platform safety for its diverse user base in Nigeria and worldwide.
