4m Videos Removed, 86,000 Live Sessions Disrupted In Nigeria — TikTok

TikTok says it removed more than four million videos and interrupt­ed over 86,000 live sessions in Nige­ria in the fourth quarter of 2025 as part of efforts to strengthen safety and integrity on the platform.

The social media platform disclosed this in its Q4 2025 Com­munity Guidelines Enforcement Report released on Tuesday.

It noted that the platform removed 4.02 million videos in Nigeria for violating its commu­nity guidelines during the period under review.

It added that 99.9 percent of the offending videos were detected and removed proactively before users reported them, while 98.4 percent were taken down within 24 hours of posting.

The platform said the figures reflected its growing investment in automated detection technolo­gies and rapid response systems, aimed at curbing harmful content.

Globally, TikTok removed more than 175.3 million videos during the quarter under review, representing about 0.5 percent of all content uploaded on the plat­form.

TikTok said more than 152.5 million of the videos were re­moved through automated detec­tion tools, while about 8.4 million videos were later reinstated follow­ing further reviews.

It highlighted enforcement actions on TikTok LIVE, with the company interrupting more than 86,000 LIVE rooms in Nigeria for breaching community guidelines.

Worldwide, TikTok said it issued warnings, demonetised content and took other enforce­ment actions against more than 17.7 million LIVE sessions and 9.2 million creators who violated LIVE monetisation policies.
