 Meta to end end-to-end encryption for Instagram direct messages Meta is ending end-to-end encryption for Instagram direct messages, a feature the company says will no longer be available after May 8, 2026. Unlike WhatsApp, Instagram never offered encryption to all users or as a default; only select users in certain regions could opt in on a per-chat basis. A Meta spokesperson explained that the decision comes due to low adoption. “Very few people were opting in to end-to-end encrypted messaging in DMs, so we’re removing this option from Instagram in the coming months,” the spokesperson said. “Anyone who wants to keep messaging with end-to-end encryption can easily do that on WhatsApp.” Meta’s messaging strategy has shifted multiple times over the years. WhatsApp chats have been encrypted since 2016, and the company began rolling out default encryption for Messenger in 2023.

 Kukah has changed politically, owes Buhari apology – Fr Kelvin


A missionary Catholic priest working in Gambia, Rev. Fr. Kelvin Ugwu, has said that Bishop Matthew Kukah of the Sokoto Diocese has become “politically different” from the outspoken cleric he used to be.

Ugwu stated this in a Facebook post on Saturday while reacting to the recent controversy surrounding Bishop Kukah’s comments on alleged persecution of Christians in Nigeria.

According to him, many Nigerians have been cautious in reacting to Kukah’s remarks because of the bishop’s long-standing reputation, but his recent stance shows a shift from his previous principles.

“The truth of the matter is that we are tiptoeing on this issue because the person involved is Bishop Kukah. I bet you, if it were another person, I know what we would have written,” Ugwu wrote.

“As much as I love Bishop Kukah and have been greatly inspired by him over the years, I can say that having followed him for a long time now and having taken time to analyse his ‘then’ and his ‘now’, the Kukah we have now is a different one politically.”

The priest accused Bishop Kukah of failing to apply the same standards of criticism to the current administration that he used against late former President Muhammadu Buhari.

“All the things he criticised the previous government for, we are experiencing the worst of them under the present administration. If he wants to start giving this administration some understanding and sympathy, I think the best place to begin is to apologise to others for not giving them the same understanding, especially Buhari.

“And even more is the fact that this government came into power in one of the most rigged elections in Nigeria, with INEC going back on their words on the use of BVAS. To me, it doesn’t really matter what Tinubu does in office, unless we have to suddenly admit that the end now justifies the means,” Ugwu said.
