Breaking: FG Suspends Twitter's Operations in Nigeria

The Federal Government has suspended, indefinitely, the operations of the microblogging and social networking service, Twitter, in Nigeria.

The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, announced the suspension in a statement issued in Abuja on Friday, by Segun Adeyemi, the Special Assistant To The President (Media), Office of the Minister of Information and Culture.

The FG claims the suspension was due to "the persistent use of the platform for activities that are capable of undermining Nigeria's corporate existence."

The Minister said the Federal Government has also directed the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) to immediately commence the process of licensing all OTT and social media operations in Nigeria.

This is the reason Twitter opted for Ghana s the best business friendly environment to site its Headquarter, because the whole World is aware that Nigeria is governed by a never-do-well tyrant.
