Elon the business man....I knew this is exactly what will happen when he eventually takes over twitter. I support him 100%. All those brands that charge people exorbitantly because of their blue tick will now pay a certain kind of tax. Nairaland has kukuma been my twitter for years on end. Only if Seun will upgrade this his site to have additional functionalities, more smileys and what have you. Nairaland has the potential to become Africa's twitter. 40 Likes 5 Shares |

If only seun can charge all users 200 a month or 2k a year to have ability to quote and reply posts. 500 naira to register as a NL member. It'll stop some nonsense I see on here. Seun you should really do something like this then top it off with the ability to block certain people so we don't see their posts 6 Likes 1 Share |

People hate people who are more famous or more successful. Therefore, the idea that this development would place a burden of cost on verified handles would be welcome and celebrated, and Elon would be hailed as "the great man". But let's not get carried and forget to ask the right questions. The verification functionality was introduced to tackle impersonation. At least, we can easily tell when a tweet is made by Atiku today. Besides this, people feel more comfortable conducting business with verified accounts. The question is, is the verification subscription open to anyone who can afford it? If so, what do we have in place for tackling the initial issue? And if it's not open to everyone, does that mean that when you're due to be verified, Twitter will invite you to subscribe? How will it work? 4 Likes |

People will pay. Majority will. People crave status, validation and notoriety. It just makes business sense to charge them. |
