FEDERAL GOVERNMENT LIFTS TWITTER SUSPENSION AFTER MONTHS.

The government and Twitter have been in negotiations since over restoring the service based on a set of conditions, including Twitter registering operations in Nigeria. According to him, Twitter has agreed to demands for working in the country. It added that the committee set up by the Federal Government engaged with the Twitter team to resolve the impasse, adding that the resolutions will bring endless possibilities. It will be recalled that Nigeria halted Twitter operations in June after the company deleted a comment by Buhari, provoking an international outcry over freedom of expression. But the presidency said the move had nothing to do with the social media platform’s action. The United States, European Union, and Canada were among those who joined rights groups in condemning the ban as damaging to freedom of expression in Africa’s most populous country.
