The Federal Government today hinted that the suspension of Twitter’s activities in Nigeria will soon be lifted following agreements reached in most areas of contention with the platform.
Minister of Information and Culture, Lal Mohammed, who disclosed this while briefing State House correspondents at the end of the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting presided over by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo at the presidential villa, Abuja, said the areas still pending such as Twitter setting up an office and having a Twitter staff of management cadre that will serve as the country representative, are still being discussed.
Giving an update on the government’s negotiation with the microblogging site, the minister who gave more details of the conditions given to the platform, noted that most of them have been accepted and expressed confidence that everything will be ironed out with Twitter within a few days or weeks.
