Twitter has expressed “deep concern” over the federal
government’s decision to suspend its operations in Nigeria.
Sarah Hart, Twitter’s Senior Policy Communications Manager
for Europe, Middle East and Africa, who made this known in a statement, said
the company is investigating the development.
“The announcement made by the Nigerian Government that they have suspended Twitter’s operations in Nigeria is deeply concerning.
“We’re investigating and will provide updates when we know
more,” the statement said.
Recall that the federal government suspended Twitter’s
operations in a statement on Friday.
Lai Mohammed, Minister of Information, said the government
was forced to act because of “the persistent use of the platform for activities
that are capable of undermining Nigeria’s corporate existence”.
