Social media giant Twitter has confirmed talks with the
Nigerian Government, with a view to lifting its suspension.
“We recently met with the Nigerian government to discuss why
Twitter has been blocked and ways to resolve the matter,” a spokesperson for
the microblogging site was quoted as saying by Reuters.
“Our aim is to chart
a path forward to the restoration of Twitter for everyone in Nigeria. We look
forward to ongoing discussions with the Nigerian government and seeing the
service restored very soon.”
Minister of information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, announced
at the end of the Federal Executive Council meeting on Wednesday that the
government would lift the ban on Twitter in a matter of days.
He said agreements had been reached in all areas, except
three that needed resolution.
