Twitter will fend well without Nigeria. However, sometimes, these popular apps need to fullfil all righteousness in taking the lead to meet a country when they become uneasy.

Biodun556:
I'm surprised the twitter CEO is ready to negotiate with Nigerian government having twittted Nigerian flag repeatedly. Is he regretting his steps or twitter Ghana office seriously under financial starvation since most Nigerian companies are no longer active on twitter?

bagirajoseph:
nigerians are starving not twitter

mrfreestuff:
You are obviously not starving and I am not and those exporting billions of USD from Nigeria to the overseas crypto platforms and dashing billions to Ponzi schemes are not starving Nigerians. So whoever is starving because of Twitter can use other bigger social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and even Nigerian-centric platform like Nairaland.

babyfaceafrica:
That's twitter problem, before twitter we survived, after twitter we will still survive

nzeobi:
Twitter can only negotiate for formality sake and not as if they are really scared or worried about Nigeria.

Remember that if they panic other countries will quickly ban them and force them to negotiate.

Even Lia said it that Twitter is not showing any serious signs that it wants to negotiate

Hmmm. Twitter is currently a loss making company at a time most of its competitors are making gains. At a loss of half a trillion naira, Twitter needs the strategic Nigerian market if you check out their lose making 2020 financial report released here https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/twitter-announces-fourth-quarter-and-fiscal-year-2020-results-301225278.html#:~:text=2020%20revenue%20was%20%243.72%20billion

I don't think their Ghana office has fully taken off though.

Biodun556:


The out come of thier discusssion with Nigerian officials will determine whether twitter needs Nigerian market or not.

nzeobi:


No date has been fixed for any negotiations believing it's the government making you believe that any thing serious is happening

Grayoso:


This is exactly my position. I have never sent a single tweet in my life and never been on Facebook. How exactly is my life worse off or less fulfilling because I don't use those social media app?

If Nigerian youths are actually smart, should they not be looking to run Dorsey, Zuckerberg etal out of the African market by creating their own dominant rivals to twitter, Facebook etal?


I really don't know how long it will take some Nigerians to shake off 'colo mentality' that makes us think everything imported is superior.

The religions imported into Nigeria, rather than the indigenous ones we practised before their arrival, are the cause of some of our biggest headache as a nation today. Yet we never learn. We now want to die over twitter.

I wonder what will happen if Nigeria bans facebook, instagram and whatsapp? Total pandemonium and possibly even mass suicide I am guessing.

maiquel:

Of course Twitter will take a loss from the blacked traffic but your link is misleading. Nothing in it shows the fiscal result for 2021.
Stop spreading false news.
