Twitter has finally revealed why it suspended some influencers’ accounts, ahead of Nigeria’s 2019 election scheduled to take off tomorrow.

The management of the micro-blogging platform told Business Insider SSA by Pulse, that the accounts were suspended to amplify election-related information from legitimate sources and bring down ‘some problematic accounts’ ahead of Nigeria’s 2019 general elections.

Amy Rose, a Twitter spokesperson, who confirmed that Twitter suspended some influencers’ accounts ahead of Nigeria’s 2019 election, said they are collaborating with the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, and domestic political party stakeholders to “ensure they have clear reporting channels to bring potentially problematic accounts or content to our attention.”

“We have suspended a small number of accounts in Nigeria for spam violations as part of our election integrity efforts in the region.

“We will continue to monitor the conversation closely and take aggressive action pursuant to the Twitter Rules,” Rose told Business Insider.

Some of these Nigerian Twitter influencers’ accounts include:-

Badmus Hakeem (Tweets @Bhadoosky), Jokunle (@Jokunle), Ani Nomso (@ani_nomso), Shawnife (@Shawnife_), Official Bmax (@OfficialBmax), Uche Kush(@UcheKush_), Lazy Writa (@LazyWrita), Rouvafe (@Rouvafe), Abdulaxis (@iam_abdulaxis), Switchme, Enekem Greg (@EnekemGreg).

Atiku is going to be our next President. It is obvious Nigerians have rejected President Mohammedu Buhari due to his incompetence, nepotism, ethnocentrism, desecration of our democratic institutions and outright wickedness!
So, what are your expectations of the new President? What do you want him to focus on in the first 100 days in office?Vote Atiku Obi for real growth, for private sector driven economy. Where a nobody can become somebody without knowing anybody.
You don't finish doing next level here and go to cry on the romance section about your inability to marry.
The choice u made in the politics section can affect your post in the romance section for the next 4 years.
