You guys keep repeating and over flogging this topic.... Na wa oh!

Despite not siting its Africa's office in Nigeria, Twitter made clear its target market is Nigeria.

Twitter, the microblogging and social networking service, has announced that it is actively building a team in Ghana and is considering opening an office there.

The company in a post by Kayvon Beykpour and Uche Adegbite, Twitter’s Product Lead, and Director, Product Management, Global Markets, respectively, on Monday said, “Today, in line with our growth strategy, we’re excited to announce that we are now actively building a team in Ghana.”

The social networking service said its new team members would be working remotely under its work-from-home policies while it explores “the opportunity to open an office in Ghana in the future”.

Amid reactions from Nigerians that the continent’s biggest market was snubbed, Twitter said it chose Ghana as the country is a champion of democracy.

It said its decision was informed by Ghana’s “support for free speech and online freedoms.”

It added that Ghana’s recent appointment to host the Secretariat of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) also influenced its decision.

Twitter targets Nigerians for roles

Despite not siting its Africa’s office in Nigeria, Twitter made clear its target market is Nigeria, apparently given its population.

In its job advertisements, the company said of its curator positions: “This role is based in Accra, Ghana and focused on Nigeria.”

It said the ideal candidate to occupy the positions “should have a deep, non-partisan, understanding of Nigerian news and politics.”

It also said candidates with understanding of English Pidgin, Yoruba, Hausa and Igbo, will have advantage.

According to statista.com, in 2020 alone, the number of social media users in Nigeria reached roughly 28 million. Of this figure, 61.4 per cent have active Twitter handles.

However, in Ghana, it said as of January 2021, Ghana registered approximately eight million active social media users, up from six million in 2019. And of this figure, only 28.78 per cent are registered on Twitter.

I will like to shed more light on this thread below:

Yes. Sleeping with a married woman/man can bring bad luck.

My Story:

She came to my office seeking to be a vendor for the company I use to work for. Black beauty, busty and good ass. After coming to meet me for about 3 times, I decided to make her a vendor with little supply; low PO(purchase order) value. After some days, I wooed her and invited her over to my place. I had asked ab initio, if she was married and she said No! No ring on her finger.

We had sex and after the sex I discovered she wasn't happy. I asked and she said nothing.
Later, I increased the value of the PO and even directed her to a bank where she could get loan for the supply. Bank marketers usually come to my office asking me to send down my vendors to their office for PO financing.

After some few months I was transferred to another state. She came to my new office with a bulgy pregnancy and I got so shocked. I immediately took her outside for questioning.
She said she was sorry for not telling me she was married. She said she did it cos she wanted the PO badly. Her husband lost his job and she wanted to do something to help out. She said she was pregnant the day we had sex and she was sad cos she cheated on her husband.
I prepared a PO for her to supply, with a very high value.
After some months she called that she lost her babies(twins) while giving birth. I felt so bad for her.

Not quite long after the incident, I lost my job. Came to Lagos. Stayed few years at home, got another job in Delta......lost it within 6 months. Came back to Lagos again. Stayed some years jobless. Got another job, lost it within 2 years. While all these were going, all the relationships I ventured into, crashed. I got another job in Lagos and lost it within a year.
I had lost so many job opportunities....I mean jobs that I had almost gotten would just slip away!
Nothing has really been working in my life since then.

I tried calling the lady but for years her number has been switched off. I guess she doesn't use the number anymore. I have prayed and prayed for forgiveness.

It is really not my fault cos she lied, but then I should have been more careful. I should have paid attention to little detail about her.

Maybe the sex wasn't the cause of my misfortune.....I really don't know, all I know is that my life was going on smoothly before the sex with her.

Please, you all should desist from sleeping with married men/women.

That it didn't affect Mr/Mrs A, doesn't mean it can't affect you, if you try it.

You're sick

Germany has entered into historic talks to restitute its holdings of Benin bronzes to their home country of Nigeria. The move will have wide-ranging consequences for German museums, not least Berlin’s splashy new Humboldt Forum, and major implications for the growing campaign for restitution across Europe.

Last week, the head of the German foreign ministry’s culture department, Andreas Görgen, traveled to Benin City to enter into discussions with Edo State Governor Godwin Obaseki over the contested Benin bronzes, a historic array of bronze reliefs, carved ivory, and other sculptures that were looted from Benin City by British troops in 1897 when they razed the royal Benin palace in a punitive expedition. Swathes of these objects are today spread out across museums in the West.
Now, Germany says it will return its share of these treasured artworks and artifacts to Nigeria to display at the Edo Museum of West African Art, a museum at the former palace site in Benin City, which is being designed by architect David Adjaye to incorporate some of the ruins.

Full ownership of the museum objects is expected to be transferred to Nigerian officials. In a press statement after their meeting last week, Obaseki confirmed that his government is preparing to launch an independent trust, made up of “the Royal Family, Edo State Government, the Federal Government, and international stakeholders,” to receive the objects.

Görgen said that the German government would assist with the Nigerian program, helping with training and archeological projects onsite, and that he would “ensure the retrieval of the objects.”

Hartmut Dorgerloh, director of the Humboldt Forum, told Artnet News that restitution has not been formally decided and that original reporting on the subject, which stated that the objects will not go on display at Humboldt Forum, were misleading. The Berlin Ethnological Collection, which is set to go on display at the new museum, includes about 530 historical objects from the Kingdom of Benin, including 440 bronzes.

“As far as we know today, the Benin bronzes were largely acquired illegally,” Dorgerloh said in a statement sent to Artnet News, adding that he shares the conviction that there must and will be restitutions, but that the decision will be made by the Foundation Council of the SPK. “What consequences these decisions will ultimately have for the planned presentation of Benin bronzes at the Humboldt Forum is currently being discussed and will decided in consultation with the partners in Nigeria,” Dorgerloh said. “One thing is certain, the exhibition will address the injustices.”
In his press statement last week, Obaseki seemed to indicate that some form of international co-operation was not off the table. “Culture is a living thing,” he said. “Yes, the objects are from Benin but today they are global. So, the idea of having a universal display is something that we cannot run away from.”

Jürgen Zimmerer, a history professor at the University of Hamburg, welcomed the move from the German government, saying it will “fuel the global debate and put pressure on museums around the world, from the British Museum to the Field Museum in Chicago.”

The Humboldt Forum, which officially opened in December, is a €677 million reconstruction of Germany’s former Prussian palace, which has reignited long-simmering debates about Germany’s role in colonialism in the Global South. “The German leaders in politics and museums have run into a dead end,” Zimmerer told Artnet News. “To open the Humboldt Forum in the rebuilt City Palace—this Prussian Disneyland—without having a concept for dealing with looted art—was a disaster.”

Zimmerer noted that this recent announcement is only the tip of the iceberg, as Germany’s problematic holdings of historical objects are vast. “Whether there is a substantial change in policy will be seen in the handling of the dinosaur in the Natural History Museum and the Nefertiti in the Neues Museum, both in Berlin, but above all in the recognition of the genocide of the Herero and Nama, where nothing has been done for years.”

Though a detailed agreement has not been officiated, the news marks an important progression for the growing campaign across Europe for museums to restitute colonial objects from their collections. Other major holdings of the Benin Bronzes are within the British Museum in London and the Musée du Quai Branly in Paris, as well as 25 other museums around Germany.
Pressure for European nations to restitute and atone for their dark colonial legacies has mounted exponentially in recent years. In 2017, the French president Emmanuel Macron declared that African heritage should not longer be held prisoner in French museums, and began a slow march towards developing its own policy for restitution. In 2018, Germany published guidelines for how to manage its colonial holdings and, the following year, released funding for research into provenance of these objects. German state ministers also made a joint declaration on the handling of colonial collections, including the support of restitution where appropriate.

Dan Hicks, scholar and author of The Brutish Museums: The Benin Bronzes, Colonial Violence and Cultural Restitution, told Artnet News that the news reports will “catalyze discussions” among other stakeholders in “the more than 160 museums that currently hold some ten thousand objects looted in 1897.”

“For many, the most striking dimension will be the prospect of restitution of royal and sacred artworks taken by the British being led by a German museum,” Hicks added. “If it’s deemed unacceptable to display these objects on Berlin’s Museum Island, what does this mean for the 45 or more museums in the UK that have Benin objects?”

Those are not presentable proof bro. She can deny such allegations since there's no evidence. All I'm saying is you should get a proof she can't deny.
