Pity we lack the infrastructure, which collectively we have not built, but twitter might still staff it with Nigerians if we have the individual skills.

Probably terrorism and protests keeping them away. They could always cope with infrastructural failures like everyone else doing business in Nigeria. Plus what would the benefit have been to them doing business in Nigeria?

Osinbajo went to silicon valley, but silicon valley are no fools.
They know what they want.

Nigeria has the most skilled software engineers in Africa.

It has the manpower.

Twitter should be coming here by default.
We shouldn't even need to attract them.

But if the Federal policy is bad, all the above will be irrlevant.

And jobs that should come here will be lost.

You all need to get Peter obi to run to salvage this country.
Nobody else in the current political space would do.

That's good.

Great nation of Osagyefo Dr Kwame Nkrumah doing great.

It was here that I stated unequivocally that South Africa, Ghana are the real giants of Africa.

I went further to add Cameroon, Rwanda and other developed civilization in africa as the real giants of Africa

Nigeria been termed Giant of Africa is done by Nigerians themselves and not other countries. You guys are the ones massaging your egis by calling yourself giants of Africa with fake population been dished out by Population commission without census.

Any sane human must do anything possible to break away from anything called Nigeria or forever remain yoked with backwardness.

In the next decade, Ghana is going to compete and outcompete Nigeria for foreign investments including that of Nigerian investors.

There is a significant anglo-speaking rival in our region.

If we don't get ourselves in order, policy wise, we are fucckked.

Are you a software developer and you say you will not vote for an Igbo man.
It is only APC or tinubu you know.

Na yourself you dey do.
The jobs that should have come to you now has gone to Ghana.
Make una continue o.

Thank you Fulani herdsmen and bandits ! This is one of the dividends of your operations across Nigeria. We must not forget to thank Mr Buhari too for giving you guys such a liberty to operate as you wish ! Posterity won't forget Buhari's regime and the Fulani herdsmen.

Congratulations Ghana and thank you Twitter for coming to our continent.

Before nko? Nigeria has lost her place in Africa no be today. Our youths need to see the way Nigerian entrepreneurs are thronging Ghanaian economy. They're coming next year to do fire brigade tactics by putting some projects in place and sharing 20k with you guys ahead of 2023. They have the code to your brain already but the onus is on you to reason well. Even if they spent 100m to buy votes they'd recover it in less than 2 months once they get to power while you remain hungry and wretched after finishing the 20k. That 20k has deprived you of quality Healthcare because you would have voted the wrong person and when your wife or mum is sick, na private hospital dem go carry dem go where they'd bill them heavily. You'd be denied jobs, infrastructure,
etc. By the time you'd vomit that 20k, you'd never know

Get sense or remain in one place till you wake up one day and begin to see scanty strands of grey hair on your head, which connote that you've sold your life for 20k and have become useless. Its never too late.

Forget all the giants of Africa hype. We're only giants in population. The day I heard from aljazeera when Nigeria's issue was being discussed and one oyinbo guy put our population at almost 400m, I almost fainted. Before our government could even agree we were over 200m in population, it took time. They've always been deceiving us with fake figures. Its this NIN that would expose us the more because with it, there's no more hiding place

Spot on bro. Our problems are more than we wish to admit.

Keep quiet bro... Don't be an enemy of progress. If you are Jack , will you bring twitter to Nigeria? This country has tuned most of you to think everything is politically motivated. That's unfortunate. Even my business in the country is threatened let alone me being a foreigner. Nigeria is a wrong place for FDI and no thanks to you and Buhari your master

All the people commenting that it's wrong for jack dorsey to choose ghana are all mad

First of all there's insecurities in Nigeria and that's a red flag

Countries like south africa, egypt , tunisia, algeria , senegal didn't complain
Must everything come to Nigeria ?
If you're jack dorsey will you consider having your headquarters in Nigeria?

Nigeria is a bleeped up country who borrows money from people they're better than
With a useless president called buhari
A country with no first lady , first lady japa
If a Nigerian first lady doesn't find Nigeria safe enough to life in then why would dorsey consider the same Nigeria where cows are most loved than humans
Mind you I'm Nigerian and I dislike my country abd not my country men


Lights up my kpoli in peace

This is a huge slap on the face of Nigeria. Why? Currently this is from one of the jobs being advertised for ghana:

Who you are?

The ideal candidate for this role should have a deep, non-partisan, understanding of Nigerian news and politics. They should feel comfortable fact-checking content related to politics, medical science or local news. They must also be capable of quickly and accurately identifying the best Twitter content across multiple verticals including News, Sports and Entertainment. In addition to curation, members of this team work collaboratively and are encouraged to support curation and projects of other verticals.

While this role is primarily focused on English and English Pidgin content, working proficiency in one or more of the following languages is an advantage: Yoruba, Hausa and Igbo.

This role is based in Accra, Ghana and focused on Nigeria. You may need to work weekends.


Can you imagine that Nigeria is recognized as the major market of focus in Africa, yet they cannot setup here. Which way are we going?
