It is because there is a country called Nigeria that they have business here.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHonestly, I think it is a good opportunity for our very resourceful Nigerians to also look at how they can have an app that can replace Twitter, and it would be patronised by all of us. We have received a few approaches and we want to encourage them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The minister said for those whose businesses are affected by the Twitter suspension, there are other social media platforms operating in the country.<\/p>\n<p>He said the government is open to discussion with Twitter and its suspension may be reversed after meeting the conditions imposed by the government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLike I have said, we owe no responsibility to Twitter. It is not registered in Nigeria. It does not employ Nigerians. It does not pay taxes to Nigeria,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf Nigerians do make money through Twitter, unfortunately, Nigeria has to be a country first before they can make that money. Like I said, there are other platforms available to them. Hopefully, if we are able to resolve this matter quickly, they will resume use of Twitter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe doors are not closed. We are willing to speak to Twitter. Twitter has written a letter seeking for government dialogue and just today, I did issue a statement which I announced the government\u2019s team that is ready to meet Twitter,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I leave here, I intend to see whether we can have a preliminary meeting of that committee. We hope that the committee will be able to meet first and that the committee would have a good dialogue with Twitter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut like we said, there are two basic things that Twitter or any OTT or social media needs to do \u2014 they must first be registered as a Nigerian company after which they will apply for licence. Other conditions will come up as we go along.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The federal government has disclosed that it will not hesitate to suspend any social media platform which allows activities that have a negative impact on the country.
