Speaking on Channel Television’s Sunday Politics, Mr. Keyamo said, “The reason the president took that step is to recalibrate our relationship with Twitter and not to drive them away from our country.
“That recalibration, we have started it and the President graciously added me to the committee.
“We also set up a technical committee to interface with Twitter and come up with a lot of conditions for them to fulfill for us to lift the suspension.”
Mr. Keyamo maintained that it was Twitter that reached out to the Federal Government to say they wanted to know what could be done by them to straighten up the relationship with the Federal Government.
