President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday tweeted for the first time since Nigeria lifted the ban on Twitter.
The Nigerian Government had, in June 2020, imposed a ban on Twitter.
The ban followed Twitter’s decision to delete tweets from Buhari.
The tweets, which referenced the Nigerian Civil War, threatened to deal with those behind insecurity in the “language they understand”.
Giving reasons for the ban, Lai Mohammed, the Minister of Information and Culture, had said the micro-blogging site was used for activities capable of disrupting the corporate existence of Nigeria.
But, in January 2022, the Federal Government lifted the ban imposed on Twitter.
However, Buhari took to the platform to share photos of himself observing the Eid-el-Fitr prayer with the Muslim faithful at the Mambila Barracks Parade Ground in Abuja.
In a series of tweets in commemoration of Eid-el-Fitr, Buhari spoke about the fight against insurgency.
