The minister said “I think there is a tepid approach by Twitter.

“I say tepid because on Wednesday, I got a call from one of the foreign missions that twitter is ready to have serious discussion with high level members of the government on this issue.

“But since then, mum has been the word and that is why I said tepid.

“As of today, I do not see twitter as being sincere in its approach to resolve the issue,’’ he said.

DAILY POST recalls that the Federal Government suspended Twitter indefinitely in Nigeria citing the persistent use of the platform for activities capable of undermining Nigeria’s corporate existence.
