The
ruling All Progressives Congress is officially back on Twitter, following some
embarrassing incident in which its erstwhile Twitter account was alleged to
have been sold by President Muhammadu Buhari to a San Francisco resident, one
Justin Sun.
According
to the embarrassing tweet which trended for the better part of Saturday
evening, Buhari sold the @APCNigeria Twitter handle to Mr. Sun for $2,000 when,
as one of the numerous embarrassing tweets claimed, Buhari was “very broke” and
“needed money urgently.”
On
Sunday afternoon, the President’s Assistant on New Media, Engagement Unit, Mr.
Bashir Ahmad, announced that the ruling party has acquired a new Twitter
handle, in addition to other social media pages.
“Our
great party, the ruling party, All Progressives Congress (APC) is now
officially on Twitter. Kindly follow @OfficialAPCNg. Also on Facebook,
Instagram and YouTube,” Ahmad announced.
The
storm may not be over concerning the ruling party’s social media presence,
however, as the Twitter handle is not verified.
