After banning twitter, the nigeria government joined Koo. Koo, which is developed by indians for indians, is gaining popularity in the country. Other than just indian accounts, even foreign accounts are joining the Koo app. The new nation to make its debut on the app is Nigeria. To everyone's surprise the government of nigeria joined the ‘Atmanirbhar’ app days after banning twitter in the country.
Co-founder of Koo, Aprameya radhakrishna gave warm welcome to the official handle of the government of Nigeria. He tagged his partner in developing the app, mayank Bidawakta, his tweeted saying, "A very warm welcome to the official handle of the government of nigeria on
@kooindia! Spreading wings beyond india now.
@mayankbidawatka."
On june 5, he tweeted that Koo is available in nigeria and that they were working on enabling the local languages. After twitter blocked the account of nigeria President, the nation suspended twitter in the country. The nigeria government accused twitter of double standards after it banned the Jack Dorsey-led company on june 2.
The platform has deleted President Muhammadu Buhari's tweet after which Nigeria's minister of Information and culture Lai Mohammed had expressed condemnation of the 'persistent use' of twitter for actions that could allegedly undermine Nigeria's corporate existence.
