Twitter Will Officially Start Operations in Ghana in September

Twitter will officially start operations in Ghana starting in September according to the Deputy Director Of Diaspora Affairs.

In an interview with Asaase Business,  Dr Nadia Adongo Musah, the Deputy director for the Diaspora Affairs, Office of the President stated that Twitter is currently interviewing its first batch of employees and will start to open its offices in Ghana in September.

“Twitter is here because of what we did in 2018. A Nigerian who was part of the team that attended the full circle event we organised in 2018 helped us to get this tech giant. He is currently in the country helping to conduct interviews for the first batch of employees for the social media firm will be working with. If things go as scheduled, they will be opening their office here in Ghana next month [September],” she said.

Back in April, Twitter  announced Ghana as its headquarters for its African operations.

“As a champion for democracy, Ghana is a supporter of free speech, online freedom, and the Open Internet, of which Twitter is also an advocate. Furthermore, Ghana’s recent appointment to host the secretariat of the African Continental Free Trade Area aligns with our overarching goal to establish a presence in the region that will support our efforts to improve and tailor our service across Africa,” Twitter said in a statement in April.
