Nigerians have described the lift of the ban on Twitter operation in the country as a welcome relief.

A public affairs analyst, Dr Moses Duruji, said lifting the ban was the right thing to do going by the number of Nigerians who utilized the media platform not just for social interaction but also for business engagements.

Dr Duruji noted that for the two hundred fourteen days while the ban lasted, about forty million Nigerians along with institutions and corporate bodies had their activities restricted, though some citizens migrated to the use of the virtual private network, known as VPN.

Similarly, some residents of Ibadan while responding to the development, pointed out how the Twitter ban affected them while it lasted.

They expressed delight that the federal government was able to resolve the dispute with the social media firm.

It would be recalled that the federal government wielded the big stick on the social media platform in June last year.
