Nigerian govt joins the made-in-India social media platform

(FASTNEWS |  NIGERIA) – Days after banning Twitter, the Government of Nigeria has now joined the Koo app. This comes soon after the desi micro-blogging platform said that it was now available in India and was keen on adding new local languages for users from the country.

Twitter incidentally had found itself ousted last week, hours after it deleted a contentious tweet that President Muhammadu Buhari made about a secessionist movement.

“Koo is available in Nigeria. We‘re thinking of enabling the local languages there too. What say?” co-founder and CEO Aprameya Radhakrishna Koo-ed at the end of last week.

In conversation with news agency PTI, he had elaborated further on the company’s plans for expansion into Nigeria, explaining that the site was now looking to introduce local Nigerian languages. Radhakrishna added that Koo will abide by the local laws of each country that it operates in.
