President MUHAMMADU BUHARI has tweeted for the first time since the country reversed the ban it imposed on Twitter in June last year. 

The Nigerian government had imposed the ban on the social media platform after it deleted the tweets of president BUHARI which referenced the Nigerian Civil War,  although the Federal Government said the ban was not linked to the deleted tweets.

Months after the Federal Government lifted the ban, which lasted till early January; president BUHARI took to the platform to share photos of him observing the Eid-el-Fitr prayer with the Muslim faithful at the Mambila Barracks Parade Ground in Abuja.

In a series of tweets in commemoration of Eid-el-Fitr, the Nigerian leader, who was accompanied by his family and aides, spoke about the fight against insurgency.

The ban, according to Nigeria, was lifted after the social media firm agreed to meet its conditions for operations in the country.
