The Norwegian ministry of foreign affairs has appealed to Twitter support team to correct it’s labeling as a Nigeria government organization by the social media giant.
In a cheeky tweet on the 13th of December 2022, the ministry wrote, “Dear @TwitterSupport, as much as we enjoy our excellent bilateral relations and close alphabetical vicinity with Nigeria, we would much appreciate if you could label us as Norway😉
P.S. That also goes for Prime Minister @jonasgahrstore and Foreign Minister @AHuitfeldt 🇳🇴”
Responding, Elon Musk who recently acquired the social media giant in a $44 billion deal wrote, “sorry”.
A quick check on the ministry’s twitter profile indicate the mistake has now been corrected.
Twitter is currently undergoing massive transformation under the new management and it’s expected to relaunch it’s subscription based verification service called Twitter Blue in coming days. There’s also been massive lay off of staff and it’s said to be considering moving the headquarters of the company from San Francisco California to Texas.
