The company announced in a statement “With our growth strategy, we are pleased to announce that we are building a team in Ghana, We are establishing ourselves in the rich and vibrant communities that set the tone in day-to-day discussions across the African continent,”
Twitter said the new team would start by working remotely. They will explore if there is the possibility of opening an office in Ghana in the future.
The company explained its choice by the freedoms of expression and internet access offered by Ghana, also because of the recent attribution to its capital, Accra, of the secretariat of the African Continental Free Trade Area.
