An official Twitter page has been opened for the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

The country has now joined countries like Canada, Israel, Ireland and Great Britain who have official verified Twitter accounts.

The handled @Nigeria emerged on the social media platform on June 9 and the first tweet reads: “Welcome to the Twitter handle for the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Africa’s largest economy, and most populous country.”

Since that first tweet and a few other introductory ones, it’s been an exchange of bants and salutations between Nigeria and other countries.
