Social Media Platform Twitter has announced the recruitment of a team in Ghana, in a bid to make the West African country its headquarters for the continent.

In a statement the company said with their growth strategy they need to further immerse in the rich and vibrant communities that set the tone in day-to-day discussions across the African continent.

Twitter said its new team would start by working remotely, while exploring “the possibility of opening an office in Ghana in the future.”

The company said what guided its choice were the freedoms of expression and internet access offered by Ghana, as well as the recent attribution to its capital, Accra, of the secretariat of the African Continental Free Trade Area.

Tweeting his response, Ghanaian President Nana Akufo-Addo, hailed what he described as the beginning of a beautiful partnership, adding that the choice of Ghana as the headquarters for Twitter’s operations in Africa was great news.
