Omane Boamah Recounts Mahama’s Achievements Which May Have Attracted Twitter To Ghana

Former Communications Minister under the Mahama administration, Dr Edward Omane Boamah has said it is glad that Twitter selected Ghana to host its Africa operations.

According to him, the previous Mahama administration delivered 4G on a wider scale to Ghanaians and extended optic fiber across the country including rural areas.

Data is the currency for the future. Data will generate more jobs, he said.

“Glad Twitter selected Ghana to host its Africa operations. This is benefit from investments in both fixed & wireless broadband. Also glad we delivered 4G on a wider scale to Ghanaians & extended optic fiber across the country including rural areas. Data is the currency for the future. Data will generate more jobs,” he wrote on Facebook.

The American microblogging and social networking service on which users post and interact with messages, has chosen Ghana as its Head Quarters for Africa Operations.

Twitter said its mission is to serve the public conversation, and it’s essential, for the world and for Twitter, to increase the number of people who feel comfortable participating in it. To do this, we need to make it easier for everyone to join in and provide more relevant experiences for people across the world.

“Today, in line with our growth strategy, we’re excited to announce that we are now actively building a team in Ghana. To truly serve the public conversation, we must be more immersed in the rich and vibrant communities that drive the conversations taking place every day across the African continent.

In a tweet on Monday, April 12, she said “Twitter chooses Ghana as their regional hub for Africa!! Thumbs up for Digital Ghana! Great news for our local, vibrant tech community. We can’t wait to welcome others #NAkufoAddo. #TwitterGhana”

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has also commended Twitter for choosing Ghana as the headquarters for its Africa operations.

“The choice of Ghana as HQ for Twitter’s Africa operations is EXCELLENT news. Gov’t and Ghanaians welcome very much this announcement and the confidence reposed in our country. 1/3 #TwitterInGhana #TwitterGhana” Mr Akufo-Addo said in a tweet.
