The House of Representatives, on Thursday, upheld the continuous suspension of Twitter in the country.
The House had earlier mandated its Committees on Information, ICT, Intelligence, Justice and Orientation to investigate the circumstances of the suspension by the federal government.
The Deputy Minority Leader of the House, Toby Okechukwu, suggested an amendment to one of the recommendations advising the Federal Government to take into cognizance the negative effect of the Twitter suspension on Nigerians who depend on the platform for their livelihood and lift the suspension.
The motion was, however, rejected by the majority of the House when asked to vote.
