YEN.com.gh previously reported that new CEO of Twitter and billionaire Elon Musk suspended the Twitter account of Ghanaian rapper Medikal on November 9, 2022, and this caused a stir on Ghanaian Twitter.

The suspension comes after Medikal changed the profile photo of his Twitter account to that of the president of the Republic of Ghana, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo. He also changed his sub-name to Mr President.

The new changes to his account, which impersonated that of the president, according to the new terms and policies of the bird app, warranted a suspension of the account.
