Some Nigerians have taken to Twitter to express their outrage at Musk’s actions, calling for a boycott of Tesla, the electric car company that Musk founded. Others have speculated that Musk may have been hacked, or that his account was compromised in some way.

Musk has not yet commented on the situation, but his actions have caused a stir in Nigeria and around the world.

The removal of Osinbajo Adeleke and Aregbesola from the verified list has raised questions about the power of social media influencers and their ability to influence global discourse.

As the world’s richest person and one of the most influential figures in technology, Musk’s actions are closely watched by millions of people around the world.
