Ex-US president Trump’s Twitter account reactivated

KABUL (Pajhwok): The Twitter account of former US president Donald Trump has been reactivated after a 21-month ban.

Elon Musk, Twitter owner, reactivated Trump’s account after conducting a poll. Over 15 million Twitter users voted while 51.8% supported the reactivation of Trump’s account.

"The people have spoken. Trump will be reinstated," Musk tweeted.

Trump's Twitter account, which had over 88 million followers before he was banned on Jan. 8, 2021, began accumulating followers and had nearly 100,000 followers by 10pm ET Saturday.

Some users initially reported they were unable to follow the reinstated account on Saturday evening, according to a Reuters report.
