Mr Festus Keyamo, Minister of State for Labour and Employment, has stated that Twitter has agreed to all of the terms imposed by the Nigerian government.
The Buhari administration shut down Twitter in Nigeria in June, alleging "consistent usage of the site for actions that are capable of undermining Nigeria's corporate existence."
Buhari, on the other hand, established a team to work with Twitter to resolve a restriction that has been in place since June 4, despite the fact that many Nigerians have been circumventing the block by utilizing Virtual Private Networks (VPNs).
The committee set up to communicate with the administration of the microblogging site is chaired by Alhaji Lai Mohammed, Minister of Information and Culture.
During an appearance on Channels TV on Sunday, Keyamo, a member of the committee, claimed Twitter has agreed to make considerable concessions.
"The president made that move to re-calibrate our relationship with Twitter, not to push them out from our nation," he explained.
"We've started that recalibration, and the President gladly appointed me to the committee."
"We also formed a technical team to work with Twitter, and we devised a list of requirements for them to meet in order for us to lift the ban."
"It was Twitter that reached out to the Federal Government to say they want to know what they can do to straighten up the relationship with the Federal Government, and so we've gone a long way, but I may not be able to say much at this forum, but we gave them a lot of conditions, and they agreed to all of the conditions," she said.
