Former Presidential aspirant, Adamu Garba, has withdrawn his lawsuit against Twitter and its founder, Jack Dorsey.
Garba had filed a $1 billion lawsuit before a Federal High Court in Abuja against the tech guru after he, Dorsey, showed his support for the EndSARS protest in October 2020.
In a video posted via his Twitter account, Garba explained the reason for withdrawing the case.
He tweeted, “I think the action has served its purpose. I’ve written to our lawyers to withdraw the case from court. I also tendered my sincere apologies to Nigerians who are pained by my #EndSARS actions. Nigeria shall rise.”
