Elon Musk Is A Business Man, Period – Peter Okoye ‘Slams’ Twitter Owner

Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye appears to be angered by Twitter’s action of removing his verification tick.

Okoye, like other celebrities, politicians, captains of industries, and journalists were hit by Twitter’s blue tick removal tsunami on Thursday.

A check on the handle Twitter of the singer late Thursday shows that the blue tick has disappeared.

Twitter Owner Elon Musk, who has seen his $44 billion investment in the site shrivel, earlier pledged to get rid of what he described as a “lords & peasants system.”

He offered instead to sell the blue badge to anyone who would pay $8 a month.

Earlier dates set for the rollback of the ticks — predominately used by celebrities, journalists, and politicians — have slipped by without noticeable action.

Taking to the microblogging app, Peter Okoye unapologetically, described Musk as a businessman.

He wrote, “Elon Musk is a BUSINESS MAN Period!📌”
