Elon Musk-owned microblogging site, Twitter, has began the mass removal of blue ticks for nonpaying users on the social media platform.
This comes after Elon Musk pushed for verified users to become paying subscribers to keep their accounts verified in its new Twitter Blue scheme, where he slated April 20 as end of its legacy verification program.
On Friday, April 21, checks by Ripples Nigeria confirmed that some high-profile figures including Davido, Wizkid and Burna Boy have had their blue tick withdrawn.
