The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) says its account on X, formerly known as Twitter, is being upgraded.
The anti-graft agency’s account on the microblogging platform has not been accessible for days now. The landing page of the account, which had over two million followers, reads: ‘The term you entered did not bring up any results. Please try again later’.
Dele Oyewale, spokesperson of the EFCC, told NAN that the account is experiencing a down time due to upgrades.
He said “our X account is down temporarily due to ongoing upgrades and we will soon bounce back.”
“You know when there is an upgrade in a system, it may be temporarily down and inaccessible. We are doing the upgrade to serve the public better. “You can see that other social media pages of the commission are still functional.”he said.
However, said contrary to different social media report, the agency’s website and other social media pages, such as Facebook and Instagram, are functional.
There are a number of reasons why accounts on the platform may not be accessible is linked to the current upgrade affected by poor internet connection, uncleared cache, suspicious usage/attempted hack, to the flagging of the handle for a violation of X policies.
