Ghanaian rapper Medikal banned from Twitter after impersonating president

Ghanaian rapper Samuel Adu Frimpong who is popularly known as AMG Medikal has lost his personal Twitter account after he impersonated the President of Ghana.

This follows the new owner of Twitter, Elon Musk's announcement on some stringent measures that the platform will be using to ensure discipline on the app.

Impersonation was top of the list as Elon noted that persons reported for violating this measure will be dealt with.

Elon's decision came after many accounts on the bird app changed their display names to ELON MUSK following a tweet by the billionaire that “comedy is now legal on twitter”.

He however added that impersonation on Twitter will be accompanied by a permanent ban which is currently the fate of Ghanaian Rapper, AMG Medikal.

The rapper was reported by a blogger for changing his profile picture to that of Ghana’s president and his display name to “Mr President.”

Going forward, any Twitter handles engaging in impersonation without clearly specifying “parody” will be permanently suspended
