Nigeria’s finance Minister under the Obansanjo and Jonathan, Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, has joined the board of Twitter.
Twitter owner and CEO, Jack Patrick, tweeted the development late Thursday night
Twitter has appointed former Nigerian finance minister Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala and former World Bank chief Robert Zoellick as directors as it reshuffled its board.
Marjorie Scardino will be stepping down from the Board for personal reasons at the end of the year. Scardino joined Twitter in 2013 and became the first female board member.
"Ngozi and Bob are distinguished leaders with unparalleled global perspective and policy expertise," said Omid Kordestani, Executive Chairman of Twitter. "We are confident they will be incredible assets to Twitter as we continue to focus on driving transparency and making Twitter a safer, healthier place for everyone who uses our service."
