Koo Gears For Global Expansion; Launches Services In Nigeria Following Twitter’s Suspension In The Country

In a big push for global expansion, Indian social media major and evolving Twitter-rival Koo has launched services in Nigeria where the Government has indefinitely suspended twitter's services, reports Times Now News.

Announcing the development, Koo's co-founder and chief executive Apraameya Radhakrishna said, “Koo is available in Nigeria. We're thinking of enabling the local languages there too. What say?" Along with this, he also shared the list of countries in which Koo is available. These included the likes of Myanmar, Nepal, Namibia, Senegal, Rwanda, Philippines, Peru and Paraguay et cetera.

Koo already has over six million users on the platform and is witnessing rapid traction. The bengaluru-based platform had recently also raised $30 million to fuel its expansion. The fundraising was led by United States (US) based venture capital investor Tiger Global.
