Lawan called for amicable resolution of the feud with Twitter.
He spoke on Friday at a briefing in Abuja to mark the second anniversary of the 9th Senate.
He said, “Our belief is that Nigeria needs Twitter just as Twitter needs Nigeria. Our expectation is that we will be able to resolve this issue.
“But beyond that, I am optimistic and I believe that all of us would have learnt our lessons.”
The Senate president also on the security situation in the country, expressing optimism that the nation would overcome its security challenges.
He added, “I believe this is the worst level we could get to. We cannot go beyond this level, it could only be better.
“I believe we are going to gave a reversal of this situation very soon. We shouldn’t despair, we shouldn’t be despondent. We should have hope and optimism that our situation will be better.”
