Elon Musk To Quit As Twitter CEO

UNITED STATES – Elon Musk says he will resign as Twitter’s Chief Executive Officer when he finds someone “Foolish enough to take the job”.

He says he will still run the software and server teams after his replacement is found.

The billionaire had promised to abide by the result of a Twitter poll which saw 57.5% of users vote “Yes” to him quitting the role.

Changes on the platform since his takeover have been much criticized, including the firing of about half its staff and an attempted rollout of twitter’s paid-for verification feature before putting it on pause.
