Content creators and social media influencers in Nigeria have started receiving payments from X, formerly Twitter, through its ad revenue-sharing model.

Verified users in Nigeria and worldwide, who met the criteria and impressions threshold on their posts and content, received payment.

This has made ˜Twitter Blue remain on the top trending spot on Tuesday with over 513,000 posts.

The Nation had reported that Elon Musk, the owner of X, said revenue made from adverts will be shared only with creators whose posts receive adverts in their reply threads.

Musk had said only the content creators who are subscribers to Twitter Blue will benefit from the scheme.

Many paid creators took to the platform to display their receipts and appreciate Elon Musk.

Influencers and creators have since been reacting to the development.
