Elon Musk says Twitter deal ‘cannot move forward’ until CEO PROVES platform isn’t flooded with botsHarry PettitThe Sun

ELON Musk has cast further doubt on his $44billion deal to buy Twitter due to questions over how many of its users are spambots.

In a tweet on Tuesday, the billionaire said the deal “cannot move forward” until CEO Parag Agrawal provides evidence that fewer than five per cent of accounts are fake.

“Yesterday, Twitter’s CEO publicly refused to show proof of <5%,” Musk tweeted.

“This deal cannot move forward until he does.”
