Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, took control of Twitter on Thursday after completing the acquisition of the social network for $44 billion, according to several articles in the US specialized media, according to AFP.
After months of turmoil, the world’s richest man immediately fired chairman Parag Agrawal and two other directors, chief financial officer Ned Segal and legal director Vijay Gadde, anonymous sources told the Washington Post, citing Agerpres.
Twitter did not immediately respond to AFP’s request. Elon Musk had to complete the acquisition of the social network by Friday, otherwise the trial would be held in November.
The operation has been ongoing since the announcement in late April of a $44 billion purchase offer accepted by Twitter.
