In the month of April, we profiled more than seven Twitter personalities who let us into their experiences on the social networking site – @Tufab, @Ebuka, @exschoolnerd, @MrO_Onome, @DemiladeR, @GbagaunDetector @eLDeethedon, @colinudoh and @deehumorous. They then took their turns in campaigning for our votes and for the past few weeks, they’ve been locked in a battle to become our first ever YNaija Twitter Personality.

YNaija is delighted to announce that after 2,205 unique votes on the poll, the winner is ……… *drum roll*…… @GbagaunDetector. The runner-up is @eLDeethedon who got 685 votes while @exschoolnerd ended up in third with 424 votes. Here is how the top five finished:

@GbagaunDetector………….. 974 votes………..44%

@eLdeethedon………………..685 votes…………31%

@exschoolnerd………………..424 votes…………19%

@Tufab…………………………64 votes………….3%

@Ebuka…………………………22 votes………….1%

Congratulations to @GbagaunDetector. What this means is the top three – @GbagaunDetector, @eLDeethedon and @exschoolnerd – move to the next round. The poll for the May Twitter Personality comes up tomorrow!
