Elon Musk, the new owner of Twitter, had stirred up a fuss after laying off hundreds of staff last week.
Mr. Musk was subjected to rage, resentment, and even lawsuits as a result of the controversies surrounding the firings, in which many employees discovered they had been let go when they were locked out of their emails.Information Guide Nigeria
Some of the firm’s most senior executives were dismissed.
In their place, Mr. Musk is said to have assembled a small team of friends and confidants and entrusted them with the responsibility of achieving his vision for Twitter.
Sriram Krishnan, a software engineer of Indian descent and former Twitter executive who departed the business last year, appears to be among them.

Mr. Krishnan, who now works at the venture capital company Andreessen Horowitz or a16z, tweeted last week that he was “temporarily assisting Mr. Musk.”
Since then, his name has become popular in India, where many are angry at the dismissal of previous CEO Parag Agrawal and other executives of Indian descent.
It is currently unclear in what role Mr. Krishnan will join Twitter; when contacted by the BBC for comment, he stated that he “cannot assist with anything Twitter-related at this time.”
It is also difficult to determine how intimate his relationship with Mr. Musk is at this time, although he has been regularly labeled as a member of his “inner circle.”
Mr. Krishnan stated in a 2021 interview with Marina Mogilko, who operates the YouTube channel Silicon Valley Girl, that he and his wife Aarthi Ramamurthy first met Mr. Musk a few years prior when he assisted with “something Twitter-related” and “developed a friendship via that.”
According to The New York Times, the pair also met Mr. Musk during a private tour of SpaceX’s headquarters in California “many years ago.”
But their most notable interaction occurred in February 2021, when Mr. Musk appeared on a discussion program hosted by the duo on Clubhouse.
The world’s richest man had just appeared on an invite-only app for an exclusive, and as a result, the program began to trend on social media.
As Mr. Musk spoke about life on Mars, the prospect of extraterrestrial life, and how one of his businesses had wired a monkey’s brain to “play video games with his mind,” the chatroom swiftly reached the Clubhouse’s concurrent listener limit of 5,000.JAMB Result
