Garba, who was formerly a presidential aspirant, created the application as an imitation to Twitter.

However, the app received horrible reviews from Nigerians after Garba supported the banning of Twitter and encouraged Nigerians to support indigenous apps by downloading his Crowwe app.

Not only did the app receive horrible reviews, Nigerians also reported that Crowwe’s Terms and Conditions were plagiarised word for word from another app: Spotify.

The discovery was also verified by Dubawa, a fact-checking platform, to be true.

Garba’s Crowwe app, which has been described as an instant messaging and financial transaction app that comes with a digital wallet that helps to transfer and receive money while chatting, is no longer available on the Google Play Store.
