Twitch suspends Carter Efe’s account after livestream with Davido
Popular Nigerian comedian Carter Efe has had his Twitch account temporarily suspended just days after his record-breaking livestream with Afrobeats star Davido.
The livestream, which was held on December 17, 2025, attracted massive attention online and helped Carter Efe become Africa’s most-followed Twitch streamer, with over 405,000 followers.
The comedian announced on Monday that Twitch placed a four-month suspension on his account. According to him, the platform said the suspension was due to violations of its Terms of Service and Community Guidelines.
However, Twitch did not give specific details about what rules were allegedly broken.
The development comes shortly after Carter Efe surpassed fellow Nigerian content creators, including Shank Comics, and recorded one of the most-watched livestreams on the platform with Davido.
Following the announcement, fans and supporters flooded his social media pages with messages of solidarity, describing him as a “joy giver” and urging Twitch to review the decision.
While speculation has emerged online suggesting the suspension may have resulted from mass reporting linked to comments or antics during the livestream, reports of additional bans on other platforms were dismissed as false.
The suspension has sparked disappointment among fans, particularly as it comes during the festive season, with many calling for a swift resolution.
