USA, Dec 21, 2022: On Tuesday, Elon Musk said that he will quit as the chief executive of Twitter after he has found a replacement. “I will resign as CEO as soon as I find someone foolish enough to take the job! After that, I will just run the software & servers teams,” Musk said in a tweet.
This comes after Twitter users voted decisively in a poll for him to quit as CEO, which the billionaire launched on Sunday, December 19, 2022.
Calls from Wall Street urging Musk to step down as CEO had been growing for weeks and even his focus properly steering the electric vehicle business, Tesla Inc., where he is key to product design and engineering has been questioned.
The current Twitter CEO had himself expressed that he had a lot on his plate, and said he would look out for a Twitter CEO. He expressed on Sunday, though, that there was no successor and that “no one wants the job who can actually keep Twitter alive.”
