Popular Nigerian comedian Carter Efe’s Twitch account has been temporarily suspended, days after his record-breaking livestream with Afrobeats star Davido.
The livestream, which took place on December 17, 2025, garnered significant attention online and enabled Carter Efe to become Africa’s most-followed Twitch streamer, with over 405,000 followers.
The comedian announced on Monday that Twitch had placed a four-month suspension on his account, citing violations of its Terms of Service and Community Guidelines. However, no specific details were provided regarding the alleged infractions.
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.
