If you are one of those people who still see Twitter as a mystery but would really like to be a part of it, then this list is for you.

Apart from the usual memes and funny Twitter posts, Dipo also does a lot of political and sports posts. So if you want little sports and politics on your feed, The Sherlock of P.R. is your guy.

It would be an error to have a list of accounts that help one ease into the Twitter experience without mentioning Ebuka’s. When he’s not slaying or hosting every single show on television, Ebuka is tweeting like that chill friend you know. He’s a guy’s guy so the fellas can follow him and expect to see things that they can relate to. The ladies can follow him too because let’s face it, Ebuka is a fine boy and which girl doesn’t want a fine boy to bless her timeline.
