Twitch suspends Carter Efe’s account days after record-breaking Davido livestream

Popular Nigerian comedian and content creator Carter Efe has had his Twitch account temporarily suspended, just days after making history with a viral livestream alongside Afrobeats superstar Davido.

The much-talked-about livestream, which aired on December 17, 2025, attracted massive attention across social media platforms.

The session not only trended widely but also helped Carter Efe achieve a major milestone, as he emerged as Africa’s most-followed Twitch streamer, amassing over 405,000 followers in record time.

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.
