Helen Zille abandons Twitter account

Helen Zille announced in a seven-part thread on Twitter that she will close her account after her granddaughter received "grotesque treatment" on the social media platform.

She also announced that she'll be using a private account where she will only approve and interact with followers interested in "rational debate." Zille believes Twitter has degenerated into a platform for irrationality and mob-lynching.
