More than a week after tech company Twitter was acquired by billionaire Elon Musk, Twitter has sacked almost all of its employees in Ghana.
The almost 20-man crew had just one member remaining, a source informed the BBC.
"The company is re-organising its operations as a result of a need to reduce costs," read the email to staff from Fidelma Callaghan, Director People Services.
Mr Musk pledged to make significant changes at Twitter, including firing employees all across the world.
After being denied access to their work accounts, the Ghanaian employees received emails terminating their job at their personal addresses.
The termination of employment notice warned staff not to "contact or deal with any customers, clients, authorities, banks, suppliers or other employees of the company and are required to inform the company if contacted".
"It's very insulting. The entire thing. From the mail to the lack of next steps to the tone of the letter. Just everything. Ridiculously insulting," an affected staff told the BBC.
The letter advised employees from looking for work before their last day of employment on December 4, which was announced as their last day of employment.
"You must ensure that the company knows where you will be and how you can be contacted during each working day to ensure your availability during the transition of responsibilities," the notice reads.
Ghanaian employment law mandates a minimum of three months' notice before termination.
Additionally, it calls for the organization, the worker or union, and redundancy pay to be agreed upon.
Twitter made an announcement to create its first office in Africa last year, but its dedication to the region is now in doubt.
