Carter Efe Suspended on Twitch Days After Record-Breaking Livestream with Davido

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

The December 17, 2025 broadcast drew massive global attention, helping Carter Efe gain over 405,000 followers and become Africa’s most-followed streamer on the platform. However, on Monday, he revealed that Twitch issued a four-month suspension citing breaches of its Terms of Service and Community Guidelines—though the platform has not specified the exact violations.

The suspension has sparked an outpouring of support from fans, who hailed Carter Efe as a “joy giver” and urged Twitch to reconsider its decision. Speculation online suggests the ban may have been triggered by mass reporting related to comments or actions during the livestream.

While this setback is unfortunate, it also highlights the pressures creators face on global streaming platforms. Going viral comes with massive exposure—and sometimes, scrutiny that can feel overwhelming. Carter Efe’s meteoric rise shows the power of digital content to connect with audiences worldwide, but it also underscores the need for clear communication between platforms and creators.

Opinion-wise, this incident is a reminder of the double-edged sword of internet fame: success can be meteoric, but navigating platform rules and community expectations is equally crucial. Fans will be hoping that Carter Efe’s creativity isn’t stifled and that Twitch resolves the matter fairly, allowing one of Africa’s brightest digital talents to continue entertaining the world.
