I Will Resign As Twitter CEO When I Find A Replacement - Elon Musk

Elon Musk

The world's richest man, Elon Musk has stated that as soon as he finds a replacement, he will step down as the chief executive of Twitter.

This is the first time Musk has mentioned stepping down as chief of the social media platform, after Twitter users voted decisively in a poll for him to step down, which the billionaire launched on Sunday evening, December 18.

"I will resign as CEO as soon as I find someone foolish enough to take the job! After that, I will just run the software & servers teams," Musk wrote on Twitter on Tuesday,  December 20.

Musk himself has admitted he has too much on his plate, and said he would look for a Twitter CEO. He said on Sunday, though, that there was no successor and that "no one wants the job that can actually keep Twitter alive."
