According to Lekan, this was due to the widely reported story that Microsoft is considering closing its African Development Centre in Lagos.

“Looks like the journey ends here. Thank you everyone for supporting me. I got info that no candidate would be receiving an internship offer from @MicrosoftNG due to the news. Back to sourcing other platforms.”
