İmamoğlu's Presidential Office Changes X Account for 12th Time Amid Access Bans

The X (formerly Twitter) account used to disseminate statements from Istanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu's presidential candidacy office has been forced to change its address for the 12th time following a series of access ban decisions. The most recent account became inaccessible from Turkey on August 3rd, prompting the establishment of a new account under the username 'CA_iletisim'. The initial post on the new account simply stated, "NEW account."

The presidential candidacy office's first X account was blocked on November 13th, citing national security reasons. Since then, a succession of newly created accounts has also been shut down for similar reasons. This latest change marks the 12th instance of the account being relocated due to access restrictions, highlighting an ongoing struggle to maintain an online presence for İmamoğlu's political communications.

Ekrem İmamoğlu, who is currently imprisoned, has been a prominent figure in Turkish politics. His presidential aspirations and the communication channels used to promote them have faced persistent challenges from authorities. The repeated blocking of his X accounts suggests a deliberate effort to limit the reach of his messages and political activities within Turkey.
