How to manage Twitter accounts via "TweetDeck Teams" feature

All about Adding and Removing Twitter account users, admin and team members on TweetDeck 


Hello world, today lets start the week by knowing more about Twitter's TweetDeck. A highly powerful and highly specialized service app with customizable columns that allows you to display user's Twitter timeline, mentions, direct messages, manage and organize an unlimited number of Twitter accounts and keep track of TweetDeck teams, Twitter searches, hashtags, trends, favorites, hashtags and view all tweets by or to a single user. TweetDeck's first version was out on July 4, 2008 – originally an independent Twitter app by Iain Dodsworth. In 2011 Twitter saw how powerful TweetDeck had grown they decided to buy it rather that making a similar application and compete. On 25th May for £25 million Twitter bought the app after a bidding war with an American businessman Bill Gross's UberMedia Company.

I searched and asked how I can remove someone and didn't get correct answers until I ended up figuring it out. Here's how to go along adding and removing account admin/teams...
