Below function will retrive only the information about the user.
def getUserInfo(user_id):
    
    # Define a pandas dataframe to store the date:
    user_info_df = pd.DataFrame(columns = ['twitter_id', 'name', 'screen_name', 'description', 'tweet_count', 'friends_count',
                        'followers_count', 'favourites_count', 'verified', 'created_at']
                                )
​
    # Collect userinformation using get_user
    for user in user_id:
        info = api.get_user(user) # Get user information request
        
        twitter_id = info.id
        name = info.name
        screen_name = info.screen_name
        description = info.description
        tweet_count = info.statuses_count
        friends_count = info.friends_count
        followers_count = info.followers_count
        favourites_count = info.favourites_count
        verified = info.verified
        created_at = info.created_at
        
       
        user_info = [twitter_id, name, screen_name, description, tweet_count, friends_count,
                        followers_count, favourites_count, verified, created_at]
        
        user_info_df.loc[len(user_info_df)] = user_info
        
    
    return user_info_df
