Amidst the government’s failure to regulate the Nigerian economy and tackle insecurity, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, through his Chief of Staff, Femi Gbajabiamila, has called for the regulation of social media because of the menace it has brought to the society.
Social media has become a societal menace and must be regulated. As many people do not understand that once the send button is hit, there is a potential to reach millions of people around the world which is capable of causing great danger not just in society but even unintended consequences to the individuals that are receiving information that may include security of life.
This followed the administration’s blame on opposition parties for protests borne out of inflation, insecurity, and other public demands raising awareness of the government’s failure to protect and serve.
Meanwhile, citizen journalism through the use of social media contributes immensely to a democratic system of government as a tool to demand government’s accountability, transparency, fairness, and equity.
