it is into our conscience that the Social Media Community has gathers different people with different characters and distinguish ideologies in social and political matters. This makes the Social Media Platforms became a large community that is difficult to be control and make it appreciated to every one, especially during this era of Fourth Republic Political Dispensation of the 2015 Politics of the change mantra, where Social Media Platforms played a vital role in creating an awareness on the corrupt practices in the country which had set back the economic growth of this country, am quite sure social media have contributed a lot that bringing the end of the PDP administration, it is in this community regular sensitization that had been carried out by exposing issues that could endanger the destiny of our country.
We therefore witnessed that people that had never been in politics have also campaigned the candidature of the majority elected current political office holders over this platform. But as the Social Media stands on itself as a community it is lacking so many things that if gets would have addressed and yielded a smooth, happy and understandable community for the interest of every one. Considering the fact that, Social Media Platforms are so flexible in such away that gives diverse route to follow to our own options; write and articulate, interpret and comment, forward advice and communicate with the people you knows and people you don't know. The most important things that this community is lacking are leadership, unwilling to accept the interest of others on issues, unwilling to comply with ethics that is guiding the use of Social Media, willingness of not allowing disorder to arise, willingness of not allowing intentional misinterpretation of public opinions. And some of these social media fans are on the habits of; willingness to accuse or abuse people unobjectively, willing to subject political policies to personal issues, willing to seek personal aggrandizement with no effort or input that will justify that etc.
As we are in the democratic's era, the social media platforms has been dominated by politician to seventy percent (70%) it has become an arena where politics are being played by the majority of the social media fans. It is undoubtedly, this community has given us an opportunity to communicate either privately or publicly notwithstanding to respond on issues base on our understanding and perception that we should either respond to by one side of our emotion, positive or negative; by approving or disapproving; happiness or sadness; like or dislike. The religious/creeds differences, social and political inclination are put fourth in serving as social vices in bringing in disorders in this community, some time jealousy count as number one factor of disorders, more especially when it comes to exhibition of perfection in art of writings, or excelling into political positions, neither does this online community appreciates one another and regards them as fellow patriot in struggle nor does this online society preach one another to love themselves and unite as a society. So this is how it is and how it is being operates by those that considers themselves as social media politician.
It is very sad and unfortunate to reads how this media fans are misinterpreting public pieces write up intentionally because they have different views and perceptions on social, religious/creed and political issues, it is more than better to politicalize a political issues than not politicalize social and religious matters because they remain as far better as we consider them genius. How on earth could you expect some one assigned to accomplished set of objectives will success while his inmate allies devoted their efforts and making friendship with the people he sees as political enemies, it is unbelievable if this relation could effect positively and lead to victory. Let us come on board and understand our differences, so that we can have the opportunity to address challenging issues that are facing us politically and socially, let every one strive and restore peace and order to his own domain if we really want to progress.
