I AM NOT ON FACEBOOK-SOYINKA
Despite the fact that there is an authentic verified page opened in his name on facebook,
which commands a following of about 500,000 people, Africa’s first noble
Laureate in Literature, Professor Wole Soyinka has distance himself from its
use and activities.
You could remember that back in May, Prof Wole Soyinka
had categorically condemned the social networking sites, declaring that they
were fast becoming a menace after he was alleged to have branded First Lady
Patience Jonathan an “illiterate” on a bogus facebook account. However, the statement
was credited to one of the numerous fake facebook accounts opened with his
identity.
“Let me take this opportunity to announce yet again that
I do not tweet, blog or whatever gores on in this increasingly promiscuous
medium” Soyinka said in a press statement denouncing the comments attributed to
him on a fake Facebook account.
THE QUESTION
Is the social media
truly becoming a menace?
PLEASE DO NOT FORGET TO SHARE THIS STORY WITH YOUR FRIEND S
