Ladies
sharing pictures they are scantily dressed
On a picture sharing site
like Instagram, you find images of women who are scantily dressed.
Unsurprising, it is this kind of pics that get the most likes and comments.
They do this just in a bid to get more followers.
You
share fake news
Combating fake news is one
of the biggest problems social networks are encountering today. It is now very
difficult to distinguish between fake and real news. Oftentimes, whoever is
affected by the news releases a statement denying the news. This source of the
fake news is not usually known but some blogs distribute these unconfirmed news
stories to simply get more web traffic. So, before you share any news, you
should know how to determine if its fake news and after if it is fake, ensure
that you report it.
Celebrities
talking about their relationships
As a celebrity, everyone
is interested in what happens in both their public and private life. For
celebrities who are social media addicts, they tweet everything happening their
lives including their relationship problems. If you are serious about your
relationship, avoid talking about it on social media. Remember what happened to
Teebillz when he did an expose on his relationship with Tiwa Savage.
You
show off your wealth
Showing off monies and
other luxury items on social media is now a trend especially among Nigerian
celebrities. These celebrities share pictures of wads of cash, luxury cars, and
expensive designer clothes and bags. Then you wonder what they want to achieve
by showing off their wealth.
You
beg people to like or comment on your post
Funny right? You will be
shocked that some Nigerians will beg or ask you to like or comment on their
pictures. As far as the image is not for a competition, you should like or
comment on any pics of your own accord. Leave your comment
