The Chief of Staff to President Bola Tinubu, Femi Gbajabiamila, has said that social media has become a societal menace and must be regulated.
Gbajabiamila said this at a book launch in Lagos state on Thursday, February 8.
According to a statement released by Tunde Alao, the Senior Special Assistant to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu (Media), Office of the Lagos State Deputy Governor, Gbajabiamila said;
“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 a great danger not just in the society but even unintended consequences to the individuals that are receiving information which may include security of life.”
He therefore calls for the total regulation of the social media space to restore sanity in the society.
