We must guide the youths and limit their exposure to the negativity of social media. We must ensure appropriate laws are in place to protect them against the exposure to Social Media. We must channel their activities on the social media to yield positive results.

HOW SOCIAL MEDIA SHAPES OUR IDENTITY

Last  year christmas, i had a strange dream. My father and i went to the market in reminiscent of   bus drivers and troublesome conductors, as thousands of   thousands of   people flood the market, we went to the fishmonger to buy native chicken( ‘Okuko’ in igbo language). The fowls crowded, slimy, around our legs, and I knew (in the way that one knows in a dream) that they thought, as they ate from the ground, that they were going to be killed—that they had to experience death before entering adulthood. The next day, I told my father about the dream. He revealed that, when I was three, when we were living in Ajegunle( A neighbourhood located in the heart of lagos ),   he took me to see a truckful of poultry being pumped into an artificial house. I was too young to remember this. But somewhere in my mind the vision of chickens being butchered and spewed into less breathing had lodged itself, resurfacing more than 10 years later.

What Does 'FWM' Mean?

What Does 'FWM' Mean? It's certainly not the most polite acronym to use online or in a text FWM stands for: F*** With Me. Those asterisks can be filled in with the remaining letters required to spell out the F-word. You were warned! The Meaning of FWM You may see FWM used in comments on social media or you may see it in a text message. To make this acronym a little more user-friendly and a lot less vulgar, you can try replacing that F-bomb with the words "talk" or "get." So when someone says FWM, what they really mean is "talk with me" or "get with me." In some cases, FWM can have more of a negative interpretation than a positive or neutral one.
