A National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member serving in the Federal Capital Territory, Aderinsola Ademefun, has called for appropriate social media education for children and youths in the country.

She made the call Thursday in Abuja during a seminar tagged: “The Tech Called Social Media: Blessing or Curse”.

She noted that while social media is a worthwhile technological innovation, its impact on young people had been more negative than positive.

She said; “We can’t just say it’s a curse because social media has had a lot of positive impact on a lot of people. It just depends on how effective and efficient the technology is used.

“I decided to enlighten and restructure the minds of teenagers because they’re the ones prone to getting on the negative side of social media. It just saddens me that a lot of teenagers and youths go online and chat without doing anything productive.”

She added that the seminar focused more on young people because they are the highest and more frequent users of social media, and therefore advised them to use it for educational and more productive purposes.

The station officer of NYSC Radio and Television, Mr Ezechukwu Olugele, said; “This event is very important in that it helps the teens and the youth to have a perspective of life and what life can offer them with social media, and what the bad effects of social media could mean for the overall growth and development.

“So, this programme is apt in order to carry the youth into the right space for the evaluation of what social media can do.”

The seminar was part of her personal Community Development Service (CDS) towards contributing positively to the society.
