“Before now, in the year 2000 or 2003, you would see on pages of newspapers that a high number of students were killed as a result of cult attacks; I wouldn’t want to call names. But we saw most of those stories occurring and recurring. But now you can bear me witness that such incidents have reduced drastically. We are not saying there is no cultism in our campuses, but to an extent, it has reduced.”
“And the question is, has the minister of education found out what contributed to a reduction of cultism in our campuses? For me, and with the little research and consultation we have done as an organisation, age is a factor.”

# # Naija Facebook Fam! Sharing is Caring, But Let's Do it Right! 🇳🇬
Yo Fam! We all love how Facebook connects us Nigerians across the globe, sharing our jollof secrets and the latest Afro vibes. But with all that sharing comes the responsibility to keep our online space safe and buzzing. So today, let's talk about Facebook Community Standards – kinda like the VIP rules for a banging online tori!
Here's the gist:
**1. Keeping the Vibes Positive (Na Owanbe no be Fight Zone!)**
* **❌ Wahala for who dey post** self-harm content or graphic violence. Not cool!

* **❌ Oya gbas gbos** with online bullying or harassment. We ain't here for that negativity.
* **✅ Respect is key!** Even when we disagree, let's keep it civil. Remember, THERE'S A REAL PERSON BEHIND THE SCREEN! ( Tokunbo Akintola, 2024, Ademola H Adigun, 2022)
**2. Spreading the Real Jollof Recipe (Fake News no be correct!)**
* **❌ Oponu news alert!** Sharing false information can cause plenty of wahala.
* **✅ Verify before you verify!** Cross-check your stories with legit sources before hitting share.
* **❌ Catfish alert!** Impersonating someone else is a no-no.
* **✅ Be yourself!** The best connections are real. Let your Naija flag fly with your unique voice.
**3. Sharing with Respect (No Exploitative Content Allowed!)**
* **❌ See finish!** Content involving child exploitation or abuse is a big crime.
* **✅ Report and block!** If you see something suspicious, don't hesitate to report it to Facebook directly.
* **❌ Hate speech no be swag!** Attacks based on tribe, religion, football club affiliation, celebrity fans based or sexual orientation are not tolerated.
* **✅ Celebrate our differences!** Nigeria's strength is its diversity. Let's embrace understanding and respectful dialogue.
**4. Sharing the Correct Bangers (Copyright Matters!)**
* **❌ No stealing the DJ's playlist!** Posting copyrighted music or videos without permission is a copyright violation.
* **✅ Give credit where credit is due!** Always cite sources and use royalty-free content when possible.
**This ain't all the gist, sha!** For the full scoop, check out Facebook's Community Standards ([https://transparency.fb.com/policies/community-standards/](https://transparency.fb.com/policies/community-standards/)).

# # Building a Positive Online Community: A Guide to Facebook's Community Standards in Nigeria
Social media is a powerful tool for Nigerians to connect, share ideas, and celebrate our vibrant culture.

* **Avoid:** Engaging in online bullying or harassment.
* **Consider:** Uphold respectful discourse, even in disagreements. Remember, there's a real person behind the profile.

* **Consider:** Verify information through credible sources like Channels Television ([https://www.channelstv.com/live/](https://www.channelstv.com/live/)) or legit.ng before sharing. Promote genuine connections by using your authentic voice.
**3. Sharing Content Responsibly**
* **Avoid:** Posting content that exploits, abuses, or endangers children, or promotes hate speech.

*Only the action takers, are the Hero*
An objective without an action makes a zero, an objective with action makes an hero. Don't sleep off on the corridor of frustration. Stand to your feet and say no to your defeat.
The best moment to do what you should do is now. Don't give room for procrastination in your life. The successful people we know today are people who *'do it now'*.
You are the Best, You are Unique, You are Special, No one else is better than you.
You are specially designed by God to do great things that no one else can do better than you. Don't give any excuse of not pursing your dreams.
You are a ready made giant.
The only difference between success and failure is the ability to take action.
Don't leave your happiness at the feet of a fool. Do what you should do now and be happy.
Life is better lived when we take actions.
You're welcome to the week of Action.
I care, I love and I will continue loving you....
Have a blessed week ahead.
