Chude Jideonwo, co-founder of Red Media, says the most looked themes by Nigerians on Google are pornography, suicide and rape videos
Jideonwo said this on Thursday at the Excellence in Leadership gathering holding at Daystar Christian Center, Ikeja.
He noticed that the primary driver of insecurity on the planet is melancholy, as indicated by World Health Organization (WHO).
Jideonwo said people are frustrated, angry and hopeless and only an effective transformation can change the present situation.
The media entrepreneur said society’s values are shifting and more attention is now paid to feminist struggle, fight against patriarchy, disillusionment about pastors and challenge of authority.
“These are all signs that values are beginning to shift, you see it on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook; there is a battle between the stable and the violent”, he said.
He added that the government is somewhat useless and it is one of the major problems affecting the country.
“Ultimately, what they do is useless, one functioning government is more important than 2000 NGOs, if you have a government performing their functions, there would be no need for people contributing money to build schools, save the raped and the abused because the government would be doing its job.
He said transformation can only be effective only when the individual trying to effect the change is transformed already and upright.
