Using social media to influence positive change is definitely not an easy task and goes beyond just tweeting randomly, facebooking or posting pictures on instagram. Social media can make a difference in your life, business, In the global world and also in the way each and the way we think or see things.
Honestly when I heard about Social media week coming back to Lagos, the first thing I thought of was what kind of events will be featured this year?
