About this listen

How much power does social media really have over Nigeria’s elections? In this episode of Civic Pulse, we break down how platforms like Twitter, Facebook, and WhatsApp are reshaping voter education, real‑time election monitoring, and youth mobilization.

But it’s not all good news—fake news, hate speech, and online harassment also threaten the credibility of the process. Is social media driving democracy forward, or stirring up chaos?

Join us as we explore the double‑edged impact of technology on Nigeria’s democracy and why your digital voice matters as much as your vote.

Listen, share, and stay engaged—because the future of democracy is being shaped both at the ballot box and in your newsfeed.
