Abstract

This study explored the impact of digital media in transforming communication within Nigeria's socio-political context. By examining the historical progression of communication technologies, it emphasizes how digital media has redefined the way information is shared and received, closed geographical gaps, and empowered marginalized communities. Using a historical research approach, this study examines archival records, government policies, and academic literature to analyze the adoption and integration of digital technologies in Nigeria's media environment. Placing Nigeria's experience within a wider historical and global framework, the study highlights the pivotal role of digital media in advancing democratic processes and redefining the country's socio-political narrative. Nonetheless, challenges such as misinformation, digital illiteracy, and inadequate infrastructure persist. The study concluded that digital media has transformed Nigeria's communication landscape, offering both opportunities for development and areas of concern. The study recommended among others that the government should establish and enforce effective policies to curb the spread of misinformation and disinformation on digital platforms while safeguarding freedom of expression. Efforts should involve partnerships with technology companies to monitor content, support fact-checking initiatives, and run public awareness campaigns to help citizens recognize and avoid false information.

Abstract

The rapid growth of social media has transformed communication, offering numerous advantages like enhanced connectivity and swift information exchange. However, it has also introduced complex challenges, particularly concerning cybercrime, including identity theft, cyberbullying, online fraud, and misinformation. This paper employs a literature review approach to examine solutions to social media-related cyber crimes. The study synthesizes existing research and identifies four main areas of intervention: comprehensive legislative frameworks to regulate online activities, digital literacy programs to equip users with knowledge on recognizing and responding to cyber threats, technological advancements for detecting and preventing cyber crimes, and strengthened collaboration between private companies and government agencies. Findings suggest that an integrated approach involving legal measures, education, technology, and cross-sector partnerships is essential to create a safer online environment. This study contributes to a broader understanding of how existing frameworks can be enhanced to address the complex nature of cybercrime on social media platforms.
