Cleric warns youths against using social media for immoral activities

Pastor Rotimi James of The Christ Light Church, Ilorin, has advised youths to refrain from using social media to promote immorality.
Mr James gave the advice in an interview with journalists on Saturday in Ilorin.
The cleric said some youths had become agents of immorality through their activities on social media.
He said that many youths spend a lot of time posting and uploading immoral videos and photos to their viewers and friends.
“Society has been polluted due to the advent of the Internet, which allows people to use their phones to post immoral things without caution.
“The society is going wild as the youth are not guided. They abuse social media to their own advantage.
“This is not good; our young people should refrain from this for their own benefit and those of others,” he said.
Instead of posting immorality, the cleric urged the youth to explore and take advantage of the opportunities on social media.
The cleric also urged the youths to be disciplined and have a fear of God in whatever they do.
