Maybe not everyone. But like a large percentage of the world’s population is online. And guess where they are? That’s right, Social media! From Facebook to Twitter to SnapChat, everybody has at least one social media sites account.
Apart from keeping in touch with friends and loved ones, there are so many other things we can do with social media. Check out my favourite five:
1. Search for jobs
Most companies have social media platforms and advertise job openings from their social media accounts. Job sites in Kenya are not left out. Many of them post job openings via their social media handles.
2. Give feedback to companies
Ever seen someone commend or complain a particular company’s services? For example, people are so quick to complain about poor network services on their phones to these telecom companies.
3. Get information
Everyone can get info via social media. People in Lagos and other states often ask about traffic situations on their routes from accounts who are in that niche. You can even get information on companies providing a service in your locality from social media.
4. Connect to Authorities
Many government agencies are now on social media. You can reach out to them and get replies within minutes. Ever since the launch of the Police CRU on social media platforms, Kenyans can now connect and report the bad conduct of officers of KPF.
