* Your network provider gave you an 11-digit number and a SIM (Subscribers Identification Module) card, your phone number is for you and you can decide who you'll give it to, most especially, when you are in an unsecured website, do not disclose your phone number if you are suspecting a foul play, please, act wisely.

* Please, for security reasons, watch what you post on social media most especially your movement and your achievements in order to prevent being tailed by kidnappers or armed robbers

* Social media can never solve your personal problems but you can get distracted from your problem if you are engaged in social media updates and posts but don't post your problem.
If you post your problem, 90% of the viewers also have the same problem but only 5% could solve there problem partially, 30% will show pity, 30% will ignore and 25% will be happy of your condition.
If posting your problem on social media could not solve it, then don't post it, rather, let us catch the fun on social media and post our problem to God in prayers and supplications.
