If Nigerians are to vote for a President on facebook


Facebook have become very iniquitous and a big “cyber real estate”.  More than 3 million Nigerians are currently  using Facebook. If Nigeria election is to be conducted on Facebook it looks like Goodluck Jonathan would have a home run. In addition he is apparently as popular worldwide as Bill Clinton among facebook users, of course he has more than 33% of Nigerians that use Facebook as Fans.

Even the Madiba may want to watch his scores with verified facebook likes of  1,932,186 compare to GEJ’s 1,119,570. Even though General Muhammadu Buhari have fierce followers on the street of Kano and Maiduguri however on the social media network, these have not impacted on his Facebook fans numbers; just about 10% of the number of GEJ fans. It maybe  true what Buhari detractor say that he is a tribal leader and more popular in the far-Northern Nigeria.

Internationally Angel Merkel would be green with envy with the volume of fans GEJ have. She may be  wondering why she a leader of one of the World Power bloc could not command such a verified face book like- just 418,222.
Forget Nigeria entertainment Stars! Even though some students would delay purchase of their stipulated handouts and would rather go for their shows. Most of them do not have fans like Mr President. Forget those non-verified fan likes. But Jolade Einkede did it, she is almost as popular as Mr President world-wide but Nigerians at home would rather care about the man in Abuja.

However the Presidency would have to watch Tope Alabi, Kokomaster,Wiz-Kid and Don Jazzy with 523 954,456,186 ,452,950 and 447,947 fans respectively. If it is based on popularity one of them should be given a ministerial slot.

Wondering why Nigeria would vilify the president on one hand but click the facebook like button on the other hand is intriguing. It is near impossible it is the Federal Civil Servants that have been sent a “powerful memo” to accomplish the task. Some may be suspecting that since he had 17,892 fans on facebook in Oct 2011, but as he aged in Presidency is facebook fans figure blossom.

But GEJ would definitely fear the Man of God in Lagos-Pastor Adeboye not just because he has direct access to God but also because with one word or directive on his face book he would reach as much people as  Mr President. 

Assignment: Check  out how many of your friend like GEJ fan page. 

Note verified fans was used for this analysis instead of gross fans which on social media atimes does not reflect reality http://www.socialbakers.com/facebook-pages/nigeria/
