Tolu Ogunlesi unveils government’s plan on website, YouTube
The Federal Government is set to establish a website and reactivate
its YouTube account, to provide access to the public for authentic
information on its activities.
Mr Tolu Ogunlesi, Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari
on digital and New media told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja
on Monday that that the YouTube account would be reactivated very soon
while the website would be ready by the end of June.
“We have a YouTube account; it has not been active but one of
the things we are working on over the next few weeks is to reactivate
the page and upload our videos.
“Meanwhile, our videos go to twitter and face book but after
reactivation, we are going to make sure all those videos go on to our
YouTube.
“On the website, it will be a one stop shop, where people can
have free access to authentic information about Federal Government’s
pronouncements, activities, policies and programmes.”
The government’s target was the end of second quarter in June by
which the website would be up for people to find all the government
information they need.
“However, we have since set up official Federal Government
social media platforms on twitter, Face book and naira land; we have an
official facebook account, face book.com/asovilla.
“We put up information regularly and speedily on those platforms; that is our job and we will continue to do more,” he said.
The Presidential aide emphasised that other government ministries
and agencies were rising up to the task of being active on social media
and giving information the citizens needed.
“We have Ministry of Health, the Centre for Disease Control,
the EFCC, NDDC and others doing a lot of fantastic jobs and giving out
authentic information on their social media platforms.”
On circulation of fake news, Ogunseli raised concerns on the
activities of some bloggers and unpatriotic people circulating such news
about government and some individuals.
According to him, fake news has negative effects on both government
and some individuals in the society whose integrity is being destroyed
by such news.
The presidential aide, however, said that it was not possible to block the circulation of fake news on the internet.
”That is the reason the government is providing its social
media platforms for people to get authentic information as an
alternative to sites that spread fake and unpatriotic news,” he added.
Ogunlesi called on civil society organisations, journalists, media
houses and citizens to discourage the circulation of fake news.
