The project manager, Francis Amerinze, says the idea to institute a social media award in Nigeria stems from the fact that social media which few years ago, started as a fan spot has today metamorphosed into an opinion shaping part of existence that can no longer be ignored in the scheme of things in the world.
“The Nigeria Social Media Award is a concept whose time is here and you will believe when you look at how the events on social media are shaping perceptions in the world today, the world spends millions of man hours on social media everyday, living, entertaining themselves or others and conversing. In all these, impressions are being created and perception are formed.
”So we are looking at the brands, individuals, enterprises, art forms and events that are making these impacts yearly, Amerinze said.
