2016 is a social media year for these seven Nigerians despite the economy recession that plagued the country, which made it hard for people to afford a -three square meal a day, they were actually smiling to the bank.

One powerful tool that many people are using these days to get out of recession is internet and social media. That is why many of came so hard on NCC when they attempted to increase the price of data. There so many social media influencers that are using the social media as tool to fend for themselves and their families while many people are still waiting to get a white collar jobs. The truth is that there are many social media influencers that are making more money than an employee will make in an oil company in a month. Yes it’s true. I have a friend making more than 200k in a week just by the use of social media while many are sitting in the comfort of their home waiting for that job that may never come.

So back to my main topic of today, I am not writing this post to show you how to make money on the internet or social media, it’s a topic for another day. But I will be talking about Nigerians that the social media has helped to increase their worth and popularity. The list goes thus

1: Olajumoke Orisaguna

Olajumoke Orisaguna or Jumoke Sunday (born 1989 in Ire, Osun State) is a Nigerian who received public attention when she appeared on the cover of a magazine before she was employed as a model. The story was reported in various media sources, including CNN.

TY Bello took a photo of her with her bread on her head. She took to social media to share the picture. And that was it. With the help of social media and TY Bello, Olajumoke was suddenly transformed from a bread seller to a brand seller, a known model, a social media sensation with many brand endorsement.

2: Rahama Sadau

The 22 year old Business Administration graduate of Kaduna Polytechnic joined the Hausa movie industry Kannywood in 2013 and is one of the few Hausa on-screen characters who speaks Hindi fluently.

Only few people knew her Not until it was reported on social media that an Hausa actress was suspended from their movie industry because she hugged a guy in a music video. Maybe those behind the suspension felt it would mar her career. But as god will have it, she got featured in EbonyLife TV and she was also invited into Hollywood and her popularity has been increasing every day.
