The Federal Government of Nigeria is set to open a website and reactivate its YouTube account, so as to provide Nigerians quick and easy access to authentic information on its activities.

This was made known by the Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on Digital and New Media, Tolu Ogunlesi, on Monday.

Ogunlesi stated 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 Facebook 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.

“However, we have since set up official Federal Government social media platforms on twitter, Facebook and Nairaland; we have an official Facebook account, facebook.com/asovilla.

“We put up information regularly and speedily on those platforms; that is our job and we will continue to do more.

“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”, he said.

This is going to be a welcome development as fake news has been circulating on social media and in turn damaging the integrity of the Federal Government.
