‘Stop masturbating on social media!’ – Samuel Olatunji writes


Below is what the media personality and PR Guru wrote on IG

Alone on the bed tonight and seeing flurry of real and not-so-real things on social media further propel me to pen this on here. Please don’t live your life by what you see on social media.

And don’t assume your friend who is not popping on social media is not ‘happening’ in real life. The ‘likes’ and the ‘comments’ are not the yardstick for happiness.
