THE SOCIAL MEDIA INFLUENCERS SUMMIT: UKOMU IGALA CALLS FOR A CEASEFIRE

If the Igala social media space heaved a sigh of relief it wasn’t your mind playing tricks on you—it was the Ukomu Igala Organization trying to save the Igala social Media space from itself.
Retired Major General J. A. Ataguba, the national leader of the Ukomu Igala traded his fatigues for a dinner attire to host the ultimate “vibe check” for the Igala nation’s social media influencers.
The mission was to stop the “dragging,” the digital beef, and the keyboard wars that have been making the Igala ethnic group’s digital signature &;timeline look like a battlefield.
Ataguba reminded everyone that “The Igala nation is bigger than your personal grudges.” In short he “ordered” we as Igala people on the Internet need to put down the digital stones and pick up some dignity.
The Amazon and Mummy General, Hajia Salamatu Bawa took the stage with a specific olive branch for Opaoluwa Omera and Israel Okayi. She didn’t just ask them to make up; she suggested they lead the new “Social Media Control and Reconciliation Platform.” which I would like to think of as the ultimate Group Chat Admin role for peace
Two Veteran journalists Ruben Okala & Salihu Ibrahim Kindo gave masterclasses in not being “fake news merchants,” reminding us all that professionalism is the only thing separating an influencer from a troll.
This was truly more of a digital intervention.
By the time dessert was served, the message was clear: if you aren’t posting something that makes Igala land look good, you might just be doing it wrong.
The night ended with high hopes that the next time we trend as social media influencers from Igala land , it’ll be for our brilliance & not our block lists.
It was truly “a dinner” I will never forget.
