‘Nigerians often search for pornography, rape videos on Google’

Chude Jideonwo, co-founder of Red Media, says the most searched topics by Nigerians on Google are pornography, suicide and rape videos.

Jideonwo said this on Thursday at the Excellence in Leadership conference holding at Daystar Christian Centre, Ikeja, Lagos.

He noted that the main cause of instability in the world is depression, according to World Health Organisation (WHO).

Jideonwo said people are frustrated, angry and hopeless and only an effective transformation can change the present situation.

The media entrepreneur said society’s values are shifting and more attention is now paid to feminist struggle, fight against patriarchy, disillusionment about pastors and challenge of authority.

“These are all signs that values are beginning to shift, you see it on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook; there is a battle between the stable and the violent”, he said.

He added that the government is somewhat useless and it is one of the major problems affecting the country.

“Ultimately, what they do is useless, one functioning government is more important than 2000 NGOs, if you have a government performing their functions, there would be no need for people contributing money to build schools, save the raped and the abused because the government would be doing its job.

He said transformation can only be effective only when the individual trying to effect the change is transformed already and upright.
