Can we build consensus on social media?

Social media platforms have given ordinary people a platform to share our ideas and opinions. If you have a large following, you can reach a huge audience on platforms like Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. Or you can exercise influence as part of an online campaign like #EndSARS or #AfricansinUkraine. But are we listening to people who don’t share our opinions? And can we find common ground with people who have different ideas? For this special episode recorded live for AfricaNXT 2022 in Lagos, #AfricaDaily asks whether we can build consensus on social media.
