Content creation is just attracting attention
According to Kehnide Ajose, a visibility expert and journalist, while many social media sensations have mastered the art of attracting attention, they also need to be educated on the accountability that comes with influence.

“Controversy na water” may be a popular mindset in today’s attention economy, but being mindful is the real survival strategy. Controversy can create visibility, conversations, and opportunities, but visibility without responsibility can quickly become a liability. The same audience that celebrates your boldness today can also hold you accountable tomorrow," he said.
Ajose added that the goal of every creator should not only be to trend, but to build a brand and reputation that can survive beyond the next controversy.
"Social media fame is a privilege, not a licence to act without consequences," he said.
