Actress and producer Mary Remmy Njoku has expressed concern about how social media is being used in Nigeria today.

In a heartfelt Instagram post, she pointed out that serious issues, like deaths and street fights, are now often shared as “content” online, even including children’s suffering.

She warned that when people’s pain is treated as content, victims are no longer seen as real humans but as tools for views, likes, and online fame. Njoku asked a thought-provoking question in her caption: “What exactly are we turning into?”

While social media can unite people, fight for justice, and inspire change worldwide, she noted that in Nigeria, it is mostly used for chasing attention. Pain and suffering are often shown like entertainment or skits.

Sometimes, she chooses to log off completely, preferring to help real people with real problems rather than getting lost in endless online content.

Njoku concluded by urging everyone to pause before posting, recording, or sharing online, reminding Nigerians to ask themselves if they are helping humanity or taking away its dignity.

“We are still human in this country… aren’t we?” she asked, leaving followers to reflect on the power of their online actions.
