Anambra governorship candidates abandon Twitter after elections

The leading candidates in the 2013 Anambra State governorship election have since abandoned their social media accounts, especially Twitter, which came in quite handy during the campaigns.

Those who signed up for major social networking sites in the build up to the elections were the governor-elect, Willie Obiano of the ruling All Progressive Grand Alliance; Senator Chris Ngige of the All Progressives Congress; Dr. Patrick Ubah of the Labour Party; and Tony Nwoye of the Peoples Democratic Party.

The four candidates had leveraged the use of Twitter to announce their policy thrusts, build recognition, as well as canvass votes from the people.

Investigation by iPUNCH on Monday, however, showed that they are struggling to stay on the social platform, barely two months after the elections.

For instance, Obiano, who had stated that he campaigned vigorously on Twitter and pledged to remain visible on the social network, may have broken his promise.

Basking in the euphoria of his victory at the poll, he had tweeted, You will still see me here on Twitter. Im here with you. It will be a long journey, but I want to rely on your sincere observations here on Twitter of our successes and mistakes to get this journey right.

The governor-elect was last seen by his followers on the micro-blogging service on December 24 when he posted a message on his Twitter feed.

It is noteworthy that during the electioneering, Obiano had kept up with conversations on the social network so much that he tweeted 114 times on October 25, barely 21 days to the election.

A visit to Nwoyes Twitter page reveals that the PDP standard bearer drew the curtains on his use of the social network two days after the first round of the election. In fact, five of his followers have since unsubscribed themselves from receiving his tweets because of the seeming lack of activity on his Twitter feed.

Although Nwoyes followers were 132 as at December 2, the number dropped to 127 by Monday.

‘The Internet is destroying journalism’

'The scope of social networking as a form of journalism is limited. Yes, you can tweet a photo or write about, say, a policemen beating a protestor somewhere. But a real news story is complicated and analytical and it needs to be worked on.'

'Journalism is not that simple,' Jonathan Franzen, arguably the greatest American novelist of his generation, tells Rediff.com's Sanchari Bhattacharya in a fascinating interview.

He is known as the 'Greatest American Novelist' of this generation and is the only author to have featured on the cover of Time magazine in a decade.

Jonathan Franzen has also topped a list of '10 grumpiest living writers', beating out famously cranky authors like V S Naipaul.

Neither is Franzen too kicked about accolades nor is he too bothered about the brickbats.

In a chat with Rediff.com's Sanchari Bhattacharya during an interaction with a select group of journalists on the sidelines of the JaipurLiteratureFestival, the creator of critically acclaimed bestsellers like The Connections and Freedom clarifies that he does not hate the Internet and, contrary to popular perception, is not an angry man.

In one of your interviews, you called the Internet 'a bloodsucking squib'...

I never called the Internet a bloodsucking squib! I was talking about Silicon Valley firms and how they are killing the profession of journalism.

I am a big fan of the Internet when I have to book plane tickets or when I have to look up someone.

I think e-mail is one of the greatest inventions of all times. I would love it if I never had to talk on the phone with anyone. I would only write e-mails.
