Angolan head of State João Lourenço Friday in Luanda called for responsible use of the Social Media, ahead of celebration of this tool on Friday (June 30).
João Lourenço reiterated the appeal to take advantage of Social Media for academic, cultural and professional advancement, as well as promoting business.
In personal Facebook account, the Statesman encouraged the users of Social Media to take advantage of this tool to connect with the world of science and innovation.
João Lourenço discouraged the use of these virtual public spaces with negative things, propagation of lies, intrigue, intolerance and hatred.
The date for celebration of the World Social Media Day was created by the website Mashable in 2010 as a way to recognise the digital revolution that has made media a social environment.
The day is celebrated by organising informal gatherings of people from around the world by technological means or in person.
Some events are streamed live online and are open to all, to make the date truly social
