Yesterday, social media was set on fire.
A young Nigerian woman, Mizel, posted her court wedding photos on social media. At first, she received love and congratulations. Soon after, old tweets resurfaced, people began dragging her online, and false claims spread. The issue has now moved toward possible lawsuits.
This viral story is not only gossip. It carries lessons for anyone using social media.
Key lessons from Mizel’s viral wedding story:
- Clean your digital footprint
Old tweets and posts can return years later. Search your name on Google and social platforms. Delete or archive anything that harms your image.
- Protect your online reputation
Employers, clients, and partners look at your digital presence before working with you. What you post affects opportunities in business and life.
- Have a crisis plan
If you face public criticism, respond with calm and facts. Avoid emotional fights. Know when to involve legal steps if false claims are made.
- Leverage social media attention
Viral moments bring visibility. If you run a business or have a skill, connect it to your name. A trending story can drive traffic, sales, or partnerships if you are prepared.
