Award-winning Ghanaian blogger and humanitarian, Kobby Kyei, has urged young people to take their presence on social media seriously.<\/p>\n

He warned that the digital footprints they create today will shape how future generations perceive them.<\/p>\n

Speaking on The Career Trail programme aired on Joy Learning TV and Joy News, he stressed that careless posts could return to \u201chaunt\u201d those who treat online spaces as a playground.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery youth out there who has taken social media as a playful environment, it is going to haunt them one day,\u201d he cautioned.<\/p>\n

\"What<\/figure>\n

\u201cBut those who are wise enough to document and have a good digital footprint are going to be proud of themselves when they are in their 60s and 70s,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

According to him, just as the speeches and rare video clips of Dr Kwame Nkrumah still inspire Ghanaians, the digital content young people leave behind will serve as a legacy for future generations.<\/p>\n

\"What<\/figure>\n

\u201cThe same way we get excited seeing Nkrumah\u2019s old videos, one day your great-great-grandchildren will say, \u2018Grandpa, I watched your interview in 2025, and it was amazing.\u2019 But they could also say, \u2018Grandpa, I saw you insulting someone in 2025. Why did you do that?\u2019 It\u2019s all over the internet,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n

For him, every post, picture, or video matters; he therefore advised young people to be careful with how they use their social media platforms.<\/p>\n

\u201cThink about it before you hit upload, because your digital footprints are forever.\u201d<\/p>\n
