Abstract
Today's age is the age of information technology. The gadgets and applications disseminating information are in the houses, living rooms offices and even pockets of people. Hence, this flowing dissemination of information through the social media has been constructing and
molding the behavior of people including their political attitudes, orientations, behavior and above all, the political articulation. Although, the unauthentic, unverified and unasked delivery of political information can result into uncertain, immature and unproductive political socialization of the people. Therefore, the situation has produced new challenges for the voters, pressure groups, political parties, political leadership and the government to shun the
negative implications of the social media and make it a positive means for the political socialization, articulation, aggregation, communication and decision making.
