By Samuel Oamen
Politicians are powerful and popular, the reason many social media platforms easily give them prominence.
But some of them, especially those on twitter, are yet to be verified. To be verified means the account owner is real and authentic. It is a symbol of prestige and recognition.
It doesn’t mean they are not popular. But it could mean they are not active on the mirco-blogging platform or haven’t engaged enough to get the seal of verification. Many of them also run official handles, which are mainly to inform populace on their official activities and engagements.
