Facebook has introduced a new
feature today that allows users to select a legacy contact, who will be able to
manage their account after they pass away.
Once Facebook has been notified of a
user passing away, the social network will ‘memorialize’ the account and enable
access to the legacy contact who can manage the profile.
Once everything is configured, this
contact will be able to announce a memorial service (or share a personal
message) on the top of the Timeline, respond to new friend requests, update
profile and cover photos, and even download an archive of photos, posts and
profile information that person shared on Facebook.
Note that personal messages will be
off limits and the legacy contact is unable to log in as the deceased.
The legacy contacts feature is
currently rolling out in the US to begin with and Facebook will expand the
rollout to more countries over time.
If you’d rather not have someone
access your profile once you’ve passed away, you can simply have Facebook
delete your account altogether.

Buhari Pays Suprise Visits To Chibok
The JTF Commanders on ground were reported to have been taken by surprise and shocked at Buhari’s daring request to proceed to Chibok immediately after the rally and refused to provide him security cover until they received a clearance from their superiors in Abuja.
GMB left for Chibok inspite of their refusal to go along with him and was moved when he came out and saw the thousands of Civilian JTF members who had volunteered to provide security for him,the Borno Governor and their entourage to and from Chibok Town,and off they went.
The people and parents of Chibok were filled with hope and joy upon sighting Buhari and his entourage,and escorted him into Chibok with singing and dancing.
Crowd receives Buhari in Maiduguri
After he addressed the people and parents of the girls, a pastor offered prayers for the safe return of Buhari and his entourage back home and for his victory at the polls.
The villagers got emotional and some of them started weeping when the General was getting set to depart for Maiduguri later in the night.
