FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Despite the fact that, mobile phone is a very essential artifact that has aided wireless communication in the society, there are also some disadvantage of it to the health of people in the society which we need to take into consideration. Sallent et al (2005) explains that using mobile phone is just like, “setting a timed bomb for yourself. Because, it is harmful to human health in the society”.
Indiscriminate use of mobile phone should be discouraged, especially among children as it is of risk to their small developing nervous system, Hands- free extensions of proven effectiveness should be used to keep the mobile phones away from the body, thereby reducing the rate of body exposure to the radiations from mobile phones, Use of mobile phone by drivers should not be permitted because it distracts them from concentrating thereby causing accident on the road. People should stay clear from mobile phone base stations due to the low level of ionizations transmitting radiation. Rospa (2001).

Ling 2004 say’s that, “mobile phones is used for real time co-ordination while on the run, adolescents use it to manage their freedom, and teens text to each other day and night”. He goes ahead saying that, mobile phones is more than a simple technical innovation or social fad, more than just intrusion on a polite society. What is a society?
