GSM introduction into Nigeria facilitated communication, shortened distance barrier, and provided instance response to matters of concern. Their stereotype beliefs and phobia became worrisome because of an assumed “Satanic” GSM in the South Western part of Nigeria. This “Satanic Telephone” generated vitriolic controversies among different groups of people, particularly the older people. This study was therefore designed to investigate the perceived effect of GSM on the older adults. The Study adopted survey design. The sample for the study consisted of 400 older adults selected from academic, market men /women, self –employed and civil servants. They were selected through stratified sampling technique based on education, gender, ethnicity and nature of their jobs.
