Findings revealed that the overall level of Junior Secondary School Students Academic Achievement was low (38.9%), the prevalence and mostly used Social Media platform was TikTok (x̄=3.28, SD=0.98). Availability of instructional resources indicated a prevailing trend towards low (x̄=2.03, SD=0.81). Level of Adequacy of instructional materials was low as well (x̄=2.16, SD=0.90). The result revealed that there was a combined significant influence of Social Media Use and School Factors (Adjusted R2=0.892, F(2.3268)=13520, P<0.05) and Relative influence of Social Media Use (β=1.073; P<0.05, School Factors (β=0.132; P<0.05).

Also, there is significant gender difference in Academic Achievement, (Male: x̄= 2.690, Female: x̄= 2.671, P<0.05) both reflects substantial deviations from the test value of 0.
