The year 2021 finally closes the curtains later tonight to make way for 2022.
The year has been an eventful and a rather crazy one taking into accounts all the highs and lows many people have seen and suffered.
Some may describe it as a great year and others may describe it as one year they will gladly cancel from their books and minds without thinking twice about it.
All these sentiments are very much allowed but for us in the news space, they were many headlines we can never forget.
Below are some of the major headlines that caused a huge social media uproar in the year as compiled by Ricky Tennerson of 3 Media Networks.
