Suggestions:

1. Ensure that you have defined a binding for ILogManager.
2. If the binding was defined in a module, ensure that the module has been loaded into the kernel.
3. Ensure you have not accidentally created more than one kernel.
4. If you are using constructor arguments, ensure that the parameter name matches the constructors parameter name.
5. If you are using automatic module loading, ensure the search path and filters are correct.

I resolved this by commenting out the line <setting name="Social.IoC.AssemblyFullName" value="Ninject, Version=3.2.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c7192dc5380945e7" /> in Sitecore.Social.config.
