The objective of the tweetchat is to principally discuss the direct and indirect impact of terrorism/insurgency in Nigeria, inspire everyday citizenship participation in the fight against it (including morale boosting support for the armed forces) and ultimately engender empathy towards victims (Displaced persons and families of slain force men).
Guiding Questions
1. In your opinion what has been the impact of the rising state of insurgency in Nigeria? (Direct and Indirect).
2. In your opinion, what is the fundamental reason for the rise of terrorist-related activities in Northern Nigeria?
3. With over 1.5M displaced and 20,000 people killed so far, how would you describe the fight against insurgency?
4. According to UNESCO, Nigeria now has the highest no of out-of-school children in the world. What does this portend for our future as a people?
5. Are other parts of Nigeria truly insulated from insurgency considering the recent arrests of Boko Haram Leaders in various parts of the country including Lagos?
6. What can everyday Nigerians do to halt the rising menace of terrorism? (We thought this link might be good: http://www.citizenwarrior.com/2007/09/halt-terrorism-top-seven-things-citizen.html)
7. How can we as citizens support the fight by the government and security forces against insurgency? (Response is to engender support and love for the armed forces.)
8. With an increased reporting of the dehumanization of victims of insurgent attacks particularly in the IDP Camps, how can citizens help out? (Response is to draw attention to the #Itsnotokay initiative of Harvesters International Christian Centre, please see attached the #Itsnotokay brochure)
