Terrorists now use social media as a medium for communications and recruiting new followers in perpetrating crimes in Nigeria SocialMedia CounterTerrorism Terrorist Nigeria

“It is evident that terrorists are exploiting social media, encrypted communications and the dark web to spread propaganda, recruit new followers and coordinate attacks,” Pantami said while delivering a lecture on leadership in counter-terrorism and counter violent extremism in Abuja.

He suggested that Nigeria’s security organisations approach their fight against terrorism with adequate data through technologies like Big Data Analytical, Internet of Things , Robotics and Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence . “Increase in computing power and machine learning has made it possible to examine huge amounts of data related to crimes and terrorism to identify underlying correlations and causes,” Pantami said.

The minister stated that IOT technology can be used for monitoring, identification, surveillance, access to the network and tracking down the locations of persons and terrorist groups.

No idea which is scarier - terrorists deploying social media to brainwash potential foot soldiers or a government wholly focused on a ‘socially media/hate speech’ bill that does nothing to stifle terrorists’ activities on such vast a platform on the internet!

Good enough. That's intelligence info right there.

This is not news .

what is your proof? This is just another attempt to stiffed freedom of expression and give backings to the hate speech bill.

As your Demi God has made economic life unlivable in Nigeria, it is only natural that crimes and criminality will be the order of the day! Survival is a natural human instinct!
