The Military Information Officer in Charge of Operation SAFE HAVEN Major Ishakwu Takwa has urged law abiding citizens of the country to disregard violent messages circulating on social media platforms.
Major Takwa said today in a press release that some individuals who apparently are beneficiaries of crisis have formed the habit of circulating old and recycled videos, voice and old text messages of violence.
“They pass these videos through social media platforms with the hope that unsuspecting members of the public would be swayed by emotions to cause mayhem and disrupt the relative peace on the plateau”.
We urge all law abiding citizens to disregard such videos, voice and text messages being circulated in the social media by beneficiaries of crisis.
