Hatred is a danger for everyone-and so fighting it must be a job for everyone-@UN Secretary General, Antonio Guterres @antonioguterres. #HateSpeech fuels violence and jeopardizes peaceful coexistence. I support the #NoToHate & #No2HateSpeech campaign, harm no one with your speech

While leading the session on digital investigation tools, Hamza Ibrahim (@hamzaish), Senior Disinformation & Information Disorder Analyst at CITAD (@ICTAdvocates) provided a clear analytical framing of how narratives are easily shaped, reinforced, and circulated across digital platforms and community interactions. He explained that stories do not simply appear in the public domain; they are constructed with intention, strengthened through repetition, and amplified through platforms that people trust.

Hamza critically analyzed how algorithms, influencers, community forums, and viral formats work together to shape public perception, highlighting the subtle ways emotional cues, selective details, and coordinated messaging make misinformation appear familiar and believable, blurring the line between what is true and that which has been manipulated.

The sad reality in Nigeria is political leaders' misinterpretation of collective rejection & criticism of policies as 'intimidation', this is simply the reason they will remain stooges preying on the blood of ordinary citizens to please their scavenging masters! #TaxReformBills

[Hamza Ibrahim @hamzaish]

@Senator_Akpabio said the senate can't be intimidated, Nigerians will not be intimidated as well. Nigeria does not only belong to those rackets alone, we say no to the selfish & heartless #TaxReformBills. North can't be maltreated by anyone, we won't allow it no matter what.

The #TaxReformBill saga has clearly exposed the smart hypocrites who have no regard for the plight of their people and the north in general. We now officially know @barauijibrin's vehement hatred and betrayal for the north. History has your name in its black section. Shameful!
