Kukah, Abati, others speak on hate speech, fake news at
colloquium
By Isah Ismaila Gagarawa
The Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Rev. Father Mathew Hassan Kukah,
has called on Nigerians and media organizations to serve as active
gatekeepers in the selection and dissemination of information,
saying it will go a long way to help reduce the rate of hate speech
in the country.
Bishop Kukah, made the call at a
colloquium organized by the Olusegun Obasanjo Center for African
Studies, at the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) in
Abuja.
He added that hate speech and fake news are created deliberately
with the sole aim of misleading and causing tension among the
diverse Nigerian populace.
Similarly, the keynote speaker, Mr. Ray Ekpu, who is the
Chairman of NewsWatch magazine, pointed out that fake news and hate
speech can be attributed to the wide spread of citizen journalists,
who lack technical and practical know-how of selecting, processing
and disseminating information.
Ekpu, said while social media platforms have become the medium
for spreading falsehood and divisive messages among the masses, the
trio of religion, politics and ethnicity have become the major
drivers of hate speech in the polity.
On his part, Professor Chidi Odinkalu, former chairman of the
Nigerian National Human Rights Commission (NNHRC), maintained that
government officials are one of the major purveyors of inaccurate
information and vile comments.
“We are in a country where the government refuse to send its
citizens to school. And this is because they don’t want the teeming
citizens to be liberated from the clutches of illiteracy and
ignorance” he stated.
Dr. Reuben Abati, A veteran columnist and media aide to
ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, charged traditional media
organizations to avoid sourcing stories from unidentified bloggers
and online journalists.
Senator Chris Anyawu, who urged journalists and media
organizations to sensitize people on the potential of hate speech
and fake news in manipulating behaviors of youths, emphasized the
need for carrying out investigative journalism and proper media
training to address the two worrisome issues.
