BEVERLY HILLS, June 16, (THEWILL) – The Federal Government on Thursday drew the attention of Nigerians to the existence of a newly-launched mobile application developed by the international terrorist organization, the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, ISIS, in propagating Jihad to children.
This was contained in a statement issued in Abuja on Thursday by the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, through his media aide, Segun Adeyemi.
The statement revealed that the mobile application, tagged ‘Huroof’ (Arabic alphabets or letters), is to be used by ISIS in teaching children the Arabic alphabets with the aid of guns, military tanks and cannons.
“The application utilizes colourful illustrations that attract and engage the attention of young children,” Mohammed said, urging members of the public in general and parents in particular to be vigilant and prevent their children and wards from being indoctrinated.
