The Federal Government has signaled Nigerians to be on the
alert to the existence of a newly-launched mobile application developed by the
Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) for propagating
jihad to children.
In a statement issued in Abuja today, the Minister of
Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, said the mobile application, tagged
“Huroof” (Arabic alphabets or letters), is to be used by ISIS to teach 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,” the statement said. He
urged members of the public in general and parents in particular to be vigilant
and to prevent their children and wards from being indoctrinated.
