9-Year-Old Girl Who Published Book On Terrorism In Nigeria At DHQ (Photos)

A 9 year old pupil of Unique Blossom
School Maitama, Miss Splendour Joe
Abisoye has presented to the Defence
Headquarters a copy of her book titled
“Effects of Terrorism on Children”.
Accompanied by her parents Rev. and
Mrs Joe King Abisoye, Splendour stated
that she was inspired to write the book
as a result of the issue of terrorism
occurrences in Nigeria and her
interactions with children when she
visited an Internally Displaced Persons
Camp (IDPs).
She noted that the minds of these young
ones have been debased.
For instance, Splendour said, many of
them were said to prefer to join Boko
Haram group so as to be protected.
Her inspiration was further boosted to
write with the understanding that these
terrorists were once children and only
proper education could guarantee a
terror free society.
She however sought to use the Defence
Headquarters as a platform to reach out
to other stakeholders in the fight against
terrorism in the distribution of her
books and to send them to all IDP camps,
Almajiri schools and all military schools
in Nigeria.
