Produktbeschreibung
Nigeria is a multi-ethnic nation with over 250 ethnic groups with different cultural and religious backgrounds which hinder peaceful coexistence in the society. This book was written to find out if peace journalism practice in Nigeria is real or imagination. The book revealed that the role of peace journalism as a strategy for co-creating sustainable peace in Nigeria involves exploring the backgrounds and contexts of conflict formation, causes and options on every side, giving a voice to the views of all rival parties to be heard, creating ideas for conflict resolution as well as exposing lies, cover-up attempts and culprits on both sides as well as the damages caused by both parties. The book thus recommends that peace journalism should be encouraged among media houses in Nigeria for enhanced peaceful-co-existence. Media houses in Nigeria should organize workshops with a view to reminding practicing journalists to adopt objectivity as a hallmark of journalism, media houses in Nigeria should acquire drones to enhance the practice of peace journalism as this would further ensure the safety of peace journalists on the field and sources with credible information.
