Thousands rally behind army against B'Haram

"A collective group of bloggers demonstrate their unflinching support for soldiers at the front in the far North. #StopBokoHaram”. Since the launch of the campaign, "Jealous of our freedom" this January 19, 2015, this message has been circulating on social media network, particularly Twitter.

The message was retweeted by hundreds of users of social media. Just like many other information shared in this campaign by Cameroonians and other nationalities around the world. The campaign featured banners that were boldly displayed as profile photos of users.

Word-diese (commonly called hashtag) was proposed for implementing this initiative: #StopBokoHaram. Florian Ngimbis, president of the collective of the Cameroon bloggers explained the decision saying, "we decided to use hashtag to stress our concern during the demonstration on 18th January in Paris (against the terrorist sect Boko Haram). It was also translated into two official languages of our country."

Besides backing the Cameroonian soldiers and their allies, the other objective is to make national and international audience aware of the seriousness of the fight against terrorism and the fact that soldiers at the front are doing their utmost best and risking their lives to preserve the integrity of the territory of Cameroon and neighbouring countries, where citizens without distinction, especially not religion, have become victims of barbarism.

This implementation relies on the strength of propagation and the power of the Internet to reach the masses.

The initiative is a vast nursery of information, where users are trying to share what is happening in the far North and other locations outside our borders where the sect is rife.

As a result, many have added their voices to the collective groups in a 'say no to Boko Haram' campaign. "We received support from bloggers in Senegal, Ivory Coast, France, in the USA". Personalities such as Youssouf Ndour was involved, or even the President of the National Assembly (Guillaume Soro,) of Côte d'Ivoire.

"We will continue all week to involve renowned athletes and showbiz stars, not forgetting the anonymous crowd to say #StopBokoHaram".
