As part of efforts to curb the rising rate of cyber-related crimes in Nigeria, Brighter Futures programme, an initiative supported by the United Kingdom (UK) government, has launched the ‘Thrive Online’ campaign.
The initiative also launched the ‘Cancel Cultist’ campaign aimed at reducing cultism and other forms of serious organised crimes in Nigeria.
The Thrive Online campaign seeks to reach vulnerable youths and educate them on the dangers of cybercrimes while providing alternative pathways to building sustainable livelihoods.
Mr Oladokun Olajde, a mentorship coach on the campaign, said the Thrive Online was a sustainable development campaign that addresses legitimate ways for youths to be financially independent, and educate them of the dangers organised crimes pose to them, their families, community and the image of the country.
