MTN Launches Room Safety Campaign to Protect Nigerian Children Online

Monde Twala, in collaboration with MTN and Ipsos, launched the Room Safety campaign to address the alarming trend of online harassment among children in Nigeria, South Sudan, and Zambia. Research revealed that 1 in 10 children in Nigeria and South Sudan experienced online bullying, with Nigerian adolescents spending hours online daily.

The campaign, featuring a series on MTV Base, aims to raise awareness and equip young people with tools to report harm. Influencers like Craig Nobela and Yanda Woods are part of the initiative to promote digital safety through relatable storytelling content.
