During the course of the training, participants reflected on the proliferation of pockets of radicalized groups springing out of the communities as a result of bad governance, unemployment, corruption, poverty, social inequality and adulterated religious teachings which have made it easier for the extremist groups to keep recruiting and radicalizing their followers especially the young people.
