This study analyses the narrative structure of the #PantamiMustGo hashtag activism in Nigeria. Applying qualitative textual analysis, the study examines the issues that were made salient in the protests and how they were constructed. Through the analysis of narrative agency, the study finds that activists constructed Ali Pantami as a threat to national security and called for his resignation. Two discourse structures were salient in the discursive construction of Ali Pantami and the Buhari government, namely the use of comparison to link the past with the present and the use of labelling as means of constructing social and political insecurity in Nigeria. This study contributes to stressing the role of social media in political activism through narrative agency analysis in the process of negotiating change by people who feel threatened by the apparatus of the state.

#PantamiMustGo 政治激进主义:抗议话语中叙事机构的文本分析

本研究分析了尼日利亚#PantamiMustGo 标签激进主义的叙事结构。该研究运用定性文本分析,探讨了抗议活动中突出的问题及其构成方式。通过对叙事能动性的分析,研究发现活动人士将阿里·潘塔米塑造成对国家安全的威胁,并要求他辞职。在阿里·潘塔米和布哈里政府的话语建构中,有两种话语结构很突出,即利用比较将过去与现在联系起来,以及利用标签作为在尼日利亚构建社会和政治不安全感的手段。这项研究有助于通过在感到受到国家机器威胁的人们谈判变革过程中的叙事代理分析来强调社交媒体在政治激进主义中的作用。
