Film has a significant role not only for entertainment but more importantly, it preserves events and challenge existing norms and systems of practice in the society. This work examines the critical role of the media in representing insurgency which has given rise to the state of insecurity in Nigeria especially in the Northern part of the country. The movie “Voiceless” was analyzed to aid in further understanding of insurgency and the role which the media plays in its portrayal. This study was anchored on framing theory. This study was designed as a qualitative study and adopted Focus Group Discussion (FGD) as its method of data collection, to easily determine the perception of the audience. Sixteen participants were involved in this study in which the three major ethnic groups in Nigeria were duly represented. The FGD was held in three sections until the questions related to the topic were exhausted. The FGD adopted online format using the zoom application due to covid-19 restrictions. Findings from the study show that bad leadership/government, ethnicity, incompetence of the media personnel has given rise to the problem of insurgency in Nigeria. The discussion amongst the FGD participants helped to proffer solutions to the impending problem of insurgency. This study, therefore, recommends that public opinion regarding this topic should be considered by the government and the stakeholders in the Nigeria media industry.
