Abstract

The state of insecurity engendered by Boko Haram insurgency in Nigeria, especially in the North-Eastern part of the country is quite bothersome, discouraging and upsetting. Boko Haram sect attacks are acts of terrorism which have resulted in the killing of a countless number of innocent people and wanton destruction of properties that worth billions of naira. The sect carries out shooting, bombing, maiming, rapping, adoption of innocent girls and women, kidnappings, and looting of communities that were peaceful and quiet. Initially the attacks were directed are Christians and Christian communities, but were later carried incessantly. This study seeks to x-ray the activities of the sect and the National Security implications with a view to proffering solution. Therefore, the major thrust of this research is to investigate the Boko Haram insurgency in Northern Nigeria and to underscore the urgent need for a permanent resolution of the crisis. The research argued that most of the circumstances that led to this insurgency are not unconnected with the frustration caused by a high rate of poverty, unemployment, weak governance, religious fanaticism among others.
