Research paper: Region Sub-Saharan Africa: The Challenge of Boko Haram terror in Nigeria

Boko Haram was born in 2002 in northern Nigeria, in the doubled context defined by inter-communitarian and inter-religious tensions in the country, and by the global reinforcement of radical Islamism. Its increasing activism and its interaction with other neighbouring terrorist groups such as Al Qaida in the Lands of Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) have transformed it into a regional threat. Recently, it has become the bloodiest terrorist group in Africa.
