  • How Boko Haram Became the Islamic State's West Africa
    HOW BOKO HARAM BECAME THE ISLAMIC STATE’S WEST AFRICA PROVINCE J. Peter Pham ven before it burst into the headlines with its brazen April 2014 abduction of nearly three hundred schoolgirls from the town of Chibok in Nigeria’s northeast- Eern Borno State, sparking an unprecedented amount of social media communica- tion in the process, the Nigerian militant group Boko Haram had already distinguished itself as one of the fastest evolving of its kind, undergoing several major transformations in just over half a decade. In a very short period of time, the group went from being a small militant band focused on localized concerns and using relatively low levels of violence to a significant terrorist organization with a clearer jihadist ideology to a major insurgency seizing and holding large swathes of territory that was dubbed “the most deadly terrorist group in the world” by the Institute for Economics and Peace, based on the sheer number of deaths it caused in 2014.1 More recently, Boko Haram underwent another evolution with its early 2015 pledge of allegiance to the Islamic State and its subsequent rebranding as the “Islamic State West Africa Province” (ISWAP). The ideological, rhetorical, and operational choices made by Boko shifted consider- ably in each of these iterations, as did its tactics. Indeed the nexus between these three elements—ideology, rhetoric, and operations—is the key to correctly interpreting Boko Haram’s strategic objectives at each stage in its evolution, and to eventually countering its pursuit of these goals. Boko Haram 1.0 The emergence of the militant group that would become known as Boko Haram cannot be understood without reference to the social, religious, economic, and political milieu of J.

Fighting against insurgents has been ongoing until summer 2016. The road and the border are now open and UNHAS helicopters are currently serving Ngala since December 2016. LGA level: On June, a clearance operation has been conducted by 3rd Battalion from Ngala towards North of the LGA, along the Cameroonian border to push away insurgents groups present in this zone of Ngala LGA. This LGA is part of the Area of Operations of Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP). This group remains active in the North of Ngala – due to the presence of bases in Lake Chad area – and in Kala Balge LGA where it has a freedom of movement in the southern part of the LGA. ISWAP groups are very mobile and base their actions on guerrilla warfare (ambushes, IED’s, hit- and-run tactic). Skirmishes with NAF can occur during the patrols. The actual NAF deployment is centered on: The control of the road Dikwa – Ngala to keep it open for commercial convoys, The control of the LGA’s Headquarters, The capability to conduct combat patrols from bases in order to conduct a zone control deeply inside the LGA’s.

  • FEWS NET Special Report: a Famine Likely Occurred in Bama LGA and May Be Ongoing in Inaccessible Areas of Borno State
    December 13, 2016 A Famine likely occurred in Bama LGA and may be ongoing in inaccessible areas of Borno State This report summarizes an IPC-compatible analysis of Local Government Areas (LGAs) and select IDP concentrations in Borno State, Nigeria. The conclusions of this report have been endorsed by the IPC’s Emergency Review Committee. This analysis follows a July 2016 multi-agency alert, which warned of Famine, and builds off of the October 2016 Cadre Harmonisé analysis, which concluded that additional, more detailed analysis of Borno was needed given the elevated risk of Famine. KEY MESSAGES A Famine likely occurred in Bama and Banki towns during 2016, and in surrounding rural areas where conditions are likely to have been similar, or worse. Although this conclusion cannot be fully verified, a preponderance of the available evidence, including a representative mortality survey, suggests that Famine (IPC Phase 5) occurred in Bama LGA during 2016, when the vast majority of the LGA’s remaining population was concentrated in Bama Town and Banki Town. Analysis indicates that at least 2,000 Famine-related deaths may have occurred in Bama LGA between January and September, many of them young children. Famine may have also occurred in other parts of Borno State that were inaccessible during 2016, but not enough data is available to make this determination. While assistance has improved conditions in accessible areas of Borno State, a Famine may be ongoing in inaccessible areas where conditions could be similar to those observed in Bama LGA earlier this year. Significant assistance in Bama Town (since July) and in Banki Town (since August/September) has contributed to a reduction in mortality and the prevalence of acute malnutrition, though these improvements are tenuous and depend on the continued delivery of assistance.

  • Borno State - Monguno LGA Humanitarian Situation Overview (October – November) 10 January 2020
    Borno State - Monguno LGA Humanitarian Situation Overview (October – November) 10 January 2020 This report is produced by OCHA Nigeria in collaboration with humanitarian partners. It covers the period from October to December 2019. The next report will be issued at the end of January and will maintain a monthly cycle. Overview Humanitarian partners continue to scale up operations across all sectors to provide life-saving assistance to over 158, 000 displaced people despite several challenges. A biometric verification exercise of IDPs previously registered was completed confirming only a few new arrivals. The verification will enable partners to target assistance consistently across the camps. The suspension of ACF/AAH operations in September affected 14,000HHs who went without food rations for almost two months, resorting to harmful coping mechanisms such as children hawking or begging and stealing. Protection concerns such as transactional sex also heightened in the community. Following the end of the rainy season, nine fire incidents were reported. About 500 people across nine of the 12 IDP camps were affected between 24 October and 27 November 2019. State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) and CCCM/Shelter/NFIs sector partners are assisting the fire victims. Cases of Acute Water Diarrhea (AWD) and measles were reported in October and November. Three AWD fatalities were reported while 30 cases tested positive to Rapid Diagnostic Test (RDT), suggesting cholera. The humanitarian community has made adequate contingency plans in case of a cholera outbreak. In October, 53 cases of measles were reported. According to the health sector partners, population movement is responsible for the trend.
