Lessons from Colombia for Curtailing the Boko Haram Insurgency in Nigeria
Lessons From Colombia For Curtailing The Boko Haram Insurgency In Nigeria BY AFEIKHENA JEROME igeria is a highly complex and ethnically diverse country, with over 400 ethnic groups. This diversity is played out in the way the country is bifurcated along the lines of reli- Ngion, language, culture, ethnicity and regional identity. The population of about 178.5 million people in 2014 is made up of Christians and Muslims in equal measures of about 50 percent each, but including many who embrace traditional religions as well. The country has continued to experience serious and violent ethno-communal conflicts since independence in 1960, including the bloody and deadly thirty month fratricidal Civil War (also known as the Nigerian-Biafran war, 1967-70) when the eastern region of Biafra declared its seces- sion and which claimed more than one million lives. The most prominent of these conflicts recently pitch Muslims against Christians in a dangerous convergence of religion, ethnicity and politics. The first and most dramatic eruption in a series of recent religious disturbances was the Maitatsine uprising in Kano in December 1980, in which about 4,177 died. While the exact number of conflicts in Nigeria is unknown, because of a lack of reliable sta- tistical data, it is estimated that about 40 percent of all conflicts have taken place since the coun- try’s return to civilian rule in 1999.1 The increasing wave of violent conflicts across Nigeria under the current democratic regime is no doubt partly a direct consequence of the activities of ethno- communal groups seeking self-determination in their “homelands,” and of their surrogate ethnic militias that have assumed prominence since the last quarter of 2000.

Living Through Nigeria's Six-Year
“When We Can’t See the Enemy, Civilians Become the Enemy” Living Through Nigeria’s Six-Year Insurgency About the Report This report explores the experiences of civilians and armed actors living through the conflict in northeastern Nigeria. The ultimate goal is to better understand the gaps in protection from all sides, how civilians perceive security actors, and what communities expect from those who are supposed to protect them from harm. With this understanding, we analyze the structural impediments to protecting civilians, and propose practical—and locally informed—solutions to improve civilian protection and response to the harm caused by all armed actors in this conflict. About Center for Civilians in Conflict Center for Civilians in Conflict (CIVIC) works to improve protection for civil- ians caught in conflicts around the world. We call on and advise international organizations, governments, militaries, and armed non-state actors to adopt and implement policies to prevent civilian harm. When civilians are harmed we advocate the provision of amends and post-harm assistance. We bring the voices of civilians themselves to those making decisions affecting their lives. The organization was founded as Campaign for Innocent Victims in Conflict in 2003 by Marla Ruzicka, a courageous humanitarian killed by a suicide bomber in 2005 while advocating for Iraqi families.

NORTH-EAST NIGERIA: Flash Update #2 Geidam and Yunusari Lgas, Yobe State As of 5 May 2021
NORTH-EAST NIGERIA: Flash Update #2 Geidam and Yunusari LGAs, Yobe State As of 5 May 2021 HIGHLIGHTS • A second attack in less than a week by Non-State Armed Groups (NSAGs) occurred in Yobe State, this time in Kanama town, the capital of Yunusari LGA, where an estimated 30,000 people fled for safety. Kanama is about 35 kilometres from Geidam where the first attack occurred on 23 April and 150,000 people were known to flee to neighbouring towns (see Geidam Flash Update #1). • Ongoing insecurity in Geidam and Kanama towns, as well as remote locations in Yunusari, Yusufari, Bursari and Tarmua LGAs, is impeding access to IDPs. The scarcity of resources to respond to needs remains challenging for government and partners. • Multiple displacements and complex movements are impacting efforts to identify and register many of the IDPs. • New arrivals in host communities have signalled food, NFI, shelter, WASH, health and protection services among the most urgent needs. The majority of those displaced are women and children who face grave protection risks across transit and hosting sites, with several children unaccompanied and family members still missing. • The Yobe State Government, humanitarian partners, civil society organisations and host communities continue to provide critical life-saving assistance to IDPs, some repurposing resources earmarked for other programmes to facilitate rapid response to emergency needs. • Resource mobilisation efforts by State Government and partners are ongoing to ramp up life-saving response, especially as resources of host communities rapidly deplete due to the influx of IDPs. OCHA is supporting State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) to roll out LGA-level mechanisms to intensify response and identify/register the most vulnerable groups for priority assistance.

Nigeria Regional Transition Initiative (NRTI) in September 2014 to Diminish Conditions That Allow Boko Haram to Exist and Flourish in North East Nigeria
Office of Transition Initiatives (OTI) N IGERIA Annual Report: FY 2018 P ROGRAM DESCRIPTION FACT SHEET #7, FISCAL YEAR (FY) 2013 JANUARY 15, 2013 The United States Agency for International Development’s Office of Transition Initiatives (OTI) launched the Nigeria Regional Transition Initiative (NRTI) in September 2014 to diminish conditions that allow Boko Haram to exist and flourish in North East Nigeria. An intensified military offensive by Nigeria, along with support from Cameroon, Chad, Niger, and limited support from the United States, has enabled the Government of Nigeria to reclaim areas previously held by Boko Haram. Coupled with a peaceful change in presidency in 2015 and significant military advances, a sense of optimism loomed in North East Nigeria in the past two years. However, recent counterattacks by insurgents and the emergence of the Islamic State West Africa Province indicates that a long path to recovery still remains. In the midst of a dynamic security situation, NRTI identifies and supports activities OTI MISSION STATEMENT that positively impact citizens’ conditions while minimizing the space that allows terrorists to exist, operate, and thrive in their current environment.

An Overview of Boko Haram Insurgency in Nigeria
DOI: 10.21276/sjhss.2016.1.2.4 Saudi Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences ISSN 2415-6256 (Print) Scholars Middle East Publishers ISSN 2415-6248 (Online) Dubai, United Arab Emirates Website: http://scholarsmepub.com/ An Overview of Boko Haram Insurgency in Nigeria Adam Adem Anyebe Department of Public Administration, Faculty of Administration, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria- Nigeria *Corresponding Author: Adam Adem Anyebe Email: [email protected] Abstract: This study attempted to carry out an overview of the Yussufiyya Boko Haram sect and its activities in Nigeria. Secondary data obtained mainly from National newspapers and the internets were used in the analysis. It was revealed that the sect emerged mainly as a reaction to western value system which was believed to have polluted our culture. Boko Haram which was once a social communal movement gradually metamorphosed into a vicious sect operating in some states of the north-east of Nigeria. The study also showed that Boko Haram had a dream of establishing a kind of Utopian egalitarian society and to achieve this task, recruited gullible youths to stage a Jihad in an attempt to Islamize, at least the northern part of Nigeria. The sect in recent past has evolved and proliferated to such a frightening point that it could engage the Nigerian military in full-blown confrontation in an attempt to pursue its ruthless expansionist ambition. This ambition has however, been significantly checked as the sect has been technically defeated and restricted to the sambisa forest. It is recommended among others that government should continue to use the carrot and stick approach in handling the insurgency while making attempts to have an understanding of the sect‟s ideology as this will assist in the de- radicalisation process.

Growth Geographical Determinants of the Structural and Functional
Growth Vol. 1, No. 1, 10-17, 2014 http://asianonlinejournals.com/index.php/Growth Geographical Determinants of the Structural and Functional Growth of Damaturu Town in Yobe State, Nigeria Ahmed AbubakarJajere1* --- Ibrahim Jaro Musa2 --- Muhammad Isma’il3 1Department of Geography, Umar Sulaiman College of Education, Gashua 2,3Department of Geography, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria Abstract Damaturu town became the capital of Yobe State when the state was created in 1991. Since then, the town has been experiencing rapid changes in the landuse/landcover types due to urban expansion, economic development, and social transformation in the town. This study examined the geographical determinants of the growth of Damaturu town from 1986 to 2009. The satellite imageries of Damaturu were obtained processed and analysed using Remote Sensing and Geographic Information System techniques to determine the growth rate of the town within the period of study. This was complemented with the information acquired from the field survey to achieve the objectives of the study. Findings revealed that within this period (1991-1999), Damaturu built-up area increased about four times while the urban area increased more than four times. This significant growth was influenced by the location of the administrative offices and housing estates at the periphery of the town, categorisation of the land into administrative, residential, commercial, and industrial areas; as well as the transportation network and substantial population growth within the period. The most influential change within the second period (1999-2005) was increased agriculture and significant urban expansion. Within the current period (2005-2009), the urban area expanded by about 22Km2.

NORTH-EAST NIGERIA: Flash Update #1 Geidam LGA, Yobe State As of 1 May 2021
NORTH-EAST NIGERIA: Flash Update #1 Geidam LGA, Yobe State As of 1 May 2021 HIGHLIGHTS • Up to 150,000 civilians have fled Geidam town, Yobe State, after multiple attacks occurred since 23 April 2021, targeting communities and forcing almost the entire population of the town to seek safety. • Many IDPs are in transit along routes leading to neighbouring towns in northern Yobe in Yunusari, Yusufari, Muzugun, Gashua, Nguru and its state capital, Damaturu. The state government is ensuring IDPs in transit locations, and host communities are supported, while efforts continue to contain the safety and security of Geidam town. • SEMA has mobilised local authorities and community leaders in their respective LGAs to support the response. • The Governor of Yobe State summoned an Emergency Security Meeting on 27 April, attended by government members, critical stakeholders including traditional rulers, where he highlighted the increased presence of NSAGs in the state. • An inter-agency emergency coordination centre (ECC) has been established in Gashua, Bade LGA, to facilitate and monitor response operations. • Host community households, religious groups, and volunteers are providing the first line of support to the displaced persons including shelter, cooked meals, water, sleeping mats and other basic needs. • A rapid assessment team from OCHA, with support from the government and partners, arrived in Gashua on 28 April to provide first-hand information on sector priorities. Chronology • 23 April: Geidam was attacked by suspected Non-State Armed Group (NSAG). • 29 April: Attack of Kanamma town, the administrative headquarters of Yunusari LGA, located some 35 kilometres north of Geidam town; though no civilian casualty was reported, this has raised concerns of further displacements and possible crossings of people into the neighbouring Republic of the Niger.
