Boko HaramTerrorism and Nigeria's development vision

This work investigated the impact of Boko HaramTerrorism on the Socio-Economic Development of Nigeria within the time frame of 2007–2012. We hypothesized that Boko Haramterrorist escapades have weakened investor confidence and slowed down economic activities in Nigeria. Using qualitative method, we collected and evaluated secondary data to test and validated our hypothesis. Noting that Boko Haramterrorism emerged from the political and socio-economic environment of Nigeria, which has not enjoyed the true impact of governance, and that government has poorly responded to the menace, we made recommendations aimed at proffering a suitable solution chief among which are good governance and intelligence gathering. In the later regard, we highlighted the need for government to adopt a strategy of infiltrating the organization.
