FAILURE OF HUMAN INTELLIGENCE, BOKO HARAM AND TERRORISM IN NIGERIA
ABSTRACT
There is a stark contrast between the way suicide bombings and other terrorist activities take place and the way all these happen with precision without detection by Nigeria’s security and intelligence agencies. The Boko Haram menace highlights several issues underlying the drivers of sustainable development and human insecurity in Nigeria. The infiltration of its members in government and security agencies validates the grossly-compromised public institutions argument in Nigeria. Based on open source information, extensive library search and drawing from facts gathered from existing literature, this paper documents and analyses the failure of human intelligence, explores other enabling contextual factors that gave birth to Boko Haram. It argues that Boko Haram has become a vehicle for the disintegration of Nigeria and a threat to good governance and sustainable development. With a view to guiding appropriate interventions, the interrogations that will guide the analysis include: Is Boko Haram motivated by economic injustice?
