CNA Small Group Discussion Aiding Cameroons Effort to Counter Boko Haram

/analyses/2015/cna-small-group-discussion-aiding-cameroons-effort-to-counter-boko-haram

Since 2009, Boko Haram has waged a campaign of violence and intimidation in Nigeria, mostly in the country’s northeast. Thousands of civilians have been killed, and the pace of violence seems to have increased in recent months. The government of Nigeria has seen the conflict as a terrorism issue, and has relied on a narrow, largely military response. Despite its efforts to quell the rising tide of violence, it has thus far been erratic and less than effective in combating Boko Haram. CNA’s analysis (with which the small group participants agreed) is that the Boko Haram conflict is an insurgency requiring a broad-based, whole-of-government response that addresses the conflict’s underlying economic, political, and social root causes. Because Nigeria seems reluctant to take that approach and because Boko Haram has been launching attacks and raids into neighboring countries, two recently completed CNA studies, Rethinking the U.S. Approach to Boko Haram: The Case for a Regional Strategy and Diagnosing the Boko Haram Conflict: Grievances, Motivations, and Institutional Resilience in Northeast Nigeria, recommended that the United States focus on supporting a regional approach to the conflict that would include Nigeria’s neighbors.
