Zusammenfassung:Boko Haram’s kidnap of over 200 girls from a school in Northern Nigeria drew the world’s attention to the disruption and violence that the extremist group has wrought over the region since the early 2000s. As Nigeria and its neighbouring countries continue to work towards containing the group militarily, this essay highlights the importance of ensuring that longer lasting solutions are not forgotten particularly those that could remedy economic problems which tend to create environments in which extremism can take root and grow.
