Abstract

This study evaluated Nigeria’s counterinsurgency strategies against the Boko Haram insurgency. It employed a historical research design and used content analysis to interpret the data. The study involved a thorough review of existing literature and documents to extract relevant information. The data were analyzed using trend analysis methods. Findings showed that Nigeria’s military response to Boko Haram has been dynamic and multi-pronged, encompassing direct military engagements, institutional reforms, regional partnerships, and community-based strategies. Since the insurgency’s onset in 2009, the government has adopted a comprehensive approach, integrating military, legal, socio-economic, and diplomatic instruments to address the crisis, recognizing that lasting solutions require more than force alone. However, ongoing obstacles, such as inadequate logistics and outdated military hardware, have impeded progress. Intelligence lapses have also worsened the security situation, particularly in areas heavily affected by the insurgency. The study concluded that overcoming Boko Haram necessitates strong political commitment, operational transparency, increased regional cooperation, and a citizen-focused strategy that emphasizes security, justice, and inclusive development. Achieving sustainable peace will require a holistic, long-term effort. Among its recommendations, the study urged the Nigerian government to invest in modern military assets, such as surveillance systems, armored vehicles, and communication devices, and to establish efficient logistics and supply chains to support troops on the front lines better.

Abstract

The paper, titled "Resurgence of Military Coups in the West African Sub-region and the Implications of the Emergence of the Alliance of Sahel States (AES)," focuses on the military coups in Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger between 2020 and 2023. These coups constitute disturbing political events that raise serious concerns about political stability in the junta States and the region as a whole. Most importantly, it threatens the future of democratic governance in the West African Sub-region. The aftermath of sanctions on Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger by Economic Community of West Africa States (ECOWAS) and the threat of military intervention amongst other factors gave impetus to the formation of the contending bloc; Alliance of Sahel States (AES) in the region thus leading to fragmentation of the union of ECOWAS, divisive politics, regional economic sabotage by AES member States amongst other unfolding implications. The paper addresses this issue by setting two objectives for the study: to identify the factors underlying recent coups and to examine the impact of the AES on ECOWAS. The State fragility theory was adopted as a framework for the study. The research is qualitative; accordingly, a historical research design was adopted. Findings reveal that though the AES is founded on grounds of addressing rising insecurity amongst its members, the bloc also serves as a tool for legitimizing these junta governments. Also, existing regional cooperative security frameworks and trade liberalization are threatened. The paper recommends that the ruling elite prioritize a sincere and committed focus on enhancing democracy and, by extension, promoting good governance, and that ECOWAS adopt a systemic approach to curtail rising insecurity in the region to facilitate trade and investment. At the same time, continued diplomatic engagement should be used to win back estranged members
