It is worth mentioning that local jihadists of Nigeria formed Boko Haram in the year 2009. The objective of this organization was to impose a radical Islamic system while opposing Western education. For this purpose, the terrorists of the organization spread terror by carrying out dozens of barbaric incidents. After the death of Boko Haram's notorious leader Abubakar Shekau in 2021, the organization split into two parts. One faction is associated with the Islamic State group and is known as Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP). This faction usually attacks the army. The other faction Jama'atu Ahlis Sunna Liddavati Wal-Jihad (JAS) targets civilians and carries out incidents of ransom and robbery.
