Bloodshed in the northern states of Borno, Yobe, Adamawa,
Gombe, Taraba, and Bauchi terrified residents to abandon their homes for safety
across the 36 states of the federation and across borders. Since 2009, killings and destructions in the mentioned
states by members of Jama’atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda’awati Wal-Jihad, popularly
known as Boko Haram (BH), have affected about fourteen million people.
