NIGERIA: ‘OUR JOB IS TO SHOOT, SLAUGHTER AND KILL’: BOKO HARAM’S REIGN OF TERROR IN NORTH EAST NIGERIA: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Boko Haram has killed thousands of people, abducted at least 2000 and forced more than a million to flee their homes since 2009. Through a campaign of almost daily killings, bombings, abductions, looting and burning, Boko Haram has crippled normal life in north-east Nigeria. Amnesty International’s research shows that Boko Haram has committed war crimes and crimes against humanity with impunity.
