Terrorism in West Africa: Boko Haram, Adding Some Few Recommendations to the Yamoussoukro Declaration
Countries in West Africa are already going through several challenges that most governments are trying hard to address. The current Nigerian experience with Boko Haram shows the severity of the negative impact that terrorism can have on a country. In view of this, this paper takes a critical look at certain aspects of the proposed ECOWAS counterterrorism architecture, and makes recommendations that will help in its implementation. It strongly contends that, the fight against this threat in West Africa, should be seen as a serious collective national responsibility which must include individuals, households and State agencies.
