It is all known that poverty, unemployment, illiteracy, bad governance and weak family structures make or contribute to making young men vulnerable to radicalization expecially in North East . Itinerant preachers capitalize on the situation by preaching an extreme version of religious teachings and conveying a narrative of the government as weak and corrupt. Armed groups used that opportunity to recruit and train youth for activities ranging from errand running to suicide bombings.
Having know the causes and if rightly tackled, not only we will bring an end to insurgency but all prevent future occurance of this deadly activities. The North East is a home of peace and progress, soonest we will reclaim our status.
