Abstract: Nigeria is currently facing attacks and violence from Boko Haram terrorist group, which is threatening its territorial integrity, sovereignty, peace, and political stability. This has been one of the major issues affecting the development of the country since 2009. The expansion of the group since inception from a non-violent group to an internationally recognized terrorist group has been attributed to two factors: Lack of trust in the political system and the dissatisfaction of the citizens with the economic policies of the government, inflation, and poverty. Thus, the aim of the research work is to understand the implications of the terrorist group on political and economic development in Nigeria. This thesis analyses the implication of Boko Haram on political and economic development of the country and how it has increase inflation, poverty and poor standard of living to the citizens. Keywords: Terrorism, Nigeria, Boko Haram, National Development, Insecurity
ÖZ: Nijerya, Boko Haram terör örgütü tarafından saldırılara uğramaktadır ve söz konusu durum ülkenin toprak bütünlüğünü, egemenliğini, barış ve huzuru ve siyasi istikrarı tehdit etmektedir. Bu olay, 2009 yılından itibaren ülkenin kalkınmasını etkileyen başlıca meselelerden olmuştur. Başlangıcında şiddet-dışı bir grup olan Boko Haram, zaman içerisinde uluslararası anlamda terörist örgüt olarak tanımlanan bir grup haline dönüşmüştür. Bu dönüşümün gelişmesi iki etkene dayandırılmaktadır: Siyasi sisteme olan güven eksiksiği; ve, vatandaşların hükümetin ekonomi politikalarına, enflasyona, ve yoksulluğa karşı olan hoşnutsuzluğu. Bu bağlamda tez, Boko Haram terör örgütü faaliyetlerinin Nijerya’nın ulusal gelişiminde birçok olumsuz etkisi olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu hususta tezin tavsiyesi, hükümetin sorunun kök nedenlerini çözmeyi ele alması ve buna ilaveten silahlı kuvvetleri terör grupları ile mücadele kapsamında gelişmiş silah sistemleri ile donatması gerektiği yönündedir. Anahtar kelimeler: Terörizm, Nijerya, Boko Haram, Ulusal Kalkınma, Emniyetsizlik
