Can you believe there is a group that s worse than ISIS? I am reading about Nigeria's Boko Haram terrorist network. They look awful and sound scary. Wouldn't you love to win the contest for deadliest terror group? It is costing more than one hundred billion to fight terrorism worldwide.
A new report tracking terrorist attacks around the world said the Nigerian militant group was responsible for nearly 600 more deaths last year than the Islamic State.

I guess that you remember the charlie hebdo attack, at the same time as the attack occurred another attack happened Nigeria in which boko haram killed over 2000 villagers. Aaaand in addition to that boko haram claimed allegiance to ISIS later this year, so in conclusion they are the same entity just different region.
Boko Haram may have just killed 2,000 people: ‘Killing went on and on and on’
www.washingtonpost.com
"The indiscriminate killings went on and on and on," one Nigerian senator told BBC.

They're the group who kidnapped American schoolchildren earlier this year or last and the parents to my knowledge never did get them back. I think they were with the American Embassy - though I could be mistaken.

Terrorists are all the same to me. I never heard about them getting their kids back.

The kids I heard them took was their fellow Nigerian shebok girls school, they finally mess those girls up before returning some.

Boko Haram was already in the news before IS and it came as no surprise at what they have done. But they will have their day of payback. They are successful because Nigeria is simply too unprepared for them and underdeveloped as well.
