Abstract
Boko Haram Insurgency is used to assess national security under previous President Jonathan. Some scholars link insecurity to individual lives and existence. Boko Haram is the result of politicians' thirst for power. This study investigates the effects that the Boko Haram insurgency had on the security of Nigeria under the administration of former president Jonathan, the origin of Boko Haram and factors responsible for insurgency in Nigeria, and the implications of Boko Haram insurgency on national security in Nigeria under former president Jonathan. Primary and secondary sources provided the study's data. This study project employed the basic percentage approach to analyze the replies, with 100% representing a sample size of 100. The data were sorted according to the study questions. R=0.853 implies a positive correlation. Therefore, Boko-Haram insurgency and national security in Nigeria under Goodluck Ebele Jonathan are linked. It was advised that the federal government see these people as terrorists who help and abet terrorism in Nigeria. They should be detained and convicted to act as a deterrence to others.
