The document discusses ethnic issues and conflicts in Nigeria. It outlines the objectives of different ethnic groups which include demands for autonomy, competing land claims, and political dominance. It then examines the case study of Boko Haram, an Islamic sect that turned to violence in 2009 to create a pure Islamic state. Boko Haram uses tactics like bombings and arson but its goals differ from global jihadists. The government has taken brutal countermeasures that are counterproductive and fuel Boko Haram's expansion. Effective multi-ethnic education is proposed to help resolve Nigeria's ethnic issues by teaching each group's unique features and shared experiences.
