Missouri State University will host a forum on the terrorist organization Boko Haram on February 19th. Dr. Bukola Oyeniyi, a professor of history at MSU, will examine Boko Haram's history, objectives, and the underlying factors driving its attacks in Nigeria. The forum aims to address why counter-terrorism efforts have failed and should focus on underlying issues rather than just defeating Boko Haram. It also seeks to raise global awareness of terrorism in Africa.
