Strategic Thinking an apparatus to deciphering Nigeria's Security Enigma

ABSTRACT 

Effective  strategic  thinking  requires  a  clear  understanding  of  one’s  external  environment. Therefore, looking at the Nigerian environment of the 21st century, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the Nights of some African Countries e.g. Ghana, is safer and more secure than the day in Nigeria (over 200 girls were kidnapped in Chibok in April 2014 in broad daylight). It is no news anymore that the state of security in Nigeria is in a deplorable condition as the once known GIANT of Africa is now the ANT of Africa that requires military assistance from other smaller countries such as Niger, Cameroon and Chad to combat an insurgence that was originally domestic. These has led these smaller countries to begin to raise their shoulders high and declare that they are the ones RESCUING Nigeria.   It is with this thought in mind that this paper shall attempt to examine the relevance of strategic thought to the contemporary security situation in Nigeria by Zero-in on Boko Haram. Keywords: security, insecurity, Boko Haram, Strategic thinking.
