Boko Haram is an extremist Sunni Islamist organization which has links to al-Qaeda. It is primarily based in Nigeria's predominantly Muslim north (as compared to predominantly Christian, Yoruba, and Indigenous Religious south). As an Islamist organization, they wish to overthrow the moderately secular nature of Nigeria's governmental structure and institute an Islamic State governed by a repressive reading of Islamic Law. They have targeted Christian minorities in the north and have been increasingly brazen in their attacks against Nigerian southerners, such as the kidnapping of 200 schoolgirls from southern Nigeria to be child brides against their will.
