Abstract

The impacts of climate change in Nigeria are extending beyond changes in the weather, leading to huge changes in the lives of individual Nigerians, the Nigerian Government and Boko Haram, a terrorist organization. The reduction of the agricultural industry and the oil industry are going to create a welcoming environment for Boko Haram to grow. Unless changes are made to the Nigerian economic sector, the immediate impacts of climate change is likely to increase Boko Haram recruits.
