No offence to our members across the pond but, when America says a country is a "terrorist country" they (usually) mean a country that means them (the USA) harm, but is Nigeria a "terrorist country"? I think not, as "terrorist" can have different definitions.
Nigeria's pace of development is very slow, that is reflected in the (disgraceful) way it treats women.
In my half bakes eyes, the way it treats it's women is also a form of "terrorism".
But terrorism is 'a tactic', "a tactic" used by 'all states', but its nothing more than the use of violence to reach political ends and I think Nigeria is no more a "terrorist country" than say England or the USA

A few days ago a British reporter showed the first scenes to reach our TV sets of villages and a small town razed to the ground by the Bocum terrorists.
Senior journalist John Simpson then managed to
inveigle a lift to one such place with the governor of the region.arrange
Simpson's short film didn't show much, except that the governor could show a clean pair of heels and managed to run the gauntlet of the angry locals reaching the safety of his car before John Simpson did.
