Boka Haram

In Nigeria, Africa there is a group called Boka Haram that are an extreme Muslim group. They have been beheading, killing, and using civilians to torture others, who are not Muslim and do not agree to join them. This group captures women of all ages and holds them captive in a house and marries them off or uses them for other purposes. The Nigerian government is not stepping in to stop it. The group made it mandatory for everyone to attend mass prayers three times a day, and children had to work for Boka Haram, and if they didn't they would kill the children.
