dc.description.abstractEvery nation of the world is conscious of her political image. It is the bargaining power of most nations among the comity of states. Nigeria’s political image had been suffering from political leukaemia which is a combination of corruption and internal insurgency. The political image of Nigeria facing the menace of Boko Haram had become battered by the outburst of the insurgency in 2009 till 2016. Many countries have further placed Nigerians on a closely watched mirror of terrorist attack prone state. With this advancing development, Nigeria’s future relevance in political landscape of the world might be in jeopardy. This paper analyses the political implications of Boko Haram insurgence and its trend in Nigeria. The research analytical tool of process tracing is used in this study. The broken window theory is used to further justify the spread and activities of the insurgent groups. This paper concludes by submitting that insurgencies like cancerous growth and time bomb, defaces the state and a virile political effort is needed to stop the future harm on the state.en_US
