ISWAP cells stepped up their operations in northeastern Nigeria, mainly in the provinces of Borno and Yobe, in the last few months.
Nigerian government forces operate nonstop against the terrorists group. However, very little have been achieved, thus far. The group have been spreading its radical ideology in the northeastern region with much success.
