There is a growing contentious debate among scholars, on the continuous Boko Haram insurgency in Nigeria, despite the effort of the government and interventions of the international community in waging war against insurgency in African.

Drawing lessons from US experience on nation-building and Zero-tolerance migration foreign policy. The study contends that Nigeria’s weak response to nation-building and meager migration policy had resulted in the constant insurgency in the country. The study accentuates or high light, the idea of incorrigible leadership style to ex-ray the attitude of leaders towards nations building and migration policy.

Introduction
This is approximately eleven years of activities of the Jihadist group Boko Haram insurgency in Nigeria. Their main motive was to establish an Islamic state in Nigeria. And their activities had also extended to most of the African countries. There is an establishment of the multinational joint task force within Africa which was supported by the African Union. Most belligerent states include Chad, Mali, Cameroun, Niger, and Nigeria. In the North East of Nigeria, the conflict escalated, spreading its tentacles to the other states. The expansion within the time framework was attributed to the growing fragmentation of the movement, development of strategic ties with the A1 Qaeda affiliates, strong aimed counter-terrorist operation, with the porous border area that separates Nigeria and its neighbors, (Weerarartne, 2017). The continuous spreading also was because of weak governance, which relied on military optionin managing challenges of legitimacy and radicalization of violent non-state actors, (Osumah, 2019). The existence of non-reliable governance often can pave way for another to coexist. There is the need to address certain areas more especially pressing needs of the populace, ranging issues from poverty reduction, through employment generation at all levels, government activating the private sector development, firms and empowering the youth and women through skillful development with enhanced governance and the integration of all ethnic groups, (Alege and Ojoduwa, 2019). Strategically at another angle, the government operation is reduced at the organization level, an external institutionalized motivation that is geared towards the Jihadist movement for the Islamic state. Also, continuous fight for insurgency has currently exacerbated by the continuous outgrowth of elements marginalized of development both economically and politically and more importantly infrastructural development in the country. The paradox of development within the geo-political zones represents a high level of underdevelopment, especially in the Northern part of Nigeria.
