This paper synthesizes the assessment of anti-corruption strategies adopted by previous administrations in Nigeria, and the effectiveness of Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). Factors militating against the effectiveness of EFCC were identified, and solutions proffered. Corruption in education was also noted. The administration of some heads of state before the establishment of EFCC were discovered to fuel corruption, while some administrations proved to have adopted Gandhian approach to fight corruption; they recorded success but were not sustained because their efforts were found to have been frustrated by their succeeding administrations. The results of the frustrations lead to the establishment of EFCC which is an institution to tackle corruption during democracy. Finally, it was revealed that the achievement of EFCC's mandates is low. Towards anti-corruption strategies and the effectiveness of EFCC, recommendations were suggested. It is believed that if the recommendations were fully implemented, balanced development is inevitable.

Purpose: Boko Haram (BH) originated around 2002 as a local Islamic movement primarily for preaching and charity to locals in Maiduguri, Borno State. Their operations were altered in 2009 following a crackdown on its adherents by the Nigerian government, as a result of which spiritual and political head Muhammad Yusuf was assassinated. More than 38,000 individuals were killed by the Boko Haram conflict between 2009 and 2023. This study aims to assess the dangers posed by the BH uprisings on Nigeria's security, which is affecting other socioeconomic dynamics, to suggest potential solutions to the uprising in Nigeria.
Methodology: This study used a qualitative research approach. A structured questionnaire was utilized for data collection. Nigerian security personnel make up the study's target group. The participants were contacted based on convenience sampling. Data analysis was achieved using theme analysis.
Findings: The BH has increased its attacks against security forces and their formations, key government and private institutions, schools, worship centers (such as Churches and Mosques), and the general public, which includes girl-children and mothers. Their menace is eroding Nigeria's existence as a single sovereign political territory. The survey indicated that poverty and religious misunderstanding were the main reasons for establishing Boko Haram. It was suggested that the Nigerian government should address the cause by reducing poverty, creating jobs, and strengthening security operations.
Originality/value: Poverty and religious misunderstanding were the main reasons for establishing Boko Haram. Cities, towns, villages, and human settlements in northeast Nigeria are not safe, not inclusive, not resilient, and a challenge to sustainability.
