Nigeria has continued to experience the menace of Boko Haram insurgency over the years. While some progress has been made over the years in curbing the activities of the insurgency in some quarters, the unabated violence against women and its implication on women and girls remain unresolved. As a pointer to the need for a deliberate and focused attention on violence against women and girls due to Boko Haram insurgency in Nigeria, this paper, through the review of relevant literature explores the activities of the insurgency and violence against women. This paper further investigates the implication of violence against women and the social structure as whole. The paper concludes by making recommendation on how the menace of Boko Haram insurgency can be addressed in order to address gender violence against women and crime against womanhood.
