Formed after the 2009 Maiduguri conflict when a small minority Christian sect was targeted by the Nigerian Government, Junduallh members teamed up with the surviving students of Sheikh Muhammad Yusuf (Boko Haram’s first leader). Many members of the Christian ethnic group converted to Islam to join up with Shekau’s Boko Haram. Disillusioned with Shekau, they split forming Harakat Al-Muhajirin in 2014. Mostly Nigerians, but reenforced with foreign fighters from Chad, Sudan, Cameroon, South Sudan, Niger and Libya, the group has fought in Darfur, the Nuba Mountains, along the Blue Nile, and South Kordofan in Sudan, as well as in Eastern Chad, Libya and North Mali. Centre of OperationsThe group's headquarters are in Northern Cameroon (Adamawa and Garoua) and Nigeria (Yobe State).

Groups and individuals included in TRAC's database range from actual perpetrators of social or political violence to more passive groups that support or condone (perhaps unwittingly) such violence. The spectrum of violence represented by these groups is vast, from Jihadists who bomb train stations to financial institutions that transfer funds. Some groups that originally engaged in violence but have since become legitimate political parties are included to provide historical perspective. TRAC is in no way attempting to determine whether groups or individuals are terrorists -- only to convey reported information about their activities and official State status. While TRAC attempts to ensure the accuracy of its TRAC database, the entries in the database are from numerous different sources. Hence, TRAC cannot and does not warrant the accuracy of the entries in its database. The editors of TRAC may modify these entries at any time and welcome comments and suggested corrections or additions. Please write [email protected] or hit the "SUBMIT ADDITIONS" button on the page of the group profile about which you wish to comment.
