2/ 2015 was by far the deadliest w.r.t. #BokoHaram in Cameroon but as we thought it was over, 2020 has actually recorded more incidents, less deadly, probably showing a pattern change (more looting...). Nevertheless this year has been deadlier than the previous two

7/ but June and Jul 2020 were quite terrible. Nevertheless, 2020 shows a decrease in lethality of attacks but the number of incidents seems quite sustained probably more targeted like the Kumba massacre?
8/ My hope is that the platform would help experts conduct more in-depth analysis hence tagging @africatechie @dibussi @KahWalla @ChrisFomunyoh @iayongwa @billyb2009 and probably missing a few, sorry
