Abstract: This study aimed at identifying major impacts of Boko Haram insurgency on Nigerian state. In carrying out this study, the paper employed documentary sources and qualitative method in generating data while Frustration aggression theory was adopted as framework of analysis. From the study it was discovered that Boko Haram insurgency impacted negatively on Nigerian state through destruction of lives and properties, disruption of business, reduction in government revenue, fear of foreign investors to live and do business in Nigeria, political instability among others. The paper examines the causative factors and unravels the dominants causes of Boko Haram insurgency in Nigeria. Specifically, it also provides a better understanding of the growth and development of Boko Haram terrorists. Consequently, the paper recommends that, instead of using military repressive actions to curb the menace, there is need for Nigerian state to address the root cause(s) of the insurgency which includes poverty, corruption, weak institutions, economic deprivation, illiteracy and religious intolerance among several others.
