Is it ethical to reintegrate ex-Boko Haram fighters into society? Using utilitarian moral principles as a theoretical framework, the study showed that the decision to reintegrate ex-Boko Haram members into the society is in line with the utilitarian perspective because decision-makers did so after considering the negative effects that rejecting them would cause. However, it argued that the outcome of the reintegration program did not lead to the ultimate purpose of utilitarian theory because policymakers failed to consider happiness of both direct and indirect victims of Boko Haram attack. In order to reach a moral decision that will ensure a successful reintegration program and meet the utilitarian aim, the study recommends considering the concerns of people whose happiness has been negatively impacted by Boko Haram terrorism and how to address their issues
