Civilian Joint Task Force

The Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF) is a loose group of militants that was formed in Maiduguri, Nigeria to help oust Boko Haram Islamist fighters from their city. The group possesses basic weapons and has female members. The vigilante group numbers over 26,000 in Borno State, of which only 1,800 receive a salary ($50 per month). The CJTF has lost approximately 600 of its members in the conflict.

The CJTF has been accused of abuses, including slaughtering men beside a mass grave, diverting food destined for starving families and beating men and subjecting women and girls to systematic sexual violence in camps.
