What again is Boko Haram doing in Nigeria?

I bought an Independent especially after hearing the World Service about the group "Boko Haram"who unfortunately seem to be a very scarey.
There was nothing in the papers only a small piece in The Guardian, why is this? It seems that this group wants their ideology to be accepted. They are a "Puritan Salafist group that want things to go back to where things were before!" The major problem is we don't get the news as it happens! We have to pick the stations that we watch or listen to, to get the full picture! We have heard of information and disinformation! What can we do about it? What should we do about it? The group is so complex that I find them very difficult to explain!
On Sunday there was a piece on the 10 o'clock news on the B.B.C. that this group had taken an area by force and were terrorising a village and demanding that the women marry the fighters of the group and the men who stand against them get their limbs cut off!
