The self-acclaimed industrious brothers should apologize to Nigeria and perhaps set up some kind of Truth and Reconciliation Commission to get to uproot the criminal tendencies once and for all instead of expending efforts at boasting exceedingly, paranoia, narcissism, blaming others instead of taking responsibility for their actions, and complaining of marginalization. 4 Likes |

Forget eastern and whatever part that is responsible for kidnapping!!! We are Nigerians and its bad enough that, we are breaking records in all the bad things. We should endeavour not to compound issues with tribalism. Must everything bad has Naija in it? Chai! A whooping 25%! |

Rather than point fingers at a certain ethnic group, why not let's critically examine the problem and proffer a lasting solution to it? In the long run, we all loose-not only the ethnic group. |

We know that there are kidnappers in Nigeria but saying we are the global capital of the world is a lie. All these reports paint our country so bad like there aint people living in there - like its all bad. Funny enough, they would still come here to do business in the "global capital of kidnappers". Shior. Let them go to Venezuela, Brazil, Colombia and Mexico to conduct their survey and they would change their voices. In Brazil, for instance, lumberjacks kidnap villagers that wanna stop them from lumbering timbers in the forest. Venezuelans and Mexicans are professional kidnappers! Some people swallow reports as this hook, line and sinker without giving it a second thought. Our govt must also work hard to ensure that lives are properties are secured. Difficult but possible. God bless Nigeria. Frawzey 3 Likes |

to hell with their statistics jor Why do we allow tom dickk and mauritius to use Nigeria as scapegoat in all their mumu statistics. UN says this, US says dat, blahbla...Nigeria alone 25%? Then I'm sure all those drugs lords in mexico contribute an astounding 1% to d global record What solutions has d loud mouth organization proffered to curb d so-called kidnapping. And d mumu leaders of d giant of africa are busy sleeping on duty, wake up to share money then go back to sleep instead of calling all these questionable statistics to order. 4 Likes |

Or is it the Cynthia's case or the Spanish doctor that was abducted? Of course. The figures offered by the government diverge from those compiled by the independent Council for Law and Human Rights, or CLDH, which cites a total of 17,889 kidnappings in 2011: an average of 49 a day. From another source: MEXICO CITY – An average of 49 kidnappings per day occurred in Mexico in 2011, marking a significant increase from the prior year, the Council for Law and Human Rights, or CLDH, said. Excuse me while I look for 2011 numbers for Nigeria. It would have been nice if IIM left us with some numbers rather than their word. Mind you, IIM said reported cases. Up to 18,000 people report ransom cases to the police? They have faith. |

This is from 2009: Yakubu Lame, Nigeria’s minister of police, said in July that 512 kidnappings had been reported in the first half of this year, compared with 353 for the whole of last year. Nigeria is in the world’s top eight kidnapping hotspots, alongside war zones and failed states such as Afghanistan, Iraq and Somalia, according to U.S. security group Clayton Consultants. I'll use Wikipedia since recent sources are scarce (no Nigeria on this list): [quote]Global Kidnapping hot-spots 2006[21] Mexico Iraq India South Africa Brazil Pakistan Ecuador Venezuela Colombia Bangladesh SOURCE Rutgers University crime statistics for 2008. 309 kidnappings that year.

Ji_sun_pack: Good. you see what am saying? smh! Not at all. The statistics actually go against what you said. If by July 2009, there were 512 kidnappings, let's double it to get an approximation of 1,024 for 2009 in entirety. I do not believe kidnappings have risen 1,747% in Nigeria, as that's the percent increase it would take to surpass Mexico's 17,889. Until IIM releases figures, I'm not believing it. In no way am I minimizing kidnapping in Nigeria though. It is terrible, but we're not number one. 1 Like |

Okay, away from this. You know we hardly report crime cases in Nigeria. when you do plus and minus, you would realize our figures should be much more bigger than what is reported ( my opinion). ogugua88: This is from 2009: |
