control_seven: U don't need a crystal ball to confirm our now acclaimed status. I saw it coming! A high number of graduates are unemployed and even a greater number of illiterate youths are roaming the streets. Kidnaping is now the most lucrative and sought-after course in the "university" of criminals. I can't remember the last time my pocket was picked, petty thieves have upgraded to this ivory tower! *Singing which way Nigeria by Sonny Okosun*

360command: This is bullsh*t! Mexico is number 1 , followed by Colombia, and then its Guatamela. In mexico, out of 10 people kidnapped, 7 does not come out the same(human). They either cut a finger or one of the body parts are missing or the victim might face some severe beatings for them to show to their client that they are very serious and can carry out anything upon the victim. This is how it all started for the gangs in the latin regions before they go into the drug business. Its all starts from kidnapping and extortion. I don't believe that article displayed by the OP.

Jakumo: It would be instructive to see data that examines the various categories of kidnapping cartels at work in Nigeria. We know that kidnappers require victims for four broad commercial applications which often overlap.

1. The first end-use of kidnap victims is as unwilling donors of human spare-parts that are traded amongst Nigeria's vast underground network of Juju/Voodoo practitioners.

2. The second category of kidnappers open up their victims to extract vital organs, such as hearts, lungs, kidneys, eye-corneas and bone marrow, that fetch top dollar in the shadowy underworld of fresh-frozen human organs air-freighted globally in beer coolers for medical transplant into living hospital patients on waiting lists.

3. The third category of kidnapper prefers their clients alive and in one physical piece, with the expectation that cash ransoms paid by wealthy relatives would exceed the spare-parts value of such captives. Randsom kidnappers do, on occasion, go ahead and part out their victims for retail human organ sales, even after ransoms have been paid, thus maximizing profit from two income streams.

4. Kidnapping for the sex trade is the fourth and final subsidiary of the Nigerian abduction industry, and, like the kidnapping for ransom trade, requires captives to be kept alive.

Kindappers in the house, please let us hear some of your insider summations about this emergent new enterprise on the Nigerian economic landscape.
