The Deputy Force Public Relations Officer of the Nigeria Police Force, Frank Mba on Monday said that Lagos is the safest city in Nigeria and one of the safest in Africa.

While speaking about the security situation in the the state on Channels Television’s breakfast show Sunrise Daily, Mr. Mba said that Lagos has been a very peaceful place in light of the dense population.

He argued that the Lagos State Police Command has been doing a good job inspite of the recent increase in reported cases of kidnapping, stating that it is the new crime being exploredby criminals.
Mba mentioned kidnapping as a new challenge which the Police is ready to wipe out. “We have already developeda very strong standard operational procedure that is commencing this week and we are going to lock up the entry and exit point in this city”.

Lagos state is the smallest state in Nigeria, with an area of 356,861 hectares of which 75,755 hectares are wetlands, with a population of 17.5 million people (2006 National Census).
The state is also regarded as the commercial capital of Nigeria.

The same lagos where robbers serve residents notice.dude must be high on cheap ish ...

Ok, but then I prefer Aba as the safest town N.I.G.

Looking at the responses so far and responders, what's the common denominator between them all?

Never fails.

Tribalism and pettiness is indeed very synonymous with some people....


smh...

Afam4eva: The same Lagos where thieves rob people in traffic? The same Lagos where people are going missing by the day. We get a lot of messages about people who left their houses but never returned. Oga Frank, talk better thing abeg.

Thanks to our industrious ibo brothers, it was never like that before they moved in their millions to the peaceful Lagos city

guy you are so fucking disgusting with your tribalism issues. I mean when has the Nigerian Police become a credible source of information? So people are no longer allowed to have a different opinion to yours? Why must you bring tribalism into this thread? You disgust me*spits*

there are two main characteristics of an urban settlement/city; slum and petty crime. Lagos is an urban city . Crime and slum should naturally come with Urbanization.. Same as other Cities in the world like Tokyo and New York equally have slums and relative high rate of crime unless you are telling me that the crimes perpetuated in NY , Tokyo etc are done by the igbos too. I hope you learnt something new today other than screaming 'ibos' from thread to thread.

it's so annoying and disappointing that you had to bring tribalism to this thread. Those who commented before you live in Lagos. Anyone who lives in Lagos knows very well that it is not the safest place in Nigeria. If you think am gonna agree with Frank Mba then i must be nuts! Lagos is safe to me but definitely not the safest!



Frank Mba should live in other parts of the country before spewing trash!

Base on his responsibility, he had just said what is expected of him as the police assistant public relation officer.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahshshshshshshhhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

He knows exactly what he's talking about?

Says who

I heard that frank mbah is sunday mbah's son. Dont know if it is true though...

Is he speaking in paradox?

We have already developed a very strong standard operational procedure that is commencing this week and we are going to lock up the entry and exit point in this city”.

Lie, Lie. He should lock up his brain at entry and exit point too, to save us his banal niggerology. He must have worked as the Asst. Media Disinformation Minister to Saddam Hussein.

If Lagos is safe, then Maiduguri is positively serene.
