Niger Delta, Reip Capital Of Nigeria – Survey by Seempliehuman(m): 7:10am On Jan 04, 2014 |
One in ten women surveyed in Niger Delta was either raped or survived a rape attempt last year in the Niger Delta. More women were raped in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria than any other part of the country last year, a recent crime survey published by CLEEN Foundation has said. The survey, National Crime Victimization and Safety survey, said that one in every 10 women were either raped or victims of attempted rape in the region last year. The Niger Delta region is Nigeria’s crude oil production hub and is recovering from militancy that plagued the region in the years leading up to 2010 when the government declared amnesty for armed youths in the region. The incidence of rape in the region was higher than the national average by 100 per cent. The survey showed that the national average of victims was five per cent – one in every 20 women surveyed. The survey also shows that the national incidence of rape almost doubled from three per cent in 2011 to five per cent in 2013. “The incidence of rape has been on the increase from 3 per cent in 2011 to 5 percent 2013 within its geopolitical zones,’’ the report said With 10 per cent incident of rape or attempted rape, the South South region could be described as the rape capital of Nigeria followed by the North East – 6 per cent. The South West region and North West region had rape incidence rate of one in every 25 women – four percent each. The North Central followed with three per cent – one in every 33 women polled. The South East had the lowest incidence rate of one in every 100 women. Most of the victims – 36 per cent – told CLEEN Foundation they were raped near their homes. Another 19 per cent said they were attacked “at their homes” while 13 per cent said they were attacked in schools or workplace. ‘‘Respondent was further asked how widespread the incidence of rape was. 10 per cent believed it was very widespread, 33 per cent said it happened occasionally, 48 per cent believe it was non existence while nine per cent said they do not know ,’’ the report said.
