Japanese police are running out of crimes to deal with. According to local sources, there was just one fatal shooting in Japan in the whole of 2015. But while Japanese police are running out of crimes to fight, Nigerian Police have been overrun with myriads of criminal activities such as kidnapping and armed robbery.

No wonder the arrest On 11 June 2017 of Nigeria’s most notorious kidnapper Evans by the Intelligence Response Team of the Nigerian police was celebrated with trophy selfies splattered all over social media, an action that was heavily criticised by superstar nollywood actress Kate Henshaw, lambasting Nigerian police as unprofessional.

But the Japanese police have one thing in common with their Nigerian counterpart: they are oddly inefficient. Even though there are so many officers and so few crimes, they solve less than 30% of them. Confessions, often made under duress, form the basis of most criminal prosecutions. The courts dismissed the case of the beer thief in Kagoshima, despite all the work that went into it. “Japan is almost crime-free not thanks to the police,” says Yoshihiro Yasuda, a campaigning lawyer, to The Economist “but because people police themselves.”

It's very simply, the more productive engagements people are occupied with, the less involvement in crime

Japanese are seriously engaged na. No time for crime except their tech.
