OFFICIAL336:
Nigeria’s Northwest and Northeast regions have the highest prevalence of bribery among adults, a new report published on Wednesday indicates.

The report, prepared by Nigeria’s National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) in partnership with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), with a focus on the quality and integrity of public services in the country, shows that the Northwest has 36.2 per cent prevalence rate while the Northeast has 35.2 per cent prevalence rate.

The prevalence of bribery, according to the report, “is calculated as the number of adult Nigerians who had at least one contact with a public official and who paid a bribe to a public official, or were asked for a bribe by a public official, on at least one occasion in the 12 months prior to the survey, as a percentage of all adult Nigerians who had at least one contact with a public official.”

The country’s Southeast region, currently in the throes of a separatist agitation championed by Nnamdi Kanu’s Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has the lowest bribery prevalence rate of 24.2 per cent, which is below the national average prevalence rate of 32.3 per cent.

In between these extremes are the Southsouth, Southwest and Northwest with corruption prevalence rates of 33.8 percent, 32.8 per cent and 29.1 per cent, respectively.

In terms of an average number of times a bribe is paid in each of the regions, Southeast has 4.9, followed by Northwest with 5.2 and Southwest with 5.7 times – all of which are below the national average of 5.8 occurrence rate. A bribe is paid in an average of 6.2 times in the Northeast, while both the Northcentral and the Southsouth have a 6.4 occurrence rate.

However, the report notes that from the “spatial analysis of bribery prevalence across the 36 states of Nigeria, no clear geographical pattern emerges. At the state level, the prevalence of bribery ranges between 13 per cent in Kwara State and 52 per cent in Borno State, indicating that local factors can have a significant impact on interactions between civil servants and the public.”

Subjugation of the female gender is totally bad. They have every reason to generalize the idea that men are trash. I feel pained because the perpetrators of this evil act are the reason why men are being mouthwashed....
Every time rape. If the female gender is been raped it is being tagged unethical but if the male gender is being raped the man is seen as a weakling thereby breeding men that look hard facially buh too weak emotionally..
Nevertheless, violence towards the in any form towards any gender is totally unacceptable.... May the lord grant the families of the berieved fortitude to bear the loss....

Men please stay away from violence towards the opposite gender

I think the bolded is what you should have said instead of awarding the price to a political party.
USA is USA irrespective of political party involved. They have long selfish strategic regional plan for their country. Whatever the plan is, they follow it whether good or bad.

Well as you say, the kid will keep flexing his six packs. Good for him while he still has it. And when the six packs expire, his society will fix him somewhere else. I can allow my children to participate in fashion shows but I can't allow my children to be like that. There's way more talent upstairs for them.

Not sure of what life offers, but trust me he is better off than millions of people and what they're passing through.

Well now it's become awkward
My apologies



Contrary to popular belief it's the other way round.

The masses respond to those that reflect their beliefs and promise them their wants

If their beliefs r mad so will be their leader.

I don't know if I am wrong but France and America are in opposing side.

Whyem15:
Most of us already know that the Europeans and Americans are only pretending to be fighting terrorism in Africa, in fact, since they started building bases to fight these terrorists, terrorists groups have been increasing in Africa. One wonders if they are not using the war against terrorism as excuse to expand their influence in Africa. The more the military bases, the more the number of terror groups and attacks.
Africa is being recolonized and in some places they are using the same old divide and conquer tactics.
UK is financing both sides of the Libyan war.

Seriously bro , tell me u believe what u wrote

nemesis8u:
My question , why are the people from both sides killing each other . Why r they killing each other for the so called mad leaders ?

So it begs the question as to who is really mad - the leaders or the people ?

oga. Majority of Russian military arsenal are very old. Second to USA is China on defense budget. It's not just about the money, it's about the technical know how. China has been stealing techs and developing new ones.

Have you asked yourself why Trump and even his arch enemies the Democratic party to come together against Huawei and anything China. When we speak Huawei, we don't just talk about phones and 5G. Those guys are into defense and weapons development especially when it comes to espionage

In a latest study it is being claimed that Wuhan virus was optimally designed to infect humans .

Now that is interesting

And if that is true other nations will start investing in BW in a big way

And God forbid if these r used in a war , get ready to say goodbye to human population

Nope! Iran is the PROBLEM!! It stems from America's foreign politics in Israel and Palestine. Goan read your history books, or if you're old enough to have a track history of the world's happenings. Iran just has a natural penchant for hatred towards America because of the aforesaid!

Can I shock you, RELIGIOUS biasness plays a key fundamental reasons behind the traditional war between the parties. We all know the truth

Iran will continue to be a dejected blubber because you can't subvert the truth
