You have shown the level of your intelligence by comparing gun violence in United States and total breakdown of security in Nigeria. Your education investment is a monumental waste.

More people die in the USA every year due to gun violence and they spend multiple fold on defence and internal security. Yet nobody is blackmailing their country with the numbers.

2020 was the deadliest gun violence year in decades. So far, 2021 is worse. Gun-related deaths from preventable, intentional, and undetermined causes totaled 39,707 in 2019, nearly flat from 39,740 deaths in 2018.

The shootings have come at a relentless pace. Gun violence this year has cut through celebrations and funerals, places of work and houses of worship. It has taken lives at a grocery store and in a fast-food drive-through lane.

And most of all, it has unfolded on city streets and in family homes, away from the cameras and far from the national spotlight.

By almost every measure, 2021 has already been a terrible year for gun violence. Many fear it will get worse. Last weekend alone, more than 120 people died in shootings, according to the Gun Violence Archive, with three especially dangerous incidents in Austin, Chicago and Savannah, Ga., leaving two dead and at least 30 injured.


Through the first five months of 2021, gunfire killed more than 8,100 people in the United States, about 54 lives lost per day, according to a Washington Post analysis of data from the Gun Violence Archive, a nonprofit research organization. That’s 14 more deaths per day than the average toll during the same period of the previous six years.

You failed to see the reason for making the comparison. What we are saying is that despite the large number of casualties due to gun violence in the USA, US citizens are not using the staggering number to blackmail their country. With all the US resources, they still have these huge number, not to talk of a country like Nigeria with similar Presidential system but smaller revenue to fight insecurity.
Aside the attempts to blackmail the country, any unbiased person will admit that security situation has improved since 2014 when bombs used to go up in Abuja and other places. When people cannot freely go to church because of suicide bombers. When many local govt were directly under the control of Boko Haram, over 6,000 killed in a year and millions turned to IDP's.
After many years of neglect, Nigeria is currently investing in security and other critical, physical infrastructure that will improve security.

First of all, who is blackmailing their country? Pointing out the security situation is now blackmailing the country? You just want people to say things are alright when the reality is opposite?
Guy, Nigeria insecurity is worse now than 2014 if you want to tell yourself the truth. Aren't you seeing the carnage that is going on in the middle belt and north?
Bombs not going off in Abuja does not tell the story. It is possible that boko haram decided to change strategy. Ask yourself if boko haram wants to bomb anywhere, what will stop them? Which one is more difficult? Kidnapping hundreds of school children at once or sneaking and detonating bombs around.
Let us pray that boko and their fulani brothers don't return to bombing strategy cos they can easily do that if they so desire.
Btw, boko haram is still controlling territories in the north.

Buhari is sowing wickedness, he shall surely reap evils, God isn't man.

Security situation is definitely better than 2014. Kidnapping of Chibok girls readily
comes to mind and it takes this administration to recover some of the girls where the previous admin could not do much. I dont share your views. Whoever is using insecurity news to define their country is definitely blackmailing the country hence the comparison to USA. Nobody defines USA situation with the huge number of gun violence. I dont expect you to agree with me and neither should you expect me to share yours. We have large numbers of people that share either views.

michoim:
Nonsense. Terrorists activists all over the world are known to increase exponentially with time, if not for the massive and prudent defence spending it might have been 1 million people dead by now.
Afghanistan is a good example. Americans pulled out and in just 2 days 2 regional headquarters have been captured by the Talibans...

You are talking nonsense.

There are Countries in the world that have defeated terrorism on their home soil.

Totally defeated it.

Nigeria is not governed by leaders with the mental capacity to deliver victory.

Another nonsense.

The US is a peculiar case due to its stubborn insistence on gun rights.

Even then the case in Nigeria is far more dire.

90% of the world don't have the death rates that Nigeria-has.

Just look at Ghana here and our other west African neighbours.

More people die in Nigeria per week than in our neighbors per year.

You are a clown.

Bros, while I don't want unnecessary argument, I must not fail to show my amusement on your assertions.

You brought up Chibok girls, then the question to you is how many more chibok girls style abductions have happened since 2015? Oh! Probably in your mind, those school kids abductions never happened or the kidnappers are playing with the children.

If you cannot fear man, make una fear God oooo. These are people's children and families oooo.

I knew you will bring up other kidnapping that happened recently. The difference you failed to see is that, unlike 2015, most of those kidnappings were either foiled or the kidnapped people are retrieved . Also, the motive behind recent kidnappings is not terrorism but rather for financial gain and the kidnappers are mostly bandits which is different from terrorism activities of Boko Haram. I am also not interested in wasting my time on unnecessary argument but just wanted to put things in the right perspective especially for others who might be interested in the truth and not political wailing or emotional blackmail.

Buhari is fighting corruption
He’s a great leader
He’s really changed Nigeria for the better
We love him
And he will rule is 2023
I fact let him keep on ruling till his last breath on earth
Nigeria deserves a good leader as buhari
For those that voted him this second term,,, hope say you dey feel the change
Change change change
Naija don better lmao �

My friend, insecurity is insecurity whether kidnapping for profit or for terror. Maybe your sister or mother should be kidnapped by bandits since they mean nothing to you.

You see how stupid some of you are. In a bid to defend the indefensible, you ended up making an exception to banditry and indirectly defending them. Shame on you.
Btw, I won't reply you again. I'm done with you.

Idiot, I knew some of you will say nonsense like this. When we told you that more died in the USA due to gun violence, you came back saying that they have a culture of gun violence. Now you dolt is saying insecurity is insecurity yen, yen yen. Your sister , uncle , Auntie and yourself will be kidnapped not mine. Emotional wreck. Bloody blackmailer.
