Make Northern Nigeria Great Again.

The good old days when they got oil money unchallenged for any problem.

All I can say is that these figures are greatly suppressed

Gombe
Nigeria is proud of you

Satisense will just sit down at one corner and cook up unrealistic statistics.

They will never tell you how they arrived at their figures.

The governors are complicit to this menace, put pressure on the legislative to make kidnapping and terrorism a capital offence punishable by death. Until we do that, we are not going anywhere.

All these statistics don't make sense dey should just try and end the insecurity in the country tighten our borders and stop embezzling money meant for security most importantly

Kidnappings/Terrorism spiked in Nigeria on the month Osama bin laden was killed

So SW has a good representation of kidnapped victims.

So UGM, Amotekun,OPC, Sunday IGBOHO boys, Tinubu disciples are making the SW a region of instability.

This is a sophisticated shame.

About 85% of kidnapping cases in Lagos between 2011 - 2023 were traced to Evans the celebrity kidnapper.

One of the reasons why it seems as if the south east have high rate of kidnapping, is because the Nigeria media houses always over report every single kidnapping case in the east while tactically under reporting kidnapping cases from other regions

Did some of you go to school at all? How can someone sit down and cook up crime figures? If you want to know how they got the figures, you can email them.

The day the Police in one of the SW states killed 7 kidnappers in a single day, Simon Ekpa and Biafrans were crying that they are killing Igbos.

Na so official statistics dey, not every kidnapping is reported.
Unofficial statistics go need dem to add 2 zeros at the end of every stat but 3 zeros to Kaduna, Katsina and Zamfara.

The USA wants to eliminate Terrorists in NIGERIA. Simon Ekpa, Nnamdi Kanu, everyone with commonsense supported the move, na only una region dey shout free PALESTINE for Southern NIGERIA.

Tinubu exposed your region for everyone to see. From now on .

SOUTHERN UNITY is DEAD.

The south East should lead in this department, after all there got evans

Take note: these figures are the ones that re:

1. Recorded
2. Rounded down to the smallest number possible.

Yet south east is helinues seunmsg softmirror yarimo madridguy problem

So IPOB doesn't kidnap people like some people would want us to believe?

I can't believe South East has the lowest.

Who takes statisense serious, same people when already declared APC winners when the elections was still going on with LP at the lead.

True. South East states dominate the bottom 12 in the provided stats

Akwa ibom is the safest state in the south south region..

Smitaro100:

I love Akwa Ibom.

Ebonyi is the safest in the SE. Lagos in the SW.

Yet children of perdition will say East is not safe.




Minus government sponsored insecurities, South East will be more safe

Sarcasm

It's Ebonyi that made SE figures look good o. Na only Ebonyi dey among the safest 12 states.
