Nigeria Joins League of Most Insecure Countries
Militancy, insurgency and banditry in the Niger Delta and Northern Nigeria have placed Nigeria on the map of most insecure regions of the world known for violent crimes such as bombings, manslaughter and kidnapping of innocent people for heavy ransoms.
The menace of the Fulani herdsmen, largely shielded terrorists by the political establishment, in the Middle-Belt and Western Nigeria, has further rubbished the reputation of the country.
