Following the recent rank of Nigeria as the second most terrorized country in the world, Civil Society Organizations, CSOs, has expressed their opinion, saying it is not surprising, while attributing it to leadership failure.
Recall that last week an acclaimed Global and International Terrorism Research/Analysis group which specializes in collating data on terrorists’ activities worldwide, Jihad Analytics disclosed that Nigeria ranked the second most attacked and terrorized country in the world with only Iraq being the first and Syria ranked third.
According to its half year report, between January and June 2022, Iraq recorded 337 terrorists’ attacks, Nigeria recorded 305 attacks while Syria came third with 142 terrorists’ attacks.
The Convener, Concerned Nigerians, Comrade Deji Adeyanju, speaking with newsmen described the ranking as justification of the obvious.
Adeyanju said that the ranking that Nigeria is second most terrorised nation in the world, shows this is the worst Government the country has ever had since 1960 because even during the Civil War all the geopolitical zones were not taken over by insecurity or any form of war but today every region has been taken over by insurgents, kidnappers, and other criminal gangs.
