The United Nations Development Programme has named South-East Nigeria as the most human security secure geopolitical zone in Nigeria.

This is contained in the National Human Development Report for Nigeria, 2016.



The report adds that Abuja, which is the Federal Capital Territory, is the safest city to live in Nigeria as it ranks low in the Human Security Index

The UNDP defined Human Security as safety from chronic threats such as hunger, disease and repression as well as protection from sudden and harmful disruptions in patterns of daily life whether in homes, jobs or communities.

The Economic Adviser, UNDP Nigeria, Mr. Ojijo Odhiambo, said at the launching of the report in Abuja on Friday that the North-East and the North-West remain the most affected areas in Nigeria

The report adds, “The report further highlights the existing gap in human security across the geopolitical zones of the country; – the most human security secure geopolitical zone is the South-East while the North-West and the North-East geopolitical zones are the least human security secured, with residents of the Federal Capital Territory being the worst in most realms of the Human Security Index.

“The North-East region of the country has been the most affected by the more than five-yearlong military insurgency. It also remains among the least developed parts of the country.”

Great!

Wait

Lie Lie

sure one of the safe place in Nigeria.

Why wouldn't it be the safest place when half of the people from there are in lagos causing over population.no quote me o!

And in another news someone said Onitsha is the most air polluted place on earth and I wonder which Onitsha? The one in Anambra state or there is another Onitsha in world map?

Anyway, it shows that southeast has grown in both human capital development and infrastructural development.

The gap between the rich and the poor in southeast is very minute cos of their independent mindset and hustling spirit.

Someone will quote me that they are into 419 but guess what,EFCC rates a particular state in Southwest as the state with the highest number of internet scammers.

Igbo people are the future of the great Nigeria we all pray for.

God bless Ndigbo who are now doing everything to ensure their people are salvaged from political masterminded poverty.

Invest in southeast and you will never regret doing so.

Lies south East is among the most dangerous places to live in Nigeria. The land is infested with murderer's, thieves, kidnappers and rapists

This might be true.

Lalasticlala how market ?
