lawkenoz: Get your head out of your arse bro. I understand maiduguri is a war zone right now and it is expected to be unsafe but does that paint the same picture for the entire Nigeria? The answer to this is no. There are 35 other states which are regarded safe so why do you refer me to only maiduguri? Is Nigeria Maiduguri alone? Texas is about two thirds the size of the entire Nigeria and is not a safe state due to mass shooters as well. So i am in a better position to tell you what is what. I am planning to return home to my Delta state or stay in Abuja. You think we have got it good here? Wake up bro. 3 Likes 1 Share |

linearity: You do realize that there have been more than 342,439 people who died from gun violence in the United States from 2008 through 2017 alone right?, meaning that a person is killed with a gun in this country every 15 minutes. Does this figure look like a party to you? My zip code is 39110 go ahead and pull up the stats for this entire year and then apologize to me after you are done. 2 Likes |

CaptainMeks:/ You do understand that it is all about economy. No matter the level of travel warnings, Nigerians will still give Thanksgiving on being issued American visa. Who pass you pass you. Do you know there are countries that are visa exempt to US and other developed nations? Look closer and you will know why. Wanna be indifferent to US? Grow your economy! Until then, enjoy your fantasy. You are trying to negotiate from a position of weakness. \ 1 Like |

For those who care to know the truth. This is stats from 2010 when it was not even this bad. Read it and know the truth people. Don't believe all the hype you watch in movies or read in the media about this country. U.S. Statistics on Gun Deaths & Injuries 1. In 2010, guns took the lives of 31,076 Americans in homicides, suicides and unintentional shootings. This is the equivalent of more than 85 deaths each day and more than three deaths each hour. 2. 73,505 Americans were treated in hospital emergency departments for non-fatal gunshot wounds in 2010. 3. Firearms were the third-leading cause of injury-related deaths nationwide in 2010, following poisoning and motor vehicle accidents. 4. Between 1955 and 1975, the Vietnam War killed over 58,000 American soldiers – less than the number of civilians killed with guns in the U.S. in an average two-year period. 5. In the first seven years of the U.S.-Iraq War, over 4,400 American soldiers were killed. Almost as many civilians are killed with guns in the U.S., however, every seven weeks. 6. An average of eight children and teens under the age of 20 are killed by guns every day. 7. American children die by guns 11 times as often as children in other high-income countries. 8. Youth (ages 0 to 19) in the most rural U.S. counties are as likely to die from a gunshot as those living in the most urban counties. Rural children die of more gun suicides and unintentional shooting deaths. Urban children die more often of gun homicides. 9. Firearm homicide is the second-leading cause of death (after motor vehicle accidents) https://npalliance.org/from-our-allies-facts-about-gun-violence/ 2 Likes 1 Share |

Chinkobanana: And there he goes, throwing insults. Mr head not in arse, don't get emotional over trivial issues. If USA is not safe for you return back to Nigeria, no one is holding you back. That people don't tell of insecurity issues in other states of nigeria doesnt mean that they are safe. Comparing safety of Nigeria to the united states is just plain silly. You may not have it good there but you have it better than people in Nigeria, you can argue all you want at least you agreed maiduguri is a war zone, I'm sure chicago is also a war zone right? 1 Like |

lawkenoz: I did not insult you bro. I simply said get your head out of your arse. A simple expression. Why are you guys so testy over the most ridiculous of things? Well until you begin to really tell about insecurity in other states do not try to pass off an assumption as fact when you have nothing to back it up with except maiduguri which is just one out of 36 states. I have shown you facts while all you have are assumptions bro. That is not right so i stand true when i say you are wrong and remain so 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Chinkobanana: Bros, Again am not disputing your figures; all I am saying is that, it is wrong to use that raw figure as indicative of the whole of America vi-sa-vi Nigeria, without indexing it with the total population of each country. I will take it from you that, 342,439 died from gun violence in the US from 2008 to 2017; index that with the fact that; there are more than 300 million people living in America, that comes to about 0.001% over the 10 years period you have quoted. Yes, a single murder is one too much, and if you are closer to the murder, you tend to fill it more and more likely to exaggerate it, because emotions are involved....but, if you step back a bit, remove emotions from the equation, the truth is a murder rate of 0.001% is truly phenomenal, given that there are about 1.5 guns within the America civilian population to 1 person. From your zip code, you live in Madison MS in the South; surprisedly Madison is the top safest city in Mississippi.....are you sure you live in Madison MS or you must agreed that, you were just exaggerating? These are Madison, MS crime stats...nothing close to the gloom and doom scenarios you painted in your previous post....the irony lost here is, do you know how many people willing commit 'murder' for a chance to live in Madison, MS?
