Introduction: The first tranche of this series titled ‘’Security Risk Analysis: Kidnapping Hotbeds
in Nigeria (1)’’, summed up data
on reported kidnapping incidents and hotspots across Nigeria. Granted there are
one-off incidents, but research indicates that many kidnapping incidents reoccur
within some geographical swathes, along major highways in Nigeria. The
kidnapping almost always entails an ambush usually at bad portions of the road and usually take place
early in the morning or evenings.
