Records from the Beacon Security Incident database indicated 466 security incidents, 433 fatalities, and 253 abductions across 62 local government areas in the North-East part of Nigeria.

“The conflict between the two non-state actors, Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) and Jama’atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda’awati wal Jihad (JAS) contributed to the increased number
of fatalities recorded in the North-East region,” the report added.

The managing director, Beacon Consulting Limited, Dr. Kabir Adamu, speaking on the report, highlighted the drivers of insecurity in Nigeria and the need to use a result-based framework and the tools Beacon Consulting’s security risk management capabilities allow for improving individual, corporate, and national security.
