Unveiling Nigeria Risk Index

Insights

In an era where security challenges have become increasingly complex and multifaceted, the need for comprehensive, data-driven solutions has never been more critical. Nigeria Risk Index (NRI) is a data analytics security platform that was developed in response to the growing security challenges in Nigeria. The portal was conceived with a singular vision: to leverage the power of data analytics to enhance security decision-making. Nigeria, a country with vast economic potential, has been plagued by various security issues, ranging from insurgency and banditry in the North to piracy in the Gulf of Guinea, and urban crime in its sprawling cities. NRI's mission is to therefore provide actionable intelligence that can help mitigate these risks. 

The platform was harnessed with the knowledge of top security experts in Nigeria, including Mr. Olufemi Ajayi, an award-winning retired officer of the State Security Service (SSS) and former Corporate Security Manager of Guaranty Trust Bank (GTB). NRI offers unparalleled insights into the security landscape of Africa's most populous nation with a 6-year daily updated mass of security related data, which gives a solid basis for insights and trends.

Below are the top features of the platform:

Location Intelligence

From the Home Page of the platform, you can select any state by using the search filter or by picking the state in the appropriate region on the page to get information about a state. The Location Intelligence tells you more about a state, including the state overview, geographic and demographic summary, real-life emergency contact, the current state risk level, as well as the month-on-month security report. 

Risk & Crime Databases

The Risk & Crime Databases use a unique algorithm to determine the risk and crime index for each state in Nigeria. The algorithm analyzes incidents, victims, and casualties to create a clear risk and crime index for each state.

Interactive Map

With the Interactive Map, you can visualize security trends across Nigeria. See the spread of security incidents in Nigeria and how security situations evolve over time and identify areas of concern.

Data Analytics & Comparative

The Data Analytics & Comparative page enables users to filter thousands of data and analyze security data obtained from the search results. Some of the search filters include Time, Location, Risk Factor, Risk Indicator, Attack Group, Casualties and more. Need to compare states across different risk factors or risk indicators? No problem. The Data Analytics page allows you to make numerous comparatives and perform trend analysis. This feature is best for organizations with physical presence in multiple states or locations across Nigeria that need guided security information.

Business Risk Insights

The NRI Business Risk Insights feature dives deep into risk categories critical for businesses operating in Nigeria. This includes political and social stability, security threats, economic considerations, and regulatory compliance. We evaluate each state against key risk indicators and present an easy-to-understand risk score. This method, supplemented by expert adjustments, allows you to capture a comprehensive risk profile that's both easy to understand and grounded in qualitative data, empowering you to make strategic decisions.
