Nigeria's area boys are recognised internationally that is not too good.
Territory: Lagos, Nigeria
Criminal activities: Drug trafficking, extortion, murder, inciting riots
Number of members: 35,000
Over the past three decades, Nigeria’s Area Boys have gone from young
kids committing crimes of opportunity to a massive if still largely
unorganized street gang responsible for acts of extortion and murder.
Local authorities, who have made a number of failed humanitarian
attempts to eliminate the gang, tie the rising level of violence to a
depressed economy, high unemployment and the increasing prevalence of
drug addiction among the gang’s members.
