Nigerians rank lowest in UK s3x offender records

Data from the United Kingdom’s Ministry of Justice has revealed that Nigerians are among the least represented nationalities in s3x offence convictions across the country.

The figures, obtained by The Telegraph in March through freedom of information laws, provide a detailed breakdown of s3x crime convictions by nationality between 2021 and 2023.

The records show that foreign nationals were convicted of up to a quarter of s3x crimes, including r@pe, during the three-year period. When adjusted for population size, some nationalities were significantly more likely than British citizens to be convicted of such crimes. Afghans and Eritreans, in particular, were found to be over 20 times more likely to be involved in s3x offence convictions than Britons.

Overall, foreign nationals were 71 percent more likely than British citizens to be convicted of s3x offences. The highest total number of convictions came from Romanians with 987, followed by Poles with 208, Indians with 148, and Pakistanis with 144.

However, conviction rates based on population revealed that Afghans had the highest rate of 59 convictions per 10,000 people; 22.3 times the rate for Britons. Eritreans followed with 59 convictions, translating to 53.6 per 10,000 of their population in the UK.

In contrast, Nigerians were among the nationalities with conviction rates lower than that of British citizens. Other African nationalities that featured more prominently in the statistics included citizens from Congo, Namibia, Somalia, Algeria, Angola, Gambia, Tunisia, and Libya.

The data further showed regional disparities, with North Africans being convicted at a rate 6.6 times higher than Britons, Middle Easterners at 3.8 times, and Sub-Saharan Africans at 2.6 times the British rate.

The figures have prompted debate within British policy circles, with some think tanks attributing high rates of r@pe, violence, robbery, fraud, and drug offences to mass migration patterns.
