The global freight forwarding industry has witnessed a remarkable evolution, growing steadily with an estimated market size of USD 207 billion in 2023 and projected to hit USD 250 billion by 2028 at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 4%. This growth has been largely driven by increasing trade agreements between countries, the rise of automation, real-time data usage, artificial intelligence, and the expanding demand for ocean and air freight. While Europe, North America, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, South America, and Africa all play significant roles in this industry, Africa remains a region with enormous untapped potential – a gap SWISSDARL Freight and Logistics Limited is expertly positioning itself to fill.

The African Development Bank’s investment of over USD 44 billion in infrastructure over the past six years, coupled with the potential impact of the Africa Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) – predicted to boost intra-African freight demand by 28% by 2030 – positions the continent for transformative change.

INTERNATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS DAY 2024: CDHR DEMANDS IMMEDIATE ACTION AGAINST INJUSTICES

DON’T TURN KWARA TO ANOTHER SAMBISA, DOUBLE EFFORTS TO END THE SPATE OF KILLING, KIDNAPPING, AND TERRORISM: CDHR CHARGES THE STATE GOVERNMENT, SECURITY APPARATUS

The residents and indigenes of kwara communities are living in fear and apprehension due to the recent rise in the spate of killing and kidnapping in different parts of Kwara communities. Some few weeks back, it was reported virally that a new bandit group arrived in the state named Mahmouda. To prove the authenticity of the viral news, the group strikes around Baruteen local government, and scores of innocent Nigerians were killed.

Cdhr gathered that
Seven people were killed in attacks on the Kwara community when gunmen suspected to be members of the new terrorist group, Mahmouda, attacked communities in Baruten and Kaiama local government areas. The assailants who reportedly were on military camouflage, riding motorcycles, stormed the market square at 9:30 pm on Monday and opened fire on the residents before they zoomed off.

Among whose lives were lost include four Fulanis, a vigilante, and a 19-year-old youth. According to another source, a similar attack occurred the same day in neighbouring Kaiama, where a vigilante was killed.

In another development, gunmen suspected to be kidnappers abducted seven travellers along the Obbo-Aiyegunle road in Ekiti Local Government Area of Kwara State. Cdhr gathered that the incident occurred over the weekend. The affected victims were travellers and passengers in a Sienna bus coming from FCT to Offa town, kwara state.The gunmen reportedly blocked the road and stopped the vehicle, belonging to an Offa-based transport company with registration number KW FFA 50 XD, at gunpoint. Seven people were kidnapped, leaving the children and their belongings behind.

Recently, the kwara branch of NBA announced the abduction of one of their members by unknown assistants, Barrister Elizabeth Arinde, Head of the Legal Department at Oke Ero Local Government in Kwara State. According to reports, she was abducted alongside the DPM of the Local Government on Friday, April 25, 2025, while travelling from Oke Ero LGA to Ilorin. In the announcement, the kwara NBA chairman SMH Kosemani Esq. appeals to the members of the public to share the information and pray for her safe return.

In line with the above and series of insecurity reports about kwara communities, the Committee for the Defence of Human Rights uses this medium to call the attention of the kwara state government, kwara state police command and other security apparatus in the state to double their efforts to end the insecurity challenges around kwara communities. The government and all the stakeholders should synergise by putting appropriate measures to remove kwara from the news of viral killing, kidnapping, and all forms terrorism. We shouldn’t allow them to turn our dear state to another Sambisa forest.

Kwara State is known for peace and harmony and one of the most peaceful states in the northcentral Nigeria. The government should intensify efforts to maintain the peace and harmony kwarans have been enjoying over the years.

Cdhr also urges the state government to empower the local security operatives with necessary support and intelligence to assist the conventional security apparatus. They understand their local terrain better than the outsiders. A stitch in time saves nine.

E-Signed:
Comrade Idris Afees Olayinka,
National Publicity Secretary CDHR Nigeria.
