If Bitcoin is banned in Nigeria all because kidnappers now requesting it as a means of ransom it might be a loss to Nigerians.

This isn't the first time Bitcoin is been requested as payment for ransom nor Nigeria the first ever country this will or had happened to.

yeah it isnt . there are many negative news before on most countries and bitcoin were always on the subject . that includes most common crimes like hacking , scamming and some are kidnapping . btc's repuation are affected by these bad news but good thing that positive news also appears .

Nigerian government need to solidify their security feat and give confidence to her citizens. The rate at which people are been kidnapped globaly us very alarming.

you said it right . kidnapping is also present on other countries not just on nigeria , thats why thier government cant totally stop it but they can still do something to lessen it like deploying more security and cctv's on most places .
