The Nigerians are pretty sophisticated but they are spread throughout Europe not just Italy.

It is not another game , its same game for past 10 years or so. They do what they are allowed to do and pay % for that. If they tried taking over anything both organized crime and police would crush them in less than a year. No one wants foreign organized crime groups running anything.

Its obvious nigerian will never run organized crime in Italy. Lets not be dumb here.
Nigerians are getting stronger every year, and there position in the criminal world is not the same that it was 10 years before. They probably have more power in Italy then ot was in 10 years.
I know most of y’all are fascinated by the mob, and I get it, but the criminal world change in every country.
Italian crime groups will always be number one in Italy, sumply because its Italy. But foreign groups have more power than before in Italy, and we are not only talking about Nigerians.

Thats how it is with the criminal world. In the US, Canada, France, Australia etc

Also.
The news are probably making dumb titles for there newspaper, cuz they know people will talk more about an title about a foreign groups taking over, even if its not true.
Nigerians are just getting stronger and stronger but are not taking over.

Europe is having alot of immigrants, specially from Africa. And Italy are just doing articles showing immigrants in a bad lights. I’m from Canada, and we saw that here also, with jamaicans, haitians, hispanics, somali and in the near future, we will see more articles on middle eastern groups saying they are taking over, in Montreal. And in Toronto, its alot about Somali groups. But its just to sale newspapers.
But in reality, they are just getting stronger and are becoming a factor in the chess game of organized crime.

SMH

yeah that nigerians are stronger than 10 years ago and the strongest among foreign gangs it could be true, but they are not even close to camorra or any other italian organized crime group and its enough to read the latest dia report to know it, the camorra has stroing connections with politicians and public oifficials, police and carabinieri, it infiltrates heavily several economic sectors across italy, the nigerians are basically gangs of pimps and drug dealers at most, more organized than others but that's all

It is totally different thing in US,Canada than in Europe. US and Canada doesn't really have domestic organized crime groups , i mean they do , but at the end they are mostly foreign. Also its totally different thing in Eastern & Western Europe , here in Eastern Europe , organized crime is working for the state and secret service , on the riots we had few weeks ago , there were organized crime members beating up protesters together with the police , they are seen having dinner with president's son and so on. While in Russia , organized crime is literally the state

Those "protesters" should keep their business where it's supposed to be. Most of them act like a bunch of loose cannon snotty kids and they spread like wildfire.

I got no issue with anti-racism protests and marches; I even agree with it. And I'm kinda fed up with these press articles like "Nigerians running rampant in Italy" that are hellbent on painting every immigrant in a bad light. There's a lot of fairly recent immigrants - from Senegal, Ghana, Bangladesh, Nepal, etc... - over here in Belgian "big" cities that are running local businesses. They work, they pay taxes and they actively stimulate the economy. No issue with this at all.

In recent times though there is the tendency that a segment of spoiled (mostly white) brats are feeling bored and think they should go revolution on everyone. Everybody who doesn't align with their views for the complete 100% is labeled a "nazi" or a "fascist", never mind the fact that none of those misguided rascals can even form a proper definition of any of those terms. I'm fed up with them. Myself and more than a few people I know are waiting for them to bring their horseshit to our doorsteps. They're gonna get KO'd faster than they can scream "Viva la revolución".

And don't think only a growing part of the native population are fed up with their crap. I'd LOVE to seem some of those wannabe anarchists go conduct their business at a local area filled with Italian, Turkish, Greek, Moroccan or Albanian businesses. They're gonna wish they would've stayed in their sheltered place playing PS4 games at their parents' home in a nice residential community.

italy is different, the north can be similar to other european countries or usa/canada/australia but the south is another world, organized crime is extremely entrenched

A 31-year-old Nigerian was killed in Castel Volturno (Caserta) with gunshots; a 37-year-old compatriot was injured in the lower limbs.
The Dda of Naples is also interested in the matter. The modalities of the crime would suggest a settling of scores between criminal gangs for the management of drug dealing or prostitution; this is one of the tracks followed by the carabinieri of Mondragone, who are also trying to understand if the crime could have matured in the context of conflicts between Nigerian crime and the Italian clans, or in the African universe itself, with the group of assassins "Hired" to kill the 31-year-old.

Casalesi??

Nigerian crime groups been active in Italy since the late 80s or so and been established networks in that country. What's relative is the influx of more immigrants & their criminal fraternities.

Nope. American OC groups are majority american then the rest is foreign crime groups.

yes probably, in the last few days there have been two other camorra-related murders, although i don't think they are all connected

Italian-American organized crime is still most powerful in the US , u also have Mexicans and so on. American organized crime groups never reached levels like Cosa Nostra did in the east. Things are totally different here in Europe , especially in Italy where organized crime groups control every aspect of crime. Here in Eastern Europe , its mostly state controlled.

I'm only speaking for the U.S not europe. Italian American OC is powerful in their geographic territories not the entire country.

the DDA is investigating the murder, so it was a Casalesi hit 100%

Nigerian mafia: 70 arrests between Turin and Ferrara, among the bosses an afro-beat deejay

New blow to the Nigerian mafia, with two parallel operations between Piedmont and Emilia-Romagna and over seventy custody measures that have dismantled the 'cult', as the criminal groups are called, 'Vikings-Arobaga' in Ferrara and 'Valhalla Marine' in Turin.

The two organizations, according to police investigators, were closely connected, with strong dependence on the parent company in Nigeria and joints in other Italian provinces, in particular in Veneto (Padua, Treviso and Venice) but also in Lombardy. Among the main characteristics of the groups, which led to the accusation of the crime of mafia association for many of the suspects, the marked hierarchies, the pyramid structure, the constraints of subjugation, the ability to intimidate, the obligation of secrecy and to speak in code, the tribal rites of affiliation, the duty to periodically pay sums and the will to prevail over the other brotherhoods of compatriots for the control of the territory.

They controlled and managed the street trade in drugs and the exploitation of prostitution of Nigerian women in various areas.

these guys are becoming strong, i thought they were overrated like the albanians
