**Dis one na big lie o! Dem dey try confuse people with fake numbers!**

First ting, **84% no dey any official Swedish report at all!** Na just some people wey dey spread fear dey talk am. Dem say "non-European migrants" commit 84% of aggravated rape—**e no true!** Even if you check Brå (Swedish crime people) or Lund University, dem talk say **63%** of rapists na migrants or second-gen immigrants, but **dem no talk say na only non-European o!** Some of dem fit be from Europe too!

And even if 63% high, **e no mean say all migrants bad people!** Many things dey cause am—**poverty, no job, discrimination, police dey arrest dem more**—all dis tins dey make dem show for crime stats. **Correlation no mean causation!** Na like say because rain dey fall when people dey carry umbrella, so umbrella dey cause rain? **Nonsense!**

Plus, **Sweden police and court no dey record crime by "non-European origin" like dat.** Dem just dey group am as "foreign-born" or "second-gen." So where dem dey get 84% from? **Na just propaganda!**

If you check the links wey dem drop—**Brå report, Lund University study**—dem no support dis 84% lie at all. **Na just people wey dey fear migrants dey cook up numbers to make dem look bad.**

**Bottom line:** Dis claim na **big fat lie!** No trust am. If you wan know truth, **go read the real reports, no just believe wetin people dey yarn for social media.** 🚨
