How many of you are stressed out
about something right now? You, you
and you too? Well, it’s no surprise. A
whopping 70.1% of the total Nigerian
population is under stress, making the country the most stressed out in the
world! A new study published by Bloomberg has ranked 74 countries based on the
stressfulness of their living
environments. Titled Most Stressed-
Out: Countries, results reveal life as
toughest in Nigeria, and easiest in
Norway. Estimates are based on the information
from the United Nations Office on
Drugs and Crime, International
Monetary Fund, Central Intelligence
Agency World Factbook, Transparency
International and World Health Organization. Each country is allocated points for
each of the variables based on its
relative position in the specified
category’s rankings. The country that
scores the least stressful measure is
given 0 points, while the country with the highest stress level scores 100. Seven equally weighted variables are
considered to make up the country’s
total score. Each variable is also
allotted an average for a final score
between 0 – 100. The higher the
score, the more stressful the living environment is. For Nigeria, results
reveal the following: · Annual homicide rate is 12.2 per
100 000, relatively high compared to
various other countries whose score is
from 0.3 – 2. · While GDP per capita is $1 676
income inequality stands at 48.8. · Nigeria scored 27 on corruption,
a far cry from Finland and Denmark
that each scored 90. · However, the unemployment rate
is sixth highest at 23.9%. · While many countries’ life
expectancy measure at an average
between 70 – 80 points, Nigeria’s is at
a low of 53.

For some strange reason, Nigerians don't even let the stress affect them.
If an American go through one-third of the stress, he will be diagnosed for plenty conditions and place under medications
