Prove it?



You don forget say epileptic power supply is still a problem in Nigeria (including Abuja) or the Aso Rock clinic that lacks basic health needs. You must have forgotten that housing cost is terrible in these two states. Keep in mind that Abuja is competing with states like Accra (goop power supply) and Johannesburg (with intercity trains).


Nigeria is really backward sha... God help us...

Abuja ke? What are these rankers drinking? Even Lagos. Sure there are some bad patches here and there (especially Lagos due to inadequate infrastructure), but for the most part these two cities are very livable and enjoyable.

Written by a white man, what did you expect? The authors are basically saying don't bother going to Africa. Spend your money in the West.

Ppl go just dey talk without reasoning. What makes Lagos and Abuja D two best cities in Nigeria?

Oh! U mean D steady power supply? I forgot that Lagos and Abuja has D best state-owned schools in Nigeria. The cheap housing cost and D good health care system U mean? These two states must have watertight security compared to other states.

Lol, see how stupid you sound.
your small sense didn't direct your brainless brain to see housing, health care, public service and of course crime rate which is also security as the prerogative for which the worse cities have been rated.

I jokingly made a comment which when logically and critically analysed and comprehended isn't far fetched, but because you have itching fingers and 'na you carry 9ja for head pass' has made you reasoned with your ball-less balls.
you should offer yourself sense if there's even space for it.

eediotwink

Chai see a very stupid analysis up here.....I'm sorry to say but is lagos and abuja the only city in nigeria? Maiduguri didnt enter d list even tho they lack health care, public services et al. As a mata of fact lagos and abj are still one of the best in those areas. Are other states beta than d two states in those areas?? U no get analytical sense at all, ur hand is just itchy to reply.

It should be there because the basic amenities that should be present in a "country's capital" are lacking there. The epileptic power supply in Nigeria (Abuja included) and the health care problems (Aso rock clinic for example) are good reasons why it should be on the list.
In fact I was writing that on sentiment, Nigeria as a whole should be there. Useless country..

Guy relax. It's a world ranking. U don't expect a Chinese man reading this to know Maiduguri do U? So, what they did was to pick 2 to 3 popular states from each country including African countries to make D list.
