Bad news for Nigeria as the US News. Best Countries Ranking marks Nigeria as the most corrupt country for 2016.

“The 2016 Best Countries report and rankings are based on how global perceptions define countries in terms of a number of qualitative characteristics, impressions that have the potential to drive trade, travel and investment and directly affect national economies,” the US News website reveals.

Sixty countries were measured in the inaugural report and and Nigeria was number 1 in the corruption ranking index. The West African country, widely regarded as the ‘Giant of Africa’, scored a perfect 10 in corruption. Nigeria’s overall rank was 57 on the index.

The U.S. News Best Countries Ranking which measures global performance on a variety of metrics is conducted in partnership with partnership with BAV, a global consulting firm and The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.

Germany, Canada, and the United Kingdom topped the overall list of best countries in the world, in that order. The United States and Sweden were ranked 4th and 5th in the respected global index.

See the full ranking HERE which was released in January 2016.

What did we expect.
Thanks to Bubu who said Abacha never stole any money.
You can fool Nigerians but you can't fool the international community.

ok

Chai. See rating even after junketting the globe screaming corruption. Anyway, buhari has been effectively demarketing nigeria telling the world the 2nd name of nigeria is corruption. What a president!

Hahahahahahhaha lalasticlala lets go there.
any body wey believe say buari dullard dey fight corruption dey live in stone age. fighting political enemies n over looking electoral bribery commited by APC candidat in rivers state is political witch hunt.

all thanks to fortunato! GEJ

What do u expect when a whole president of a country will travel out and the only speech he must give is that his country men are criminals, corrupt, etc now Nigeria is officially awarded no. 1 position. Just like a president nailing his coffin.

Am not surprised.....even Angels in Heavens knows that Nigeria is number one when it comes to corruption.
God have mercy on Nigeria!

Haha the US can see through pretense

I regret voting for apc. It was a mistake i made.

They were obviously ranking 2015 and all the corruption that happened under GEJ

Op you must be crazy to place this crappy, stupi.d report on such a pedestal as to claim it constitutes ''bad news" for Nigeria. Who the hell are "US News", and why should we take them seriously? Because they have "US" in their name? The Only study recognised globally for corruption studies is Transparency International's corruption index, and even that one has many dissenters of its methodologies. So kindly take your quack report from God knows where and stick it up your asss. And why did the list stop at no. 60? Are there not over 196 countries on earth? But it had to stop at no. 60 with Nigeria? Quack report by fraudulent idiots with an agenda. You people need to use your brains and not just accept any nonsense from the west as the word of God.

The next ranking would be light years ahead of the number one spot. The round tripping saga has broken all known corruption heist since abacha days.

Oh Nigeria my beloved country, I Hail thee.

What do you expect?
PMB has shamed all what he stands for.
Nigeria isn't meant to make the list at all, if PMB had stood for what we used to know him for.
But the same impunity still persists.
CBN recruitment scam is the pinnacle.It happened during Jonathan, must it happen during Buhari.
Where is the hope for common man?

Genius100:

Almost 3/4 of 2015 was ran by PMB, so what are u saying?

Oga Lie Moh'd didn't know the official info he releases bout Nigeria will affect d country's image internationally... Well he was so caught up in his blame game to see d damage he's doing... Apc go ahead n bury us... Who knows wht baba dey tell dem as him dey waka about... God rush 2 our rescue o

If it is US, forget it i dont trust them

That budget scandal was enough to send us to that 'enviable' position.

Americans are ipob

If Nigeria is ranked as the most corrupt country it isn't because of the present admin but that of GEJ's were embezzlement was the order of the day. On the part of politicians.

Thanks to our president's campaign and foreign campaign

Buhari is corrupt.

you don't fight corruption with corruption.

GEJ was dia corruption dropped but Daura President it as gone bck 2 it's top spot

all thanks to fortunato! GEJ

Another useless Zombie
Nigeria was never No 1 corrupt country under GEJ

Fake news from trentonline.

Abeg what did they give these people who are still dieing for PMB and his party.

As corrupt as GEJs government was. The few things that seemed to work then is dead now.

No light no Petrol, commodity price is at all time high. CBN has raised interest rate.

FDI under GEJ last year rose to 41% the highest in our history. Today investors are sacking and closing shop.

What have they offered the supporters...I need my own..
It appears they are in another country.

Wen I said it, people were saying rubbish. Na nau corruption start for Nigeria. We av not seen anything. Shebi under GEJ we were 36th. Now we are 57th. And 1st in Africa.

Later they say GEJ was corrupt.

GEJ, Posterity will judge u.


God bless GEJ.
