Nigeria is four position deeper in the list of countries perceived as failed state.  According to Wikipedia, a failed state is defined as:

' A failed state has several attributes. Common indicators include a state whose central government is so weak or ineffective that it has little practical control over much of its territory; non-provision of public services; widespread corruption and criminality; refugees and involuntary movement of populations; sharp economic decline.ates'

This is sad, Malawi better than Nigeria?

This video should have been a good analysis of the Nigerian state except for its tribalistic undertones.

[b]The terror list bias against Nigeria should inform Nigerians by now to disregard such list. It was obvious before that the West act as one and use stereotypes and misinformation to segregate and control nations. They act like class bullies who form the IT group and use membership of the IT group to control and subjugate all others not in the group. If you displease the IT group then you go in their Vendetta / Ostracisation book and every other person suports them in order to be accepted or keep away from you in the hope that they do not enter the IT group's vendeta book.

These lists are implements of control and mean nothing in real terms. Besides, as I began, after their lies about our terror status it would be silly to trust whatever the West states. They are dishonest. That list is no more valid than any list that you or I create. For instance, my list of duplicitous countries that also actively destabilise nations and indirectly contribute to mass deaths and starvation in Africa, has America in top ten position.

Let me get this straight. A privately owned American company called ''Fund for peace'' - Not the UN, Not the WHO, or any official international body, but a private US company - draws up a list of nations it considers to be ''failed states'', and someone posts it here as if God Himself wrote the list?

Tell me, how many Americans will give a minute's notice to a similar document emanating from a private company in Nigeria with regard to the US?
