The reason I don't believe these so-called news is because they are void of facts. How can Baghdad, Juba, Tegucigalpa, San Salvador, Mosul and other murder stricken cities be better than Lagos?

That's how one nonsense published that Nigeria has superceded India in poverty (!?) It just doesn't make sense, Indians are well over a billion(1.3 billion) and 60% of these population don't have access to toilets which is around 780 million people. So if 780 million people don't have a basic structure as a toilet, how on earth does Nigeria a country of 200 million people have more living in poverty? angry

Seriously, I smell a big conspiracy.

Anyways, Baba Buhari till 2023

Dude, you need to buy a world map and use it as a wallpaper in your room.

It has been so for like 10 years now. Lagos and Abuja not among the top 10 cities to live in Africa.

Immediately I think of Tripoli Libya, Damascus, Lebanon, Bagdad and other cities in Afghanistan, I know this is rubbish.

They go to peaceful cities, destroy them, create chaos to drive the people into desert and sea, then call them unlivable.

Maybe if they stop their economic sabotage the world would be a better place.

Imagine imposing sanctions on African countries for banning their used clothes.

I'm not surprised cuz the last time I visited Nigeria, I was taken aback as to how an unkempt city like Lagos seem to be the Silicon Valley of the unorganized nation

Honestly, If I was Bill Gate, the only business I will have with Nigerians is to buy their country. Use it for stock trade in America big firms and allow Top Tech companies to buy a share of it. What I'm saying is that in the realm of my imagination, your country is sold-off already. I even heard that your PVC is now on large Chinese online store like Alibaba. You guys should just calm down and chill. Gradually, we're getting there as your country will soon be on Amazon and the poorest man in America will add it to cart. Meanwhile, the last time I checked, most underdeveloped countries don't exceed $17 million when put up for sale online. If I'm lucky to be the buyer as an American, it'll be nice having a country dominated with primitive minds and black mentality and refurbishing it after all.

I don't think there's a conspiracy. Yes, they're probably wrong about Nigeria having more poor people than India, but as for Lagos, security is not the only criterion used. For example, apart from Juba, the cities you mentioned have fairly stable electricity. There are other issues like access to water, roads, ease of doing business, etc.

The Brookings Institute Report said that Nigeria had overtaken India in EXTREME poverty, not poverty in general terms.

The places you mentioned like Baghdad, Juba, Tegucigalpa, San Salvador, Mosul ( I would also add Damascus, Kinshasa and Bangui) all fall within the metrics used to designate undesirable places to live in, but they are not ranked at all simply because they are literally uninhabitable. They are war zones. The rankings looked at cities that can be lived in and rated them from best to worst in terms of infrastructure, poor security , poor health facilities etc.

When viewed in that light, it's no surprise that Lagos has such a low ranking.

yea, that's very true.

Taking a bath early in the morning, dressing up for work only to inhale carbon monoxide from other vehicles through the window.

Now she finally succeeded and made it to work,only for her boss to give her piles of document to scale through and work on.


wow!! she was given 15 mins break and she didn't enjoy her breakfast. just 15 mins, food dint even digest and she is back to work.


Eventually is is done for the day, and off on her way home, she struggles to enter a bus while on motion,YES!! she made it and starts inhaling fumes from vehicles, oh no that trailer just accelerated what a fume. she breaths it and feels grin relaxed.

Conductor : oshodi!!!
o waaaa, she said and alighted down.


she looks up for aeroplane, looks right and left for for coming vehicles, she looks back for boko haram / pickpocket, then she crosses zigzag to avoid stray bullet.



she enters her street and here she is at the gate only to discover NEPA had disconnected her light.

oh noo what a crazy day.

The next day the whole process repeat itself.


LAGOS! LAGOS!! LAGOS!!!

Bros you know there is something called Percentage.
If you do that your calculation in percentage of population, I am sure you will get the answer right.

U are quite unintelligent.. This is one of the biggest problems facing nigeria.. Low IQ.

Bro, in research study, there is what is called sampling data. Because research can't give u the grace to sample everything, u are allowed to pick few parts of ur study and conclude ur research..

In this case, Lagos was chosen for reason being that it is the most popular city state in nigeria..

So forget ur onitsha, what that means is that if Lagos is this bad, other areas might be worse. In general, nigeria is least liveable country in nigeria.
