I understand the average Nigerian is under pressure to make ends meet but if this was a stats for the US, I'd agree because of the diverse health conditions that's more rampant.

We're stronger than this. All these conditions stated are not peculiar to Nigeria and they don't kill Nigerians as it's painted here.

You did not add other four leading causes of death in Nigeria such as:
1) Boko Haraminitis
2) Policitis accidentaldischarginoma
3) Fulanities herdsmaenemia
4) Hungerlities hungrymenoma sydrome

kraftysprouts:
The 2018 average life expectancy for Nigerians is now 55 years, a global data shows.

According to the latest World Health Organisation data published for 2018 life expectancy in Nigeria, a male given birth to in Nigeria in 2018 is expected to live approximately 54.7 years while a female is expected to live approximately 55.7 years in good health. The data shows Nigeria has a World life expectancy ranking of 178 out of 192 ranked countries.

However, the average life expectancy at birth in Nigeria is 55.2 years, an improvement from the previous figure, 47.

Meanwhile, the released statistical report by Nigerian Bureau of Statistics (NBS) for 2017 has it that females can live for approximately 51 years while males can live for just 47 years.

The report shows that residents in Nigeria are liable to die of sicknesses and diseases, as well as other causes.

Causes of death listed in the report are influenza, pneumonia, tuberculosis, diarrhoeal diseases, stroke, HIV/AIDS, coronary heart disease, liver disease, prostate cancer, diabetes mellitus, maternal conditions, malaria, breast cancer, meningitis, cervical cancer, lung disease and low birth weight.

Other causes include accident, road traffic and birth trauma among others.

A study published last week had said life expectancy in Nigeria can increase to 74.8 years by 2040.

The study, “Forecasting life expectancy, years of life lost, and all-cause and cause-specific mortality for 250 causes of death: reference and alternative scenarios for 2016-40 for 195 countries and territories using data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2016,” was carried out by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME).

IHME is an independent global health research organisation at the University of Washington that provides rigorous and comparable measurement of the world’s most important health problems and evaluates the strategies used to address them.

115 118 133 without birth certificate abi?

Blatant false figures.

Meanwhile a 133 year old woman in ibadan should have children that are 116, 113, 111, 110, 108 years age.


That's how to detect such falsehoods in Nigeria.
Re: Life Expectancy In Nigeria Now 55 Years – WHO by Litmus: 10:51am On Oct 24, 2018
Perhaps it would be more helpful to Nigeria if life expectancy were broken down by states because, I have to tell you, in my sphere of experience in Delta State, people dey live long o. Not that I’m complaining but I’m not aware of elderly folks (50 and upwards) dying from anything save for accidents or excesses like drink, drugs or sex. In fact, one relative lived so long and was so wizened and active when she finally died whispers were that she had been murdered because some found it offensive that she had outlived her children and in danger of outliving the grandchildren. lipsrsealed

You're quite wrong. The average health indices for Nigeria is quite poor. The number of Nigerian children that die of malaria and diarrhoea or women dying as a result of complications in pregnancy is staggering especially compared to a lot of nations.
