Lagos Ranked Second Worst Liveable City In The World by ObidientFC: 10:48pm On Jun 23, 2022
A global business intelligence, Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) has said Lagos, the Nigeria’s commercial capital city is the world’s second least liveable urban area.

EIU ranked Lagos 171 out of 172 countries in the list of most liveable cities in the world for the first quarter of 2022, according to the latest 2022 Global Liveability Index.

This report makes the Nigerian best city the worst in Africa as Damascus (Syria) and Tripoli (Libya) continue to anguish at the bottom of the list along with Lagos (Nigeria) as they face social unrest, terrorism and conflict.

The least liveable cities were Damascus in Syria, Lagos in Nigeria, Tripoli in Libya, Algiers in Algeria and Karachi in Pakistan, which scored 30.7, 32.2, 34.2, 37.0 and 37.5 respectively.

“The EIU further highlighted the top five most liveable cities in the world which are Vienna, Austria scoring 99. 1; Copenhagen, Denmark with 98.0; Zurich, Switzerland with 96.3; Calgary, Canada had 96.3 and Vancouver, Canada with 96.1

However, most of the cities in the bottom ten have improved their scores compared with last year, as COVID-19 pandemic induced pressures,” EIU stated.

The EIU, which is a sister organization to The Economist, ranked 173 cities around the world on a variety of factors, including health care, crime rates, political stability, infrastructure and access to green space.
The EIU examines the quality of health care, education, infrastructure, stability, and culture when assessing living conditions of each city.
More than 30 factors are taken into account when calculating each rank, which are then compiled into a weighted score between one and 100.

From the indicators used for the ranking index which was stability, healthcare, culture & environment, education and infrastructure, Lagos scored 20.0, 20.8, 44.9, 25.0 and 46.4 respectively which dragged its score to 32.2 from a total of 100.

Electricity most likely undermines Lagos and other cities in Nigeria significantly. This unfortunately impacts other factors including standard of living and quality of life. Things like infrastructure, healthcare and other parameters would be significantly impacted too.

This same Lagos is the small London in Nigeria, having the best outlook in terms of security- bad as it is.

Speechless…

Isn't this the state tinubu governed, the paradise on earth abi my eye Dy pain me.
I thought Lagos was better than USA Dubai Canada etc. It is the paradise of afonjas, the state every white man needs to come and learn from. Every idiot from remote villages in ekiti, osun etc wants to come and claim lagos. grin

Lagos is a mega city but when you place it side by side with other megacities around the world, you will weep upon all the money and project the federal government dump into the state every minute.

Na either my state or outside. No other state is
worth it .

cool cool cool cool I was telling one tout the other day that if not for curruption that Lagos can be turned to a mega city like dubai, and not with what they think Tinubu did because I didn't see what he did that no average currupt person can't do if elected.

Parameters used for ranking are stated: social unrest, terrorism etc. , the ranking of Lagos is because of Nigeria unrest, but actually it is not Lagos that is really facing social unrest but effect of east and north. Rating Lagos known as least from Nigeria means other states from Nigeria in the east and north are worse off and deserve no mention. Hope there is no Ipob/esn member working as staff within the EIU because they can influence data because of election?

Why do you think five most liveable cities in the world are all Christians dominated countries ? It is confirmation that Christian remains the most peaceful religion on planet Earth despite being most populous religion in the world and because that religion is minority in those states, otherwise, they won't be ranked most leviable be now.

Similar factor might have influenced ranking for Lagos which everybody in Nigeria can confidently vote as the least crime prone city in Nigeria. It is hard for someone to get away with crime in Lagos without being aprended despite it is six-times many other states in term of population in Nigeria

An unfortunate truism.....Lagos must be saved from the mad influx of migrants from all corners of the country and those who have no business in the state sent back to where they came from and very importantly agberoism as industry must be abolished in the state.

Fake news by anti Tinubu people. Lagos is the best city in all of Africa, even better than useless cities like London and New York.

Lagos has a better transportation network, better services, more tourist centres and is cleaner than all those other places

All these people spreading fake news so Tinubu does not win the elections.
