I might also add that its really really bad to have your top cities on the list. Personally i thought Abuja was different but I guess numbers don’t lie

lt depends on their ranking criteria, electricity and maybe pipeborne water as some key determinants.
l don't take these statistics seriously, because some of those who do the ranking do very little research from what l see on their explanation for such rankings. For example, the last time Lagos was ranked 3rd worst city to live in the world, BokoHaram was given as an example of a major insecurity problem in Lagos.
Also even friends from Nigeria who have been to Mumbai for instance, do not rate the Indian city, and would say they prefer Nigeria, but tell me do you see Mumbai on this list of the worst 20?

Two Nigerian cities has been named among the world’s worst cities to live in 2018.

Mercer’s 20th annual Quality of Living survey compared 231 major metropolises, examining factors such as crime, healthcare, education, public services, recreation, housing and personal freedom.

According to this years ranking, Bangui, Central African Republic (230) been the lowest ranking African city for quality of living is the worst city to live in Africa. followed by Khartoum, sudan (227), N’Djamena Chad (226), Brazzaville Congo (224) and Kinshasa Democratic Republic of the Congo (223).

Persistent political instability, poverty, extreme climates and lack of appropriate infrastructure investments means the cities above have the lowest quality of living worldwide.

Two Nigeria cities Abuja (213) and Lagos (212) Also made it into the top 20 worst cities to live in Africa.

Abuja, Nigeria’s Federal Capital was ranked 213 out of 231 countries making it the 13th worst city to live in Africa, while Lagos was ranked 212, making it the 14th worst city to live in Africa..

Some of these reports while true, are just meant to continually show Africa in a bad light and it's a shame that we fall for them all the time.

Nigeria/France Friendly - Super Falcons to Report in Paris April 3
Nigeria's Super Falcons are expected to report to camp in Paris on April 3 ahead of their friendly match against France on April 6, an official said on Monday.
Ruth David, Head of Women Football Unit in the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), disclosed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja.
After placing third in the maiden West African Football Union (WAFU) Women's Cup tournament last month, the Grade A friendly on April 6 is the team's next assignment.
"The list of invited players has been submitted to the Communications Department and it will be made known to the public soon.
"Meanwhile, we are sorting out their visa issues at the moment and in due course we will let the necessary information out," David added.(NAN)

ok thanks for this.

Schemerkhiz:
We have barely 10 days left for the Friendly game against the French side..

And no team list yet?

stanbillion200:
Yes, let Agbo play so that we can see his qualities.
I've not seen him play before

Abi dem just dey call some people come dance shaku shaku.

Kog45:
Mikel Agu so far in eagles not convincing,so guys are right with their tweets but what would they say about Agbo making the team and yet to feature even in friendlies.

The thing is we know Agbo may never start, but Rohr seems to be fund of Mikel Agu.

shogz89:
yes its comical as well saying if you can dribble like moses then you must have a name!! is he messi or ronaldo. How many minutes have henry played in the GWG, have you giving him as much minutes as moses which butress my point you might be good but lack platform to showcase. i still maintain my stand henry dribbles more than moses.. moses might be better in other aspect but not dribbles. Dont make me sound like i hate victor am a chelsea fan.

l agree, Henry dribbles better than Moses, although Moses can dribble as well.
l wonder why this is even an arguement, thought it was obvious.

shogz89:
i agree with you on the bold. This what the croats have to say after our win over poland

That guy mentioned lwobi, and a Croat Arsenal fan there protested that lwobi was no threat.

asha80:
ok i get what you are saying but off my head available attacking midfielders now are aluko and nwakali

l wonder what also became of Steven Sunday and Anderson Esiti.

Martz101:
sone aluko is not a midfielder, aluko is a winger and his having a poor season, have you had of a pidgin proverb "this one good....this one good, naso madness dey start. everybody can make the team

Aluko a winger?

asha80:
these are wingers/strikers not attacking midfielders

l mentioned all the players we need now in all departments. Aluko is an attacking midfielder.

Martz101:
Name an attacking midfielder we should have gotten to replace, do you think Nigeria is Chelsea were we can afford to buy fabregas because we need a midfielder

We have Aluko, and what of Kingsley Sokari? even Nosa lgiebor has been completely forgotten.
To strengthen the team, we don't need an Agu since we have so many good players in his position. We need a Samuel Kalu, Sone Aluko, Ajiboye(Aiyenugba) and a fit Onyekuru , and we are set for the world cup.

BascoVanVeli:
I don't blame any of the fullback. U do all this running and when u are supposed to get the ball it doesn't come and next thing the ball is lost and u have to run 50 yards back. That's why Echiejile just stopped bombing forward because he probably was like "what's the use?"

Normally when you make that run, a midfielder steps back a little to cover your tracks.

LieDetector:
he lacks some fundamentals yet he has kept a clean sheet in two matches against teams in the top ten. Yet your ajiboye with a truckload of fundamentals in stock dey chop 4 against morrocco B team.

Ezenwa conceeded 4 against Ghanian B team, but looked solid against Cameroon, because he was protected by Ekong and Balogun. You can't rule Ajiboye out completely simply because of the Moroccan game.

elyte89:
On a simpler note,Joel obi is d new "taye taiwo" in terms of beauty ,baba no try at all

Nor be him create himself na! who beauty epp?

forgiveness:
No, I meant while he played.

Baba u don confuse me this time wahlai.

samsobo24:
Brilliant

Nigeria is extremely beautiful.

TayserMahiri:
Kenya has to be one of the most diversified on the continent. No single sector runs the economy.

Tourism??

oloriooko:
Peru beat Croatia 2-0
Mexico beat Iceland 3-0

ls this good or bad?

Humility017:
you're right with your first sentence..that could be after the world cup....maybe one young lad may spring up kelechi nwakali or even onomah could agree play for Nigeria...that's topic for another day.

but relating to the bolded...ajayi I think is a CF...not a Midfieder.
I have watched some of his highlights too....I will want nancho or iwobi to still be tried there....for now....and Ighalo seems not to be a perfect solution to our striking problem...I pray Henry recover on time prior the drafting of the 35 man list.

Henry has recovered, he may start playing again in a month's time.

komekn:
Why has Aina not had a chance to play RB a position he was voted best RB in the championship.

For me Ebuehi is better going forward and Shehu is better defensively and Aina is somewhere in between. But I can't say for sure till he plays at least 45 minutes. Hopefully Aina willl play against Serbia.

Well from what l saw, defensively Ebuehi positions himself better than Shehu, and even though he attacks he is not easily caught out of position.

lf fifa like make dem rank us 120 this time, na dem sabi

Ebuehi to come on.

Omeruo for Balogun.

Bolowolowo:
The Poles do not merit their 6th place ranking

l tell u

1-0.

penalty

Ahmed Musa for lwobi

TheLoneCitizen:
Same page, My man, I don't understand where all the negativity is coming.

Poland sixth in world. Nigeria seventh I'm Africa.
The bookies pitch us heavy underdogs at 5+ odds.
Away from home.
Match a sellout, 90% of the fans Polish.
A 19-year old amateurish goalkeeper.
Eagles missing their number one talisman.

I could keep going on and on to prove that this has been a positive half. C'mon brothers.

l tire for them too oh.

tbaba1234:
Balogun and Ekong have protected Uzoho well..

Those guys can also protect the likes of Ajiboye, and they did protect Ezenwa against Cameroon.

Ebuehi must come in.

These polish people sabi fall sha.
