We are still struggling with bad roads, electricity and portable water, how are we not more miserable than them.

Lies. Who did the research statistic. Did they go north to the Boko Haram to ask them if they are miserable. It's not everything someone says that you believe.

UK has better infrastructure and power supply than Nigeria.

Nigeria lacks psychiatric hospitals while UK has.

Nigeria and UK are experiencing inflation yet their currency is better than ours.

People have been chased out of their homes and regular killings in Nigeria while migrants are the main population of homeless people.

The list goes on and on so calm down with spreading such unrealistic articles.

Your small airhead doesn't understand that, English are a people from England and they speak a Language called English and that language is taught in schools as a subject, in summary when you hear the one English it is to be interpreted in context.

Jokers..

Nigeria at no 6 just confirms that both the organization and the people that participated in the survey are all mad

Miserability could count for one of the mild psychotic conditions but the other condition seem like a people who mope while their governors pocket LGA funds meant for rural development. I don't know if I would call nija's condition iberiberism'

The 🇬🇧 UK has landed in second place for the most miserable country in the world.

With house prices skyrocketing and the cost-of-living crisis still in full swing, it's no wonder why Britain probably isn't one of the most desirable places to be at the minute.

Data was collected via the Mental Health Quotient (MHQ) assessment, with scores ranging from -100 to 200.

Scores under zero represent 'distressed or struggling', between zero and 50 meant 'enduring' while between 50 and 100 meant 'managing' and scores between 100 and 200 meant 'succeeding or thriving'.

Out of 71 countries surveyed, the UK took the 70th spot overall for mental wellbeing.

The country has been classified as 'distressed or struggling', after scoring 49 in comparison to the average global score of 65.

Of the people who took part in the UK, 35 percent said they were 'struggling' with their wellbeing.

Those at the bottom of the ranking were Brazil, South Africa, the UK and Uzbekistan.

The study stated: "Overall, the insights in this report paint a worrying picture of our post-pandemic prospects.

"We urgently need to better understand the drivers of our collective mental wellbeing, such that we can align our ambitions and goals with the genuine prosperity of human beings."

Let's just thank Nigerian pastors for their role in the country.

Nigeria is cursed trust me. Someone was telling me for 1 month now, NEPA has not given them light. I screamed! Is this not madness? Electricity that even smaller countries do have on a constant mode year in year out is what Nigeria is still battling with. And someone will come here and be screaming no place like home.

Nigeria is cursed trust me.

They don't have their priorities right.

Brats spoilt silly whine when their milkshakes are not cold enough.

They should try a place where even clean water is unavailable to drink.

I was about to say something like this. Their misery is caused by the high expectations not being met and not actual suffering.

British people by nature gives off a vibe which can be perceived as miserable. The reality is very much different.

A smart person would have come back with a superior point.
A smart person won't just come and say "but you are not correct" a smart person would have proved how I was incorrect.
A smart person would have known that I was taking my time to give a detail explanation because I know your I.Q is way too shallow to get the summary, ofcourse if you were a smart person, you wouldn't have come up with correcting my English in the first place....
