Gabon still make it to 2014 list, time to fly to Gabon to see things myself.

You all that are complaining that Nigeria is better than Gabon. Know this, Nigeria stop developing long time ago. We only celebrate road projects by the government whereas all this countries have moved beyond road construction. Big 2025 Nigeria don't have 24/7 power supply 💀

Find below ranking for top ten developed countries in Africa as at 2014 thanks to gemini:

The "most developed" countries are typically ranked using the Human Development Index (HDI), which is compiled by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and accounts for life expectancy, education, and per capita income.
Based on the 2014 Human Development Report (which used 2013 data), the top 10 most developed countries in Africa by HDI rank (global HDI rank in parentheses) were:
🌍 Top 10 Most Developed Countries in Africa (2014 HDI)
* Libya (Global Rank: 55) - This was noted as a high human development country in the 2014 report, despite a subsequent decline due to conflict.
* Mauritius (Global Rank: 63)
* Seychelles (Global Rank: 71)
* Algeria (Global Rank: 83)
* Tunisia (Global Rank: 90)
* Botswana (Global Rank: 105)
* Egypt (Global Rank: 106)
* Gabon (Global Rank: 110)
* South Africa (Global Rank: 118)
* Cabo Verde (Global Rank: 122)
The 2014 report classified only five African countries as having High Human Development (HDI value between 0.700 and 0.799): Libya, Mauritius, Seychelles, Tunisia, and Algeria. The remaining countries in the top 10 were categorized as having Medium Human Development (HDI value between 0.550 and 0.699).
Would you like to know more about what the Human Development Index measures or compare this list to a more recent ranking?

Even if na 20 sef Naija no suppose still dey there.

But richest politicians or pastors then na we go carry first.

Bunch of greedy and selfish scammers.

SatoshiX:
As bad as this country is, I can categorically state that Gabon is no where more developed than Nigeria.

Have you been to Gabon?

Do you think development is measured by the number of flyovers.

Pootle:

So because nigeria was not listed 2014,that is now an excuse for Nigeria to remain stagnant and retrogressive,huh?!

So much for Mallam mentality!!!

And you had to drop this empty epistle

Bone147:
By then, u are dead

and you alive to enjoy our prophesies

They were clearly not ranked according to infrastructure. Otherwise Seychelles and Mauritius will have no business in that list and Nigeria, Kenya and Ghana will sit among the top 5.

crazygod:
Have you been to Gabon?

Lagos alone is twice more developed than Gabon. These ranking neglected infrastructure and focused more on HCD, GDI, and per capita income, including quality of life.

Agbaya of africa is nowhere to be found

this information can't be altered like the NBS in the kitty of Tinubu. If not, Nigeria will be in NO 1.

TimiofAbuja:
where is African giant?

African giant are in number 52 😂😂

Once wike construct a flyover over a footpath for them, they are satisfied.

TimiofAbuja:
where is African giant?

Ruined by herdsmen

My country no dey ever dey dis kind list

She is sleeping sir

TimiofAbuja:
where is African giant?

Fake African giant that a druuggiee and tribalistic rulers are deceiving the populace. Even in the next 50 years they can be on this list with the crop of these sets in the helm of the affairs. Tormenters that use tribalism, religion, corruption to kill justice, competence, and the will of the people.

Alphafarms:
When we tell people supporting a useless government all because of tribe and religion, you Just have to know their level of exposure in life. Travel to small African countries and see that Nigeria is left behind in terms of development. They keep consoling themselves with giant of Africa scrab

So you blame Tinubu for not developing Nigeria since 1960?

Lagos is backward.... Gabon is developed

crazygod:

Do you need to have gone to the US to know it's more developed than Ghana and Nigeria put together? They used human development index to rank them and you want me to visit Gabon to know it's infrastructurally ahead of Nigeria? Or what are you talking about? Because I don't get. You want to match the them city for city, roads for roads, skylines for skylines, and the likes? Pls make me understand you that have been to Gabon. My development metric is anchored on infrastructure here because that's what we have against most of the countries in that list. I've not been to Gabon.

You had better be specific.

You know we could have just googled who is more developed between Gabon and Nigeria instead of all this epistle. From all sites I have been to, it is claimed that Gabon is more developed than Nigeria. Even UN made a report about it.

By the way, I am currently living in Lagos and it's an overrated city. Very dirty, light issues and the air alone is choking. 90% of Lagos is a slum.

De play.

The guy na IPOB biggest supporter on Nairaland. He should leave Nigeria and focus his energy on Biafra.

Your Zoo should disappoint him by making the list.

SatoshiX:
Yes! Have you?
Fyi, Gabon relied so much on Nigeria for most of its Judicial officers.

Hear yourself. Are we talking about Judicial officers or infrastructural development.. Go to Libreville and go feed your eyes. Zero steady electricity in naija and you call that development. Dey play

TimiofAbuja:

They first on countries that went backyards in 2025.....

SatoshiX:

I think you have mistaken Gabon for Gambia. If you talk of Gambia I won't argue with you because it's an English speaking country, and Nigeria has actually supplied them with judges in the 1960s/1970s to grow their judiciary. But Gabon is a French speaking country, and I have never heard of Nigeria giving them judicial workers. Ask yourself, what will be the language of communication in the court room since Nigerians are English speaking?
