Nothing good @all for the failed giant of Africa. The advent of the APC in the national life of Nigeria came with all these negativity. It gonna takes its decades to reverse these backwardness.

Just incase there’s still anyone out there not fully appreciating the shit we’re in and attempting to spin the report into something positive for Nigeria! shocked
I mean, I try to see the positive in everything, but I'm finding it very hard to give a positive spin to this

Yet just like Buhari, his reelection is almost a done deal. Infact if he runs for 3rd term he'd very likely win! cheesy

You people should stop this boring attitude of deliberately derailing from the topic of discussion

PURE SCAM AND SHAMBOLIC ''REPORT'' SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED TO SMEAR NIGERIA.

IN A WORLD OF 204 COUNTRIES, THEY SELECTED 88 COUNTRIES RANKED HIGHER THAN NIGERIA, AND PLACED NIGERIA LAST.

TO CREATE THE ILLUSION THAT NIGERIA IS THE WORST PLACE ON EARTH.

WHY NOT RANK ALL 204 COUNTRIES?

ONLY 3 AFRICAN COUNTRIES ON THE LIST - SOUTH AFRICA, EGYPT, NIGERIA.

WHERE ARE THE OTHER 51 AFRICAN COUNTRIES?

BUNCH OF CRIMINALS.

Baba, some of these topics should be ignored jàre, tough as it may be.

You know for a fact that the so called rankings is a nonsense and the op will defend it till kingdom come because Peter Obí came third in 2023 and the pain is still real.
Re: Nigeria Ranks Last In Quality Of Life 2026 by Jakumo(m):
The key index of life quality that relegated Nigeria to its new position at the bottom of the list is SECURITY, without which even the richest person living in Nigeria is endangered.

Even those who can afford to hire armed police or military escorts in Nigeria could still fall into an ambush on their way to the airports, as they seek to avoid road travel. Furthermore, the mere presence of a heavy contingent of armed officers accompanying any individual is an indication to criminals that a very big payday can be possible if those armed guards could be overpowerered in a surprise attack or ambush.

The real winners in Nigeria currently are those who looted the treasury and then queitly slipped away to live in the comparative safety of Europe, Canada or America.

Nigeria is by any yardstick, a basket case of a country right now, yet it would be simplistic to blame only the current government because the deterioration of the Nigerian economy started decades ago, and thus cannot be fixed quickly, even if that is the honest intent of any elected government.

But our president is saying he has shared our monies with our Governors and LG Counsellors.

That we should go and meet them and hold them accountable. That's all that concerns him.

The truth is, Nigerians are happy with their leadership and their way of life. Just conduct a poll on nairaland now.
