Lol, see how stupid you sound.
your small sense didn't direct your brainless brain to see housing, health care, public service and of course crime rate which is also security as the prerogative for which the worse cities have been rated.

I jokingly made a comment which when logically and critically analysed and comprehended isn't far fetched, but because you have itching fingers and 'na you carry 9ja for head pass' has made you reasoned with your ball-less balls.
you should offer yourself sense if there's even space for it.

Ball-less balls... chisos

what?! Mehn this our Nigeria eh.. even countries like Uganda, Kenya and Ghana have long surpassed us. We've got everything to be great - the resources and population but our leaders are just a curse...sad to say, the reflection of the people they lead. Nigerians must arise and take responsibility to transform this nation. Let's have more self willed people like Oyedepo, Oyakhilome, Dangote, Elumelu, Ikejis and so on

If you consider epileptic power supply and heat plus mosquitos, you will see that all Nigerian cities should be on that list.
