It's because dis country have a working system to check their mental health now.... Nigeria wey be say u fit see 20 mad men and women for one local government area wey dey waka for streets.....

In fact any local government I see mad people roaming around, I jst jump to d conclusion that all of them in dat community are mad including d governor and local government chairman....

Also any community or state I see children begging or roaming around during sch hours I immediately jump into d conclusion that d state governor and local government chairman needs serious mental care....

I won't say dis list is wrong but if they want to know d true meaning of misery they should come to Nigeria... It all started in 2015 when a cattle rearer promised us change angry

You underestimate the power of religion at calming people's nerves down. Take religion out of Nigeria and see suicide rate rise astronomically. The only thing giving most people hope in Nigeria is their believe in a benevolent God and the hope of paradise/heaven.

the UK is not the greatest country out there, but to claim that its the most miserable there, when we fully well know that there is at least 100countries where life is more miserable than the UK, is the joke of the day!!!

Check the list again.

Even your country is among the list including united States.

I will choose the "miserable UK" over Nigeria in her best economy.

I told someone that living in Nigeria is better than living in UK because of high cost of rent and tax so long as you are working here in Nigeria. The only advantage is the availability of jobs.

In Nigeria you can own houses and fleet of cars but in UK it's not like that as you'd be questioned to explain how you make your wealth and if it's discovered that you've been evading tax, you're finished.

UK would turn a generous man to a stingy man in a space of time because UK mentality believes that nothing is free.

People in the Scandinavian countries commit suicide at a high rate during the winter when there is only like 2 hrs of daylight. So forget about all that nonsense about the Scandinavian countries being the happiest places on earth.

I see. You don't have to give up so soon if that is actually your dream country. So, which country is your mind on right now? Or you decided to finally just stay back in Nigeria?

Dr Tara Thiagarajan, Sapien Labs Founder and chief scientist, the Daily Mail that there was a reporting bias as the survey was only open to people who had Internet access in each country

This meant that within a less developed country, people surveyed likely also were more well-off and educated, making them more similar to people in developed countries.

This view explains the findings to me.

Living in Nigeria better than UK?
There is no alternative reality in where what you saying is true 😂😂 No African nation can ever match up to the western world.Absolutely none. I hate it when Africans try to compare themselves to the rest of the world.
It’s called corruption. British society is millions and millions and millions of times less corrupt than Africa.

You said I'm wrong but ended up aligning with what I said.
Staying happy, mentally strong & motivated in the face of adversity without being frustrated or miserable is what Fela called Suffering & Smiling. smiley

It's when you are fed up with the suffering or adversity that you start feeling frustrated & miserable.

oga go and look for the difference between suffering and smiling and suffering and hopeful. Nigerians are suffering but they are hopeful of a better future on a personal level and not a country level
