The United Nations recently released a report ranking countries by life expectancy, with Nigeria placed first among those with the lowest. This sparked widespread disagreement, as many questioned the accuracy of the list, noting that some war-torn and famine-stricken nations were not even included.
In reaction, one user commented, “Living in Nigeria is quite risky.” But that statement is misleading — living anywhere in the world comes with risks. Even in developed countries like the United States, people face dangers such as mass shootings, drug crises, and mental health epidemics. Every nation has its struggles, and generalizing Nigeria as an exceptionally “risky” place to live ignores its growing advancements, strong communities, and resilient people working daily to make things better
