Nigeria was yesterday ranked the 15th most failed nation in the world, out of a total of 177 countries that were surveyed. The country moved upwards three places from 18th position in 2008; and 17th in 2007.

The newly released Failed State Index 2009 was published by the United States think-tank and an independent research organisation, the Fund for Peace, and the magazine Foreign Policy. This is the 5th edition, since 2005.

You don't know how bitter life in nigeria is until you try elsewhere.
Its frustrating because we have all it takes but can never be managed rigghtly. Countries like Ghambia, Cameroun, Togo.. even Benin republec, has nothing but at least they is public order, roads, and law.
