The economist global survey ranks lagos third least liveable city

I think there may be some misinformation here!

The Economist Intelligence Unit's Global Liveability Index is a widely respected survey that ranks cities based on their quality of life, including factors such as healthcare, education, infrastructure, and stability. While Lagos is a large and vibrant city, it is not ranked as the third least liveable city by The Economist.

In fact, according to the 2022 Global Liveability Index, Lagos is ranked 138th out of 140 cities, with a score of 44.5 out of 100. This is due to various challenges the city faces, including poor infrastructure, high crime rates, and limited access to basic services such as healthcare and education.

The top 5 least liveable cities in the 2022 index are:

  1. Damascus, Syria (score: 35.4)
  2. Dhaka, Bangladesh (score: 38.4)
  3. Lagos, Nigeria (score: 44.5)
  4. Tripoli, Libya (score: 45.1)
  5. Port-au-Prince, Haiti (score: 45.2)

It's worth noting that while Lagos faces many challenges, it is also a city with a rich cultural heritage and a growing economy. Efforts are being made to improve the city's infrastructure and quality of life, and it is an important hub for business and innovation in West Africa.
