LIFE Life expetancy under GEJ improved from 47 years in 2010 to 52 years in 2014 (UN) CORRUPTION According to the report released on December 3, 2014, Nigeria scored 27 out of out of a maximum 100 marks to clinch 136th position out of the 175 countries surveyed. This means that Nigeria has ‘improved’ by eight points against its 2013 rating as 144th out of 175 countries. A statement issued from the Berlin office of Transparency International shows that more than two-thirds or over 75 percent of the 175 countries surveyed this year scored below 50, on a scale from 0. Countries within the 0-50 range are perceived to be strikingly corrupt. RAIL TRANSPORT: Over 15 years, Rail transport had been comatose and deserted.

Economy: Nigerian economy was rebased and became biggest economy in Africa, overtaking South Africa. Previous leaders didnt see the need to do this. Single digit inflation and sustained growth in economy. Nigerias economy is the 26th largest in the world. In 2013, IMF classified Nigeria as a Middle Income Nation from the Low Income Nation it had been all the while. IMF also said that hunger has reduced in Nigeria under Jonathan from 16% to 14.1%. KPMG also listed Nigerias interstate High Speed Rail project as one of the world’s top 100 infrastructure projects. The rail system which is currently under construction would connect all states of Nigeria to one another. Economic growth has been at a constant minimum of 6%per annum in the lsat 3 years Agriculture has grown considerably, Nigeria imports less food and produces more than enough for export. The airports now wear new looks unlike before when they looked like Oshodi bus stop of the OBJ era. Elections are now free and fair and no snatching of ballot boxes. Some horribly sentimental people would not do the needful which is to try to verify these things, they would still continue on their hateful trajectory.please feel free to share
