Hmmm... it's clear that these oyibo people don't like us. lol. Always putting our beautiful city in negative light. According to Thompson Reuters survey, the city of Cairo in Egypt is the most dangerous city for women to live in the World. But it seems if they don't always put Lagos on their list it wont't be complete.
Thompson Reuters just released the top 10 most dangerous places for women and Lagos ranks 8th.
FULL LIST;
1. CAIRO
2. KARACHI
3. KINSHASA
4.DELHI
5.LIMA
6.MEXICO CITY
7.DHAKA
8.LAGOS
9.JAKARTA
10. INSTABUL
The poll which sought the opinion from some 380 experts in women’s issues, was conducted in 19 of the world’s biggest megacities (as ranked by the United Nations) between June and July 2017.
The cities were ranked based on four major factors – sexual violence, access to healthcare, cultural practices and economic opportunities. Karachi in Pakistan followed Cairo, and next in line was Kinshasa in Democratic Republic of the Congo, then the Indian capital New Delhi.
Women’s rights campaigners in Cairo said traditions dating back centuries made it a tough city, with discrimination rife. Delhi and Sao Paulo emerged as the worst cities when respondents were asked if women could live there without the risk of sexual violence, including rape, attacks or harassment.
