Just as Nigeria celebrated her 53rd
anniversary yesterday, a new study was
released by the UN backed Help Age
International advocacy group which
ranked Nigeria among the worst
countries in the world that least care
about their old population, same day.
Out of 91 countries, Nigeria ranked 85,
with a poor record of catering for the
well-being of the elderly, people older
than 60. This reflects its limited pension
coverage, at 5 per cent and poor health
care. It also ranks second lowest
regionally, at 76, in the enabling
environment domain, with only 53% of
older Nigerians enjoying civic freedom.
