#DailyDataCard: What does freedom really mean, 65 years after independence?
In 1960, 17 African countries gained independence, but political rights and civil liberties have followed different paths since then. Today, Nigeria ranks 5th among its peers with a freedom score of 44, behind Senegal, Benin, Madagascar, and Côte d’Ivoire.
This raises a deeper question: how free are Nigerians to speak, organise, and hold leaders accountable and what will it take to strengthen these freedoms?

#DailyDataCard: In 2024, more than 399,000 foreign workers entered the United States through the H-1B visa program.
India dominated the approvals with over 283,000 beneficiaries, while Nigeria ranked 10th with 2,273 recipients.
With the recent development of the U.S. introducing a $100,000 cost for the H-1B visa, these 2,273 Nigerians face significant risk if they are unable to meet the financial requirement, an amount equivalent to about N149 million.

#DailyDataCard: What does it really take to eat healthy?
In 2025, Nigeria ranked fourth globally, with the daily cost of a healthy diet at $4.72 per person, about N7,080 at today’s exchange rate.
But the real issue is not just food availability, it’s whether families can actually afford nutritious meals.
For many, even a simple healthy plate is already out of reach, making it increasingly difficult to live active and healthy lives.

#DailyDataCard: What does it mean when a country has no debt with the IMF?
The latest IMF Credit Outstanding Report (as of September 11, 2025) shows Argentina leading global debtors with over ₦41 trillion owed, followed by Ukraine, Egypt, Pakistan, and Ecuador.
Nigeria, by contrast, has not appeared on the list for the sixth consecutive release, confirming that it currently owes no debt to the IMF.
While this may suggest a measure of fiscal independence, it also raises deeper questions about how Nigeria is financing its deficits and the long-term sustainability of its broader debt profile.

#DailyDataCard: Nigeria ranks 21st out of 34 African countries in closing the gender data gap, with 53.3% of gender-related data missing.
The Gender Data Outlook (launched in 2024) tracks how countries gather and use gender data to drive equality.
To change this, Nigeria must invest in stronger gender-disaggregated data so policies and resources truly reflect the needs of women and men alike.

#DailyDataCard: Nigeria ranks 19th out of 24 African countries in cost of living, placing it behind Ghana, which ranks 13th.
However, despite appearing “cheap,” Nigeria has the lowest purchasing power among these countries. In reality, weak incomes mean millions of Nigerians still cannot afford even basic needs.
Cheap is not the same as affordable.

#DailyDataCard: Nigeria has one of the youngest populations in the world, yet when it comes to real involvement in economic, civic, and political life, we rank 25th out of 44 African countries.
On this #InternationalYouthDay , the numbers challenge us to move beyond symbolic celebrations. True progress means giving young people not just a seat at the table, but the power to shape the agenda.

#DailyDataCard: The 2025 WAEC results are the worst recorded in the last decade.
While attention often turns to students in moments like this, the more urgent questions are for the system: What changed? What stopped? What was ignored?
Ultimately, this outcome raises serious concerns about the quality of education being delivered in Nigeria and calls into question whether the current educational system is truly working.

#DailyDataCard: Naija no dey carry last and our women just proved it again!
Nigeria just made history as the first team to win five consecutive Women’s AfroBasket titles, bringing home our seventh overall win. From 2017 to 2025, our women have ruled the court with grit, discipline, and unity.
Congratulations to the champions. You did not just make Nigeria proud, you redefined what is possible for generations to come.

#DailyDataCard: Did you know Nigeria's GDP purchasing power parity ranks 9th among BRICS+ countries?
While China and India lead the bloc, Nigeria holds just 0.76% of global share of GDP purchasing power parity.
We’ve joined the bloc, but what does that really mean for us?
Will this lead to increased economic gains and relations for Nigeria between the BRICS+ countries, or is it just another title?

#DailyDataCard: Yesterday was World Youth Skills Day, a day to celebrate the power of young people and the importance of equipping them with the skills to thrive.
But for many Nigerian youths, the reality is far from ideal. According to the latest Youth Development Index, Nigeria ranks third from the bottom among Commonwealth countries.
There is a need for stronger youth empowerment, not just at the systemic level through policies and investments, but also through personal capacity building.
Young people are not just beneficiaries of development; they are the engine that drives innovation, resilience, and societal progress.

#DailyDataCard: Death comes for us all—but for Nigerian presidents and heads of state, the timing often makes headlines.
From assassinations to peaceful passings, this timeline shows how and when our past leaders exited not just office, but life itself.
With the recent death of Muhammadu Buhari, he becomes only the second democratically elected Nigerian president to die after leaving office.
It’s a sobering reminder of our history, our politics, and the weight of leadership in Nigeria.

#DailyDataCard: In today’s Data Card, we spotlight the 26 international trips President Tinubu has made during his two years in office, which illustrates the frequency of Nigeria’s diplomatic engagements under his leadership.
This also highlights the geographical spread and intensity of efforts to project Nigeria’s influence and strengthen alliances across continents.

#DailyDataCard: In the first quarter of 2025, Nigeria earned over ₦12 trillion from crude oil exports alone.
Now here’s the thing — everywhere you turn, it’s “agriculture is the future,” “agribusiness is the way,” and “we need to diversify.” But when the numbers speak, agriculture brought in just 8%. Manufacturing? Less than 2%.
So as a country, what are we really investing in?
If we say we believe in agriculture, how are we making sure it actually brings in value like oil does?

#DailyDataCard: Did you know Nigeria is both hosting refugees and losing its own to displacement?
Over 106,000 people have found safety here, while more than twice that number of Nigerians have been forced to seek refuge in places like Niger, Cameroon, and even the US.
It’s a reminder that when conflict happens, anyone could be forced to leave their homes

#DailyDataCard: the recent analysis of the 2025 utme results released by jamb shows that a majority of students have always scored below 200 since 2013, with 71% falling below that mark this year, a 5% decrease compared to 2024.
#DailyDataCard: Did you know Nigeria ranks 31st out of 33 police forces in Sub-Saharan Africa?
The issues? Bribery, low staff numbers, conflict, and reports of assault.
What does this say to you about policing in Nigeria today?

#DailyDataCard: Did you know about some of the big reforms and bills signed under President Tinubu in the last two years?
Fuel subsidy gone, anthem changed, student loans, new data laws… it’s been eventful.
How are these changes showing up in your everyday life?
#DailyDataCard: Where does all the tax go?
Nigeria’s tax to GDP ratio tells a story of ups and downs from 10.9% in 2021 to just 5.1% in 2022, now rising slightly to 8.1% in 2024.
Take a closer look at what these numbers could mean for the economy.

#DailyDataCard: Imagine being 15 and working more hours than most adults. That’s the reality for many boys in Nigeria today.
As we mark the International Day of the Boy Child, it’s a reminder that boyhood, for many, comes with adult responsibilities far too early.
