With a gross domestic product of $511 billion in 2021, Nigeria has the largest economy in Africa. However, the level of inclusive development is low: 40.09% of Nigerians are poor; the average years of education is 6.1 years; 14.3% of the population have never attended school; 36.8% of children under 5 suffer from malnutrition; the infant mortality rate is 75.7 per 1,000 live births. All these factors combine to give a life expectancy at birth of 52.7 years.
