Nigeria has been ranked third in the list of countries with the most generous people in Africa according to the World Giving Index 2024.

In the list, Kenya ranks number one in Africa and second globally while The Gambia and Liberia rank second and fourth.

According to the World Giving Index, by the Charity Aid Foundation (CAF), “Kenya’s position in the World Giving Index is both impressive and encouraging considering the nation’s battle with a rising cost of living and growing unemployment.

“As a nation with a young population, the high ranking on volunteering and the willingness to help a stranger is a positive indicator of the “utu” spirit which signifies humanity. Kenyans’ actions around donating money also indicate how important it is to help with what one has,” the report says.

The report also revealed that 4.2 billion people gave money, time, or helped someone they didn’t know in 2022. This number represented 72% of the world’s adult population.

Here is a list of countries with most generous people in Africa

1. Kenya (no. 2 globally)

2. The Gambia (no. 4 globally)

3. Nigeria  (#5 globally)

4. Liberia

5. Guinea

6. Sierra Leone

7. Ghana

8. Ethiopia
