Ghana failed to secure a spot in the Top 10 happiest countries on the African continent, according to the latest World Happiness Report.
The report showed that Nordic nations are once again at the top of the happiness rankings.
Finland remained the happiest country for the seventh year in a row, with Denmark, Iceland, and Sweden following closely behind.
However, Libya has the highest happiness score in Africa, with 5.866.
Aside from the happiness rankings, the report took into account a country’s GDP, life expectancy, and perceptions of freedom and corruption to provide insights into each nation’s particular needs.
According to John Helliwell, emeritus professor of economics at the Vancouver School of Economics, University of British Columbia, and a founding editor of the World Happiness Report, the poll asked each participant to rate their whole life, taking into account what they value.
