Which of the above statements are incorrect?

Accepted Answer

Lake Victoria is the world's second largest freshwater lake by surface area after Lake Superior (making Statement 1 incorrect, as it says third), and it is shared by only three nations: Tanzania, Uganda, and Kenya (making Statement 3 incorrect, as Rwanda does not border it).
