Its a lie the number is more than that .They should go and do their mathematics very well, even not alone is more than 80m.PDP has milk our country dry they brought poverty and diseases to our country its shall never well with their generation. Nothing working in Nigeria again, I pity the coming generation.

If Na 80 Million self e good

no thanks to hausa people

A gud number of dat figure became poor afta U Ppl came in

Which 80 million? I know they're trying to manage their unpopularity and failures before the international community, because even those that have never been in Nigeria can attest to the fact that over 75% of Nigeria population are poor below the global ratting.

You increase the numbers.

And whose responsibility is it to make them rich?

Mine?
