things weren't more 'affordable' in 2010 than now. the problem with you people is that you don't know how inflation and currency adjustment works. do you think rice was more affordable in the past than now?
children used to celebrate when their mum is cooking rice. Nigerian currency have been readjusted by Nigerians and they have eliminated 5Naira and 10 Naira. Buhari can reciprocate the trick by removing 1 zero from our currency and then a bag of rice will now be 4,500 Naira but he will not do it because he doesn't care about propaganda

what are you even saying? where did you get all these from?

how were things not more affordable in 2010 than now?

pls explain how inflation and currency adjustment works

National Poverty Eradication Programme (NAPEP) is a 2001 program by the Nigerian government addressing poverty in Nigeria and related issues. Otondo
NAPEP is a PROGRAMME. A body responsible for implementing sets of programmes towards eradicating poverty while NBS is the national statistical body charged with generating socio- economic data on areas of development.

Can we forget Anambra poverty of 2010 and talk about Nigeria poverty of 2022



Thing is that There is no poverty in Anambra as Soludo stated, But same can't be said of Nigeria in General,

For a state to come out Top in Education, Even having the best WAEC Student with a blasterring Straight A's,

Soludo just Shoot himself on his foot with a boozoka,

And Obi had not only put him in his passing his Response, But, had thrown the Challenge to him,

Mynd44:
Former Central Bank Of Nigeria and Present Governor of Anambra State, Professor Charles Soludo in an article titled "History beckons and I will not be silent " wrote about the poverty level of Anambra state from 2006 to 2010 while the present Presidential Candidate of the Labor Party, Peter Obi was in his first term as governor of Anambra state.

In an article which many described as either very needless as they claimed Charles Soludo is merely bitter and angry, others praised it as they said it brought into public light numerous false misconceptions by Peter Obi's supporters.

Either way, his comment on the statistics of the poverty level in Anambra, got tongues wagging and fingers typing (mine included) and a lot of people have said the former CBN governor simply lied (but did he?)

Claim: Charles Soludo wrote that "…poverty in Anambra actually grew (from less than 25% in 2005) to about 53% under Peter Obi in 2010/2011 but fell under Willie Obiano to 14.78% in 2020. Yes, poverty more than doubled under Peter Obi and more than 50% of Ndi Anambra were in poverty under him. Go and verify"

This isn't all as he had wrote something similar in 2015 in an article titled "Buhari vs Jonathan: Beyond the Election" where he wrote that "According to the National Bureau of Statistics, poverty rose under his watch in Anambra from 20% in 2004 (lowest in Nigeria then) to 68% in 2010 (a 238% deterioration!)."

These two quotes seem similar but can also be be different as the numbers dont match but if we look closely, in the 2022 letter, he mentioned 2010/2011 which was mostly measured in 2011 and in the 2015 letter, he was specific about the year 2010.

Verification: According to a press briefing By then Statistician General of the federation and lead of the National Bureau of Statistics, Yemi Kale in a press briefing titled "Press Briefing By The Statistician-General Of The Federation/Chief Executive
Officer, National Bureau Of Statictics Dr. Yemi Kale" delivered in February 2012.

Now since the NBS does not release poverty levels per years, we can only judge with the 2010 report

It is seen that the poverty level of Anambra state as at 2010 was at 68% (see image below) which matches the value quoted by Professor Charles Soludo in his 2015 article.

Verdict: The statement by the Anambra state governor, Professor Soludo claiming that the poverty level in Anambra while Peter Obi was governor rose to 68% in 2010 and 53% in 2010/2011 can be said to be true and not an exaggeration.


Also notable is that when Peter Obi responded to Professor Soludo in 2015, he did not refute the poverty percentage.



No be you again? Can any truth come out from you.?
NEVER

Is everyone now comfortable in Anambra under Soludo's watch?
Ranting about nothing when he hasn't achieved any tangible result to match or give him an edge over the object of his tirade.

But isn't it interesting that nobody is blaming Peter Obi of graft and misappropriation of public funds? All I hear is that he lied about his claims of success. Even when they mentioned Pandora papers, it is all about tax avoidance. He remains the best candidate.

Do we really need fact check on Soludo's statement?
Who else should know more about Obi's performance and records in office than his brother/successor,an erudite professor of economics with higher intellect & capacity.

Even Obi himself can't disprove the fact of the matter as he was made to be humbled by Soludo's statement of fact.

I reteirate that Obi is a packaged scam and sham that shouldn't be given an opportunity to govern a complex country like nigeria with hydra-headed challenges in our desperate quest for a 'New Nigeria'.
Nigeria is beyond Obi's capacity, competence and scope in all ramifications.
And Tinubu is packaged saint and messaiah right? Can u people have shame for once? My only consolation I have confirmed from many Yoruba friends that even if Tinubu was the only person on the ballot that they will never vote him. It's consoling to know there are still sane and rational beings among you.

Besides since you could not access the poverty level prior to 2010 how exactly did you know that it increased in 2010? What percentage was it prior to 2010?

Peter Obi responded to this very Report on LBS yesterday. On19 Nov 2010 — Magnus Kpakol who is then incharge of National Poverty Eradication Programme rated Anambra state high as the state with the lowest poverty rate among all the states in the country.

Watch the response from Peter Obi on Lagos business school

Mr, anybody who has been on nairaland for sometime can obviously see your obvious flipfloping attitude...all you said in time past about this same Obi still haunts you but hey a man got to do what a man got to do...I get it!

Some of you are just being unreasonable, who said things are not worst under buhari, moreover Nigerians have spent the last 7yrs criticizing, insulting and rebuking buhari administration, whatelse should we do, blow aso rock or shoot buhari in the head to please naive obedient
Peter obi became a topic for scrutiny less than 7months and obedient are playing victim card the most, recently arise tv slander Tinubu age coupled with hundeyin propaganda documentary to mar BAT, urchins aint even all over the place crying victim.

Dear obedient, if you don't love the heat stay the fvck away from the kitchen, tell obi to leave the kitchen and see if there is truly any "obession" GEJ was called clueless, Buhari was called lifeless, weytin Peter don see wey obedient they cry us river.

You expect soludo to keep quiet and watch Peter obi lie confidently to world he made anambra the most developed state by leaving 75billion something obiano tripled without noise, if Peter obi could openly accept soludo is better than him then why the fvck should obi be the best man for the job, can prof. soludo dare say he is better than Tinubu

Soludo has really unsettled the obidients. We told them that Obi tu de lie. Now, when he was lying about his investment in Anambra State they were clapping but now that Soludo countered him, they turned to Soludo for saying the truth with Bureau of Statistics Reports.

Yet the same Anambra people say he is the best Governor that set the pace of growth..

How come those you claim were in poverty say otherwise?

In that same poverty
- debt was cleared
- no borrowings/loans
- over 30 bridges were built
- over 800km of road was tarred
- teaching hospitals were built
- The state became 1st in education
- cleared its MDG goals
- Received best Governor award
- multiple business spring up with support
- drastic cut in cost of governance
- yet over 75bn left in savings

What do they really means by poverty, maybe it could mean poverty to those that depend on stealing the people collective monies like the drug baron.
