Nigeria has become the poverty capital of the world

The United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) to end extreme poverty by 2030 is unlikely to be met—no thanks, in large part, to Nigeria.

A new report by The World Poverty Clock shows Nigeria has overtaken India as the country with the most extreme poor people in the world. India has a population seven times larger than Nigeria’s. The struggle to lift more citizens out of extreme poverty is an indictment on successive Nigerian governments which have mismanaged the country’s vast oil riches through incompetence and corruption.


The 86.9 million Nigerians now living in extreme poverty represents nearly 50% of its estimated 180 million population. As Nigeria faces a major population boom—it will become the world’s third largest country by 2050—it’s a problem will likely worsen. But having large swathes of people still living in extreme poverty is an Africa-wide problem.

No son. Dont be a quack scientist. Locusts actually dont fly when there are strong winds because they will be carried away, and when they do (fly), they fly towards (or against) the wind, not with it. See the effects of fake Tanzanian degrees. You are claiming that locust swarms use the wind as mass transit, lol. Luckily, real research, done by real scientists calls BS to your fake bongo theory. How the locusts fly the long distances without tiring has nothing to do with wind. In fact, wind is their biggest enemy in terms of flight because they are too tiny to resist.




We can even test your quack theory with realtime data. Click the link below (zoom to EA) and observe the wind patterns at this time. You will notice, quite unfortunately for you and your quack theory, that the wind is moving in a North Westerly direction. If your theory were correct, we would expect the locusts to be heading to Sudan and central Africa and the general direction of north west africa (Algeria and co). In fact they wouldnt have crossed the Red Sea into Africa in the first place. (current wind patterns snapshot below)

https://earth.nullschool.net/#current/wind/surface/level/orthographic=-308.61,21.30,1183

In nature, locusts naturally fly towards (not with) the wind, provided it is not too strong. They travel an average 80 km per day relying purely on their inbuilt mechanisms, no assistance from the wind whatsoever. They dont need powerful flight like birds as you claim, they only need efficient flight. You are forgetting that birds fly thousands of miles without stopping while locusts dont need to fly thousands of miles, they have farms to feast on along the way remember,,, thats their job! They hop from vegetation to the next. Their movement is more akin to an army advancing on foot while avian movement can be comparable to aerial (jet) invasion.

Anyway, clip below loosely explains the efficiency mechanism of locust flight, which is close to what a humming bird does. They dont waste energy flapping wings up and down like most birds, instead they angularly twist their wings (rather) effortlessly, like waving your hand, to maintain a consistent flapping rate, saving a lot of energy. Thats how they managed to get to Tanzania all the way from Arabian deserts without tiring. However, unlike humming birds, when the wind gets too strong, locusts cant fly,,, getting us back to the main point, which was that locusts dont use the wind as mass transit, as the quack scientist suggested (where did you get 20kph from??)

That guy is really daft... I exposed Nairoslum as the slum capital of Africa and he switched to poverty... All the slums in Nairobi account for just 6% of it's landmass but over 60% of it's population...

What an overrated city...

Danielnino00:


We are talking about slums ..
The poverty capital of the world story is already stale.. everybody knows about it already... But of course, we know the region responsible for much of the poverty in the country and the reasons why they have refused to progress .

However, we are talking about slums... Nairobi is officially recognized as the slum capital of Africa.. for a city that boost of being green under the sun or whatever, that's pathetic.. over 200 slums in one city ! Over 2million slum dwellers!! That's a shame

World poverty capital only on paper!! When the real poverty capital is kenya. Turkana has given us the Video

gallivant:




Corn and cassava will not make the United Republic a great power.

SUFFERInSMILIIN:

The good news is the Locust cannot eat the cassava because it is underground
Locust cannot dig underground so the tanzanians might have a benefit her

Kazikazi:
Tanzania

TayserMahri:


Another fact

Man, just see how beat-up that airport is...like an abandoned building...

gallivant:


You are right. Tanzania might be the first Cassava super power ever.

SUFFERInSMILIIN:


But in reality this might be very true because the second rains are coming in Tanzania and the locusts have destroyed everything so all the Farmers will be forced to plant cassava Tanzania will overtake Nigeria as a cassava producer. Tanzania will become the world's biggest producer and exporter of cassava Kenyans you must watch out because your brothers are going to be flooded with Tanzanian conserver and very cheap price.

gallivant:


You are absolutely correct. Cassava will propel Tanzania from LDC category to developed status all thanks to a few locusts.

SUFFERInSMILIIN:


Kazikazi will become the next dangote he will become a billionaire in cassava export. I think this is time I go to Tanzania to get Farmland because with the locus disturbing East Africa and Central Africa food price will Skyrocket and the only food on the market will be cassava. I need to go to Tanzania to get Farmland and plant cassava

SUFFERInSMILIIN:
Multiple battles on nairaland between the Nigerians and Ghanaians

Shma:

Kuruptnigga:
You don't need to bother yourself on that idiot. He's the dumbest Kenyan among all he's talking about Poverty. When 3.4 million idiots are dying of poverty in Turkana only!!! We haven't talk about the remaining part of the country! Shame??
