With 87m poor citizens, Nigeria overtakes India as world’s poverty capital
Published June 26, 2018

Nigeria has emerged as the country with the highest number of poor people in the world, overtaking India.

According to a report by the Brookings Institution, data from the World Poverty Clock show that Nigeria now has over 87 million people living in poverty.

The report adds that six Nigerians become poor every minute.

The National Bureau of Statistics had painted a worse picture in 2016 when it reported that no fewer than 112 million Nigerians live below the poverty line

It reads in part, “According to our projections, Nigeria has already overtaken India as the country with the largest number of extreme poor in early 2018, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo could soon take over the number two.

“At the end of May 2018, our trajectories suggest that Nigeria had about 87 million people in extreme poverty, compared with India’s 73 million.

“What is more, extreme poverty in Nigeria is growing by six people every minute, while poverty in India continues to fall.

“In fact, by the end of 2018 in Africa as a whole, there will probably be about 3.2 million more people living in extreme poverty than there are today.”

According to Wikipedia, The World Poverty Clock is a tool to monitor progress against poverty globally and regionally. It provides real-time poverty data across countries.

Created by the Vienna-based NGO, World Data Lab, in 2017, it is funded by Germany’s Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development.

Each April and October, the World Poverty Clock data are updated to take into account new household surveys and new projections on country economic growth from the International Monetary Funds’ World Economic Outlook.

These form the basic building blocks for poverty trajectories computed for 188 countries and territories, developed and developing, across the world.

Organism000:
When a National Budget is financed by borrowed funds, and the borrowed funds disappear without any projects, and the President takes 86 million naira annually just to barb his hair, then transfer the Loan to the head of every Nigerian and their future children.

In the loan document it is written, and must be signed, that we, the 180 million Nigerians hereby agree to re-pay back the loan, with interest at the expiry of the loan tenure.

Now Buhari takes 86 million, just to barb his hair, and I wonder how much his wife spends to make hair too.


I hereby declare, that I do not owe any entity any money or any form of currency, so I do not want to share in the karma of Nigerians. I am a sovereign spirit. Nigerians are paying with their blood for voting in a cursed Human to lead them.

Any time this man is President, the country crumbles.
Take your share of Abacha Loot. This Social Benefit is for Unemployd Nigerian yoots Only

We will see. Just to warn you though, success is shockingly good to see.
You cannot hide it. At least we agree that PDP is FAILURE CONFIRMED. APC is under observation.

The poverty manufacturers did it in 16 years, watch PMB/YO repair everything in half that time and there is nothing you can do about it. If you like pay boys in the bush to kill farmers everyday till next elections. They will soon catch them all and judgement awaits.
