Thank you Buhari, you've achieved a milestone...

I suspect you didn't comprehend what you read so let me break it down for you in dummy mode ::

China has 1.4 billion [/b]people and just [b]14 million people living in abject poverty

India has 1.3 billion people and 67 million people living in abject poverty .

Nigeria has has 190 million people with 92 million living in abject poverty


Okay now let's do the maths by adding China's poor and India's poor together and compare against Nigerias poor .

67 million + 14 Million = 81 million

So you can see even though the combination of China and India has 14 times our population we have more poor people than both countries combined . Can you see how bad it is ..

Thanks my dear.

The guy you quoted is dumber than Buhari

The poor buharists embraces poverty,even the educated ones here lie everyday and one would think they get contracts every month from the government,some of them will borrow money to feed then come here to defend a complete failure.

One of them in my area sent me a text message just 2 days ago asking for some soft financial assistance to feed his growing daughter and I just remembered our arguments before the elections and his celebration after the election and I told him I don't have

Wail on idiot people from d so called western word

You people are pained and nothing u will do....

Your enemy tells you 1+1= 2 and you become entaged. Does it change the facts?

It's not about being pained. The economy is in a dreadful state.

These are the opinions of an economist. They are the best to educate about the state of the economy.

If you're very sick , do you consult the average Joe on street on what to do or you consult a doctor? Likewise, you should seek the opinion of an economist on economic related.

they are the ones who beg the most and after offering help to them they will still boldly tell you that buhari has fixed the economy, the price of commodities is down but they've forgotten they complained about the price of commodities before....... World people.

I never insulted your family man , I just advised you do the maths and you will see that Nigerians are really in a bad place , the truth is that most Nigerians are poor and many are very poor so we can't keep pretending.

This article is based on total rubbish....

Imagine this abstract :

A decade ago, Nigeria had far fewer people in extreme poverty than either China or India; today, according to data compiled by the World Data Lab, it has more than both combined. The count stands at more than 90 million

Imagine in a country of like 190 million people... Their stats is claiming 90 million are in extreme poverty.... Thats a big lie

Check out this stats:
we have over 2 million registered member on Nl.. at least 10 000 is active daily.. All those 10,000 have families... As along as the 10,000 have a browsing phone and data to browse it means their family are not extremely poor


So Where's the Stats coming from
No repeat this nonsense in the public again bro.

The fact that you wilfully insist on misinterpreting as an insult what is merely a statement of fact - that almost every Nigerian who isn’t Dangote will have numerous relatives living below the poverty line - shows that you either have serious problems comprehending written English, or that you know you have no reasonable arguments to counter this damning assessment of Buhari’s tenure, and are therefore looking for a dishonest way to disrail the discussion into irrelevancies. Stop feigning insults where none where clearly none were intended, and either point out any factual errors you see, or admit the obvious about Buhari’s failures as a leader!

Oga,percentage is what is used not population. Nigeria has about 50% poverty rate, that mean, when for every 10persons counted, 5are poor.
If India and China have 30%poverty rate, it means if every 10 persons counted, only3are poor. I hope you understand now.
