https://dailypost.ng/2020/04/10/covid-19-zamfara-leads-as-fg-publishes-full-list-of-11-million-poor-and-vulnerable-nigerians/

So they are more household and individuals in Zamfara than Lagos State

the north is the problem of this country

Nigeria is a mere geographical expression, not a country. One day this scam will be unbundled.

Babatunde40:
A whole Lagos state with over 20 million people, they gave 52,000 only

Chai!

The whole of south west is less than one northern state, e.g compare Jigawa with the sum total of the whole south west.

We were played in 2015 by these northerners.

See Ibadan with a lot of poor people is 90k. Haba

The funny part was seeing the Lagos governor welcome the minister when he could have delegated his deputy to do so.

See wailing wailers o.
The numbers were compiled by the state governments not by FG.
Check the bolded.

"NASSCO, however, did not include Ebonyi and Ogun States on the list, because the states are still in the process of building their social register."

The most sensible comment yet.

You locked down Lagos, Abuja and Ogun, but when you want to share palliatives you begin with Katsina, Zamfara etc

Very controversial!!!

Ibehtee:
Zamfara is not on lockdown, shouldn’t the federal government prioritize states that are lockdown 100%... Hooligans

Ebonyi state was not captured why?

spiritmasquerad:

It clear you have never been up north before

Have you been to Ebonyi state before? Of course your comment suggest otherwise. Am not contesting the fact that they're more poor people in the north compared to other regions but Ebony is as backward as any backward states in Nigeria. Donkey is still a means of transportation in some part of the state. Their state capital is not bigger, busier or even economically buoyant as some towns in Southwest. Takeaway federal allocations from that state and see what will be left of the place.

Sokoto and Borno av least numbers,... Buhari is very dumb.... southerners are using him for good while the northerners who voted him are been cheated

Are you from the north and which part?

Is EBONYI not a state

Smartbrainfix:
Who identified them, how and what criteria? This saddens my heart whenever government proves further their ineptitude to people whose common wealth is handled by............

Fill the gap

I believe it's not ineptitude though. It's more like a crude plan to steal. Shamelessly

Nigerians deserve their politicians.

How can Delta state be higher than Borneo state. I no believe

d fraud in this list smells to d high heavens.
secondly, we shall test d indiscriminate child production in d north that has kept them in perpetual and abject poverty. thanks to their religion that provided such avenue but did not give them the means to maintain such children.

I am doubting this list. How is the number in Borno so low?

This is practically operation feed the north... this government is the worst thing that has happened to Nigeria

When was the census of the poor taken? who registered them ?

You all can see how Buhari got his election votes. He has been paying 1.3m zamfara ppl 5k per month and now jacked up to 20k bc of COVIK 1 9. Tell me why they won't vote for him if he comes out for 3rd term even with his failure.

They have been bribing these ppl for long.

Spits on the Zoo

Put ur real pix in the profile b4 i take u seriously

Be claiming ffn girl....smhh

But IPOB always say poverty and north are 5&6 so they shouldn't complain about this figure unless they want to join the poverty stinking north.

So nobody is poor in Ebonyi state? That's very nice.

ghettokid1:
The whole South-East has 383,316 while Zamfara alone has 1.34 million.

Don't tell me that you believed the reports.

chatinent:
Buhari has finally planned to feed his people indirectly. It's all right.

Stop complaining were you not one of those doing 4+4 sign and chanting sai baba?

Suddenly igbos consider many of their people as poor and vulnerable.
Its strange.

This list is purely for the north to benefit. We have to change the narratives.

Don't actually get it twisted, ..take away state allocation from any state , no state will survive..didn't u see how osun state turned into IDP after their allocation was reduced to nothing following aregbe's borrowing,...using donkey as a means of transportation means nothing afterall the presidency even uses horses for parade

11million? While even all the almajiri in the North are more than 10million wonderful!

FCT people reach 14k When most civil servants reside in Nyanya and co ����

If you want and desire sincere and transparent country, vote for sowore as president in next election.

This covid 19 pandemic issue in Nigeria is not clear to me
1)Why is it that politician are the ones bringing out the figures? At least we should be briefed by a well known doctor on what they are going through, the dangers health workers are passing through in attending to this large numbers of allegedly infected people,And what they need in order to perform their duties.
2)Why is it that no single clip or pics of this covid-19 patients on sick beds or ICU beds has surfaced on the media space in Nigeria, the way we see it on CNN and other foreign media instead of showing us chats of yellow green and red.
3)Where are the dead covid-19 patients buried? And. Why don't they show their remains been moved from the hospital like we see in other countries that really have this covid-19.
4)Why do some states have the same figure of infected people for more than a week now?does it mean that the first case didn't interact with anyone at all.?
5)Why haven't we heard of a single health worker been infected yet in Nigeria with our weak health care system and insufficient protective kits,or is it not the health workers taking care of the large figures of infected people?

Truth is I don't have answer to all your questions but the no. 2 on the list is available on the internet. About 3 or so of it. One was the live video done by Atiku's son while in quarantine. Then there's another that was on air showing another quarantine center where they're being served rice in take-way packs and the camera man was moving from one bed to another asking patients about their health and how they're being treated. Check YouTube for the videos.
