And this is the exact purpose for which Buhari came.
So no need!

Nigeria has the weakest youths

They know we can't do more than just wailing online,hence this persistent wickedness.

This present APC government has truly hurt Nigerians

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

It is done by each state.

Can someone ask these illiterate touts in Abuja to publish the names and verifiable Contact addresses of the so Called poor people?

The time has come for Nigerians to start taking their destinies in their hands, a handful of fulani men from Guinea will not keep using the brains of Southern intellectuals with reckless abandon.

Jonathan39:
You have poor reasoning like a Northerner. The North is Educationally disadvantaged but occupies most of the big office in Nigeria through Quota system, the same method should be applied here.

Can you provide statistics on this?

No you can't.

Even the way you write proves you to simply be a bigot.

Lolzzzzz... How Lagos has 52k poor and zamfara has over 1m is what I find laughable.. Dis jus confirms dat d Northern region is jus lazy

Why not also compared Akwa Ibom state 400k with Lagos state 52k?

Apart from the fact that the have robbed southern Nigeria of tourism potential by virtue of being a terrorist hot-spot.
I get jealous when I hear how much Ghana, let alone South Africa makes from tourism.

Billions and billions of dollars is pumped to the north yearly in the name of insecurity because some useless born troways refuse to hear word.

And now,.even the small that should come to the south is still channelled to the north because of poverty .

You are crazy if you think apc or even the pdp to an extent has the interest of southern Nigeria.

You are even more crazy if you think preserving one naijeria with the north is a smart idea for the long run.

These lunatics have cost furture generations far more than we can ever estimate.

But how comes Sokoto has the lowest
Sokoto that is sharing boundary with Zamfara

The earlier we go our separate ways,the better for each region.
During election intelligent Nigerians are forced to accept the outcome decision of this manipulated numbers. For allocation they always have the highest too,now for federal government relief fund,same thing all over again.
The question we should all ask ourselves is of what use are this people to us? They are not just a liability but they kept pulling us back from national progress

See what sentiment cause you! ...Poor comprehension

Bigflamie:
And where is Ebonyi state?

North is using fake poverty statistics to garner these country's resources to themselves. Trust these evil people at your own peril.

They are the richest in this country and still want us to believe their conspiracy.

bro what you say is so true am presently serving in the north this guys are making money but you see them looking so dirty & putting on the same cloth every day, they are pros when it comes to pretence & deceit

Thank God my state is not there. Ogun people are not poor

Every state has equal status before the law; in wealth or in poverty. If you allocate more funds to Zamfara with the claim that it has more poor households, you are encouraging their laxity and punishing the states with low poverty rate. The same baseless policy like Educationally Disadvantaged States bandied by the north to skew higher school admissions to the advantage of the north is repeated here in national resource distribution. COVID 19 is a global pandemic and everybody in every state in the country must be considered in any welfare package planned by the country. The fact that the minister for Humanitarian Affairs, Hajia Farouk is from Zamfara must not tilt the the distribution of national resources to their advantage. Those figures were arbitrarily allocated to justify the spending. The parameters that classify poor households in Nigeria has not been gazetted or published for each state in Nigeria and the criteria not known. Let the minister treat every state as an entity entitled to a specific amount of money as a palliative from government. Let the state government, in conjunction with the local government and the traditional rulers distribute these palliative among their poor citizen whose identity the minister does not know. Since there is NO reliable statistics on poor households in Nigeria, release equal palliatives to every state simple. A man who choses to have many children without a means of livelihood should not overburden his neighbours who planned their family sizes in accordance with their income size. If that list was for tax collection or income generation, Zamfara will be the least despite the abundance of mineral resources there. As long as we exalt resource sharing over productivity, encourage laxity over industry in our national life, the development of the country will remain a mirage.

This country ehn...

Petersamuel8:
I still think the best way to share the money is through BVN, the #20000 should be given to anyone with less than #500 in there account

its definitely not, what of people who are dead, people who are not in the country that are operating accounts in naija?

minister of disaster is from Zanfara and Buhari new inlaws

It is only in a society like ours, that industry is a crime. You are punished for being industrious.

Stimulus packages all over the world are for people who have lost income or wages due to the lockdown, these are people who have been contributing to the GDP of Nigeria with their small and medium scale businesses, people who pay taxes, not the ones who were already walking city to city with their begging bowl in hand.

There is an issue in this, in that the government has muddled social welfare package with bailout/stimulus package. The government is now using stimulus package budget to pay social welfare that should have always been part of our budget all these years...

What now happens to those who the stimulus package is meant for?

废话

No ogun state

What are the dates Parameters and geographical spread used in generating this data base.?
It’s worrisome that the Ministry whose responsibility Its has not b able come up a better spread that reach out to the poorest of the poor..Something urgent must be done for better accountability and transparency.

So, ur sense didn't tell u, u are being played here, this is a way of gathering most of the funds to the northerner but empty boasting won't let u see road.

OGUN STATE IS COMLETELY MISSING.

This is the only thread I have seen both Afonjah and Igbos lamenting and wailing together!!

This stupid government ehnn! The locked-down states are supposed to be focused on in sharing the palliative. 7 million households in Lagos, Abuja and Ogun should have 100 pct of the palliative.

if u ask me na who i go ask o

This isn't right and people shouldn't keep quiet. If that list is authentic, then can't be acceptable.

honest1480:
Nigerian government at present can never plan anything good for u and I or being honest in their planning and execution. Just keep your individual and earnest hustling tight.

When it comes to sharing money, North will quickly forget about federal character.. wow
Nigeria

fairfora:
what do you expect? Buhari is the most biased leader I've ever seen and he's not even hiding it. Jonathan never did all these when same people were attacking him left right and centre. The corruption in this government is worse than what Jonathan was accused of. What a leader!

I wish i could find a way to stop you from commenting,you dont even know what you are saying.do you read before you type? Earlier,you agreed that the north is poor,now you are saying the list is corrupted.how can you reconcile that
