So true

Ok

He has a point. poverty is relative. even in Saudi Arabia there are poor citizens.

You no lie

So true

This is the daftest economic analysis I have ever read. One will assume the self-servicer was going to refer to decades of financial misappropriations, clueless leadership, ignorance, lack of education, a repressive culture and so on. But this numbskull is talking about marriage. Oga o!

The reason is simple.

North replace education with religion

Nonsense. Education is the key. Until the North takes Education really seriously they will remain behind.

Thanks sir
You hit the nail on the head.Education, Stark illiteracy, fanatic religious indoctrination/intolerance are the bane of development among these people.

Poverty exists because the rich need the poor to remain poor for them to remain rich.
They have a strong ally in Islam.
You see that's why the prosperity preachers we all love to hate and deride are useful.
They tell the average Christian youth that he's deserving of a good life and he'll get it.
But for the Muslim, all they ever hear is that whatever happens to a man in life is Allah's will.
He should accept it and focus on getting to aljannah in the afterlife by faithfully carrying out Islamic injunctions no matter how inconvenient.
That indoctrination inadvertently leads to a psychological acceptance of one's condition.

How come Southern muslims or Arabs are not as poor as the Northern Nigeria.?The problem of the North is their social structure.It is hard to change your social ladder because Fulani are at the top of Hausa social ladder making it difficult for Hausas to achieve greatness and true freedom.Conquered people only eat crumbs from the tables of their oppressors.

First of all, Arabs are generally poor. You're looking at the optics of the rich among them. Below them is debilitating poverty as well.
Secondly, southern Muslims live in a westernised society, or should I say Christianised. That cultural mix is what has led them to also want a better life and rejection by their northern counterparts as fake Muslims. For example, pre-colonial Muslims attend mission schools because Awolowo made Western education compulsory, while in the north, their elites led by Ahmadu Bello taught them that the white man's ways will rob them of the purity of their religion and they should stay away from it.
Your allusion to Fulani on Hausa is very correct. May I ask what tool the Fulani used in achieving this?

you are very intelligent. I like you

This girl is a thoughtful girl and she is so right

Which northerners in his/her right is senses will marry a poor person, if the poster of that garbage want to be free from the chain of poverty, let him/her go and hustle hard, what is bad if he lift other family from poverty. Get rich or die trying.
God bless the northern oligarchs

You are a breath of fresh air!
Imagine that very simplistic deduction!

All these go and hustle talk sef,
These days the new talk is 'you better defend yourself'
Makes me think what is the point of the one Nigeria rubbish people keep defending?

With the advantages northerners have ...the average northerner should make at least $15,000 a year ...

The first reason northerners are poor are
1) very large family , a northerner who earns probably 4 million a year from farming n trading would marry 4 wife's n 30 children there is no way they can be happy

Compare fulanis who marry primarily one wife to hausas that marry 4 wife

The fulanis encourage hausas to marry many wife's n have many children ... because it's a win win ...it grows northern population which is good for election and keeps hausas poor making them easy to control

2) early marriage ....the earlier u get married the lesser the chance u would be financially stable and the higher the chance u would have many wife and large family

3) lack of education ,don't need to explain much here

4) religion ....this is the singular tool fulanis have mastered , they tell u that u should accept your financial situation as the will of Allah , that u were meant to be poor


This I think are the major reason northerners are poor

What shall it profit a man to be born broke and die broke. With money you can defend yourself, apply for police, military or private guide or escort, you can do the best charm money can buy and others, why defend my self when I can pay people to so that from me at the detriment of their own life.
God bless the northern oligarchs.

An average northerner is extremely daft. An economic analysis postulating that poverty is due to marriage unions is taking dumbness to a new low. Quota system has really robbed those folks of their reasoning ability (if they ever had one).

There are no poor citizens in Saudi Arabia. Only the foreigners can be or refugee. It's impossible for a Saudi citizen to be poor, don't just say anything anyhow

Great write up!

Great insight!!

In SouthEast, anyone can become who they want, mostly without the support of others.
We don't practice life long service. We believe people should be free after service. Service is an opportunity to learn and become like the master. Learning to be of value to society is key.

The SouthEast has less than 20 Unity school, but the operate a system of Hardwork and believe in God for property.

I will say this, it is purely religious. This government has done next to nothing for most people in the South especially the SouthEast. However, the men of God have helped people attain self actualization through their God given potential.

Some may say it is education, but I can point you alot of billionaires from the SouthEast who have little or no formal education.

The key is the human mindset.
You can be anything, you want to be without commiting crimes or oppressing others.

adadike:

She's not so right. Education and religious fanatism is the only reason why Northerners are swallowing in ocean of poverty. The few who are educated have opportunity or avenue of breaking off from the shackles of poverty.

My point is this madam economics professor, it should not even be a reason or factor at all. Ok?
