What do you mean by "poor"? lack of money or lack of buying power of currency?
Poverty is synonymous with lack.

Africans are poor, i believe it has to do with the type of economic principles we practice in this part of the world.

I believe in the policy of opening up the economy and allowing competition, encouraging people to create businesses and creating policies for small businesses to grow.

when i compare Nigeria with India, i see that Indian have been prosperous even with its large population because of the mercantile mentality of many Indians, this mentality allow people to take more risk in creating businesses and also help to create employment for its people.

You are NOT an African. You and the OP are impostors and deceivers who have come here to instigate Africans to blame themselves for problems which your western leaders have brought on the world.

I think it will be nice if we logically debate this topic instead of being emotional, the data is not in your favour.

About 60% of the world poorest people live in Africa.

There are millions of children going to bed hungry in America every day you devil.

Millions of Americans are homeless and sleep on the streets, in one of the world's most unequal societies.

There are blacks harassed, brutalised, and shot on the streets daily by US police.

Homicide rate is 60,000 a year in America.

There is a terrible gun crisis there, and people walk into a shop and buy a gun with no background checks.

Opioid addiction claims 70,000 lives a year in America, your country.

You have MORE THAN ENOUGH ISSUES in your country to deal with, so get lost.

If you care about 'Africans', deal with the structural racism against the 40 million people of African descent in your country before coming here to cry crocodile tears for Africa.

Because we are not a thinking people,
Infact critical thinking is discouraged,
Take Nigeria for example, very few would listen to the man that says Nigeria needs to be broken to manageable units, but they would gladly listen to the man that says all Nigeria needs is fasting and prayers!

But this generation would continue to ask the right questions until Africa frees itself from its own self induced entrapment,

Ignorant dunce. 95% of Igbos are dark-skinned like other Africans, and that dark skin is caused by MELANIN which is a chemical blessing from the Almighty to protect you from the sunrays of living on the world's hottest continent.

Dark skin is not something to shun, but something to be thankful and grateful to your Creator for.

The 60,000 Americans slaughtered by guns did not have any ''government safety net''.

The 70,000 Americans killed by drug overdose had no ''govt safety net''.

The blacks routinely killed and brutalized by US police did not have any government safety net when their killers are let off scot-free by racist all-white juries.

The average African works ten times harder than the average American.

Your country America is only rich because you went around invading, looting, enslaving, and genociding the world to enrich yourselves.

Unlike you, we in Africa have to do it the hard way, by sheer hard work, and not by stealing from, destroying, bombing, and robbing other nations like Americans did.

Now get lost and stay lost.

Exploitation of resources by internal and external sources
Tribalism

Foreign neocolonialism

Mentally lazy that is all.

The European male is a doer. He sees problems and tries to find solutions.
The African male finds the easy way out of whatever problem he encounters if he is unable to ignore it.

For example, black people leaving their already green lands and taking a dangerous route to Europe in search of greenner pastures cheesy.

The ONLY solution ''the European male'' knows is to steal, loot, invade, bomb, colonise, and enslave, to get rich at the expense of other human beings.

That is the ONLY reason the ''European male'' is rich today, and the rest of the world struggling, so you can take your racist horse shite and stick it right up there where the sun doesn't shine, you nasty European male who came to Nairaland to push his vile, neo-nazi, white supremacist vomit.

I'm not your 'brother', you satanic thing.

A thief will always find traitors to help him steal anywhere he goes.

That is no excuse.

The Europeans slaughtered billions of people across the entire world, not just Africa, to enrich themselves.

In the lands they conquered, they 'educated' the people to hate their culture and heritage, and imposed locally trained stooges to help them loot those nations further even after granting them 'independence'.

Those African leaders who refused to cooperate, like Patrice Lumumba, Gen Murtala Muhammed, Thomas Sankara, Kwame Nkrumah, Laurent Gbagbo, and many others, they assassinated or removed from power, leaving room only for thieves and looters to rule Africa.

So you can take your 'blame the victim' GARBAGE and save that for your fellow slaves who have been TRAINED by your white master to ''not blame them'' for their numerous crimes against humanity. But only to blame yourselves.


I know exactly where the blame lies for the world's troubles, and it is NOT in the hands of African people, who were minding THEIR business, and building THEIR civilizations in peace and prosperity, and with ZERO corruption, before these vandals came in with guns and bombs to destroy everything we had.

Now we are starting afresh, and you've come with your racist trash claiming there is something inherently wrong with us?

I don't think so. TAKE THAT CRAP AND STUFF IT UP YOUR ASS.

Plus you know what?

One thing your evil masters that sent you will realise one day is that this Earth belongs to the Creator, and HE will see to it that the race which destroyed, enslaved, and impoverished other races to enrich itself, will itself be destroyed.

Revelation 13:10 KJV -
He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword.
