Brunosamel:
You speak fact the place NYSC posted me was in a very remote village and it baffled me to see an Igbo man doing business over there, things I couldn't find in other stores I only find them in Igbo man's shop. Igbos are built different and are not political inquisitive they make money and care less about political positions.

Thank u my brother.

Kogi has population of just 4 million but almost 3million are poor. What rubbish

INDOMIE9090:
population of SOUTHEAST is around 22m and 10m are living with in poverty
That means 50% of the population are poor

lol, they use to claim Lagos as their handiwork, but now, they all desist from Lagos. Was expecting igbos to lay claim to half of Lagos poor people since Lagos was made by them

pinkPUSSY:
This is the number of poor people in Nigeria in each Geo political zone

Ori e baje. Wht baseless truth are u brandishing. Its a fact that the south east is the smallest state both in size and polulation.So what u proud about

do i even have time for Tinubu urchins
what am i even doing with Tinubu urchins

totit:


No wonder you didn't include the link to your post and of course, the mod just push it to the front page. In your attempt to cover the main and true stats, you omit Lagos which happens to be the least poverty state followed by Ondo.

Lmao

No,Ondo is the least followed by Lagos..

INDOMIE9090:
population of SOUTHEAST is around 22m and 10m are living with in poverty

Also to remind him that most people in the south east are actually of Igbo extraction. Whereas in the southwest, its a mixure of all the tribes.

Hence, the population of poor Yoruba, is the lowest among the 3 major tribes

DaniDani:
I am an Igbo man. I have watched the trends in development, growth, advancement in all facets of life in Nigeria and found out that Igbos and yorubas are the best thing to happen to Nigeria. Remove Igbo and Yoruba, Nigeria will be competing with Niger and Chad in all negative indices. Quite unfortunate that Igbos and yorubas are their own worse enemies. One of the reason of this enmity is the Yoruba Muslim factor in the south west and the Igbo man's over inflated ego in the south east. The poverty range discrepancy between south east and south west is merely 0.5%, which means that this two regions are doing well while the rest of Nigeria is very far behind them.

Please park yourself in one corner and remove yoruba from your trash comment because we have nothing in common. all you people do is eat crumbs from our tables. ibos do not contribute anything in nigeria apart from stealing, drugs, armed robbery, scam, prostitution, terrorism, kidnapping, importing, selling sub-standard goods and all other evil things that you guys do. I do not accept this data, because yorubaland is a host to all the poor people all over nigeria looking for a better life and this is why I extremely hate this unilateral system of government that we are currently practising in nigeria. This should have been done based on tribe, if ibos are running from their unfortunate land aka "dot in a circle" to yorubaland for greener pastures, definitely they will increase the poverty rate in Yorubaland, therefore this data is trash. by the way we don't have anything called yoruba Muslims, we are all yorubas, that is what comes first. the more you children of hate try
to divide us the more your iboland we continue to be destabilised. let me tell you for a fact here that in every yoruba household we have both religions and we always laugh at you clowns whenever you show fake love to our Christians and deploy your hate on our Muslims. we are all working together to f**K you people up.

Ritchiee:

No,Ondo is the least followed by Lagos..

Abio
Some of us that have accessed the stats knows better but the NL Mod pushes the Op to the frontpage without the link or verification.

Lmao

totit:


The least poverty region is SW. Two SW make the top 5 but you intentionally and cornily twisted the stats and removed Lagos and that is why you failed to provide the link to your table.

How can I keep spoonfeeding you ?

Visit TheCableIndex on twitter..

Smh

pinkPUSSY:
People that have ruled Nigeria for over Donkey years are the poorest...

It's a pity!!





Who's this one again and what's he saying ?

Always twisting and switching narrative to suit his jargons...
Political and tribal banters aside, I am very sure that there are so many Igbos on your street, single out ten Igbos on your street and equally single out another ten people from your tribe, jusxtapose them, compare and contrast their lifestyles and check which set is doing fine...

No dey come online to deceive yourself to feel Ok..
Talking of population of ethnic groups in Nigeria, after hausa people who have the highest members in Nigeria, with percentage of 27.4%, next is Igbos which is 14.1%, following by Yoruba 13.9% then fulani and the rest.. Accept your position in poverty rate in and population in Nigeria as well and move on..

You forgot to add to the understanding of @inoki247 that presence of SEasterners in their zone added to the advantage as recorded. In other words, if SEasterners were not in those zones, their poverty rating would be worse off.

Who came up with these figures and what are the modalities that were employed to reach such guess numbers?
TRASH

Such figures cannot be based on feelings an sentiments, scientific methodologies have to be employed to arrive at such conclusions..
These seems like figures from some tribal deranged fools somewhere in Nigeria.

Provide the link any fool can make up those figure. Lmao. I know the link you are referring to and accessed it and that's why I found you twisted it all and remove lagos.

South East has the lowest.....

Abeg don't place Igbo along with Yoruba.

Nigeria will cease to exist the moment Igbo Race leaves this country and that cannot be said of Yoruba.

Multidimensional poverty rate takes other factors into consideration in addition to the regular indices. The fact that people still cook with charcoal and firewood will put them in this category, not necessarily because they earn less than $1 per day.
All in all, multidimensional or not, this is worrisome.

Racoon:
The statistics are clear. Proudly onye dot.Ka Chineke zaputa umunneya.

The Statistics is Incorrect.
The SOUTHEAST should be 20% and not 49.5%.
Individual DIASPORA statistics will put Igbos at 10%,

The most marginalised is SE

Yet, the least Poor is SE..

All the same. for poverty to reduce to the barest minimum, VOTE WISELY

VOTE OBI-DATTI

Here are the comprehensive stats twisted by the Op hence he omitted Lagos from the Table.


133 million Nigerians poor – NBS
THE National Bureau of Statistics, NBS yesterday said that 133 million (63 per cent) Nigerians are suffering from multidimensional poverty, with children constituting more than half of poor people in the country.

This means that two (2) out of every three (3) Nigerians are poor and experience just over one-quarter of all possible deprivations in terms of health, education, living standards, and work and shocks.

The NBS disclosed this in the 2022 Multidimensional Poverty Index, MPI, Report launched on Thursday in Abuja.

The MPI is the result of the 2022 Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) Survey carried out by NBS and development partners.

The survey was a collaborative effort between the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), the National Social Safety-Nets Coordinating Office (NASSCO), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), and the Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative (OPHI).

A breakdown of the dimensions of poverty used for the MPI includes: Nutrition, Food insecurity, Time to healthcare, School attendance, Years of schooling and School lag.

Others are Water, Water reliability, Sanitation, Housing materials, Cooking fuel, Assets, Unemployment, Underemployment, Security shock

Among other things the report showed that 65% of poor people—86 million—live in the North, while 35%—nearly 47 million— live in the South.

“Multidimensional poverty is higher in rural areas, where 72% of people are poor, compared to 42% of people in urban areas.

“Approximately 70% of Nigeria’s population live in rural areas, yet rural areas are home to 80% of poor people, and their intensity of poverty is also higher: 42% in rural areas compared to 37% in urban areas.

Geopolitical Zone

“Sixty-five percent of poor people—86 million—live in the North, while 35%—nearly 47 million – live in the South.

In the least-poor zone, the South West, the MPI of 0.151 shows that poor people experience 15% of possible deprivations, while in North East and North West, the MPI of 0.324 shows they experience over 32% of possible deprivations.

Below is the table from NBS

Shut it. South East remain poverty capital of the South by percentage of population which is the right way to judge.

Meanwhile, Racoon I'm happy you're proud of being poverty capital of the South

pinkPUSSY:


So SE is no more poverty capital in the south?, this time around you had to fabricate another jargons to keep going...U go dey fine

Elemosho478:



If all the poor Igbo in South west that hustle with wheel barrows, hawk fan milk, sell meat Pie and puff puff return to the East. We will get the true representation of the East being the poorest region in the south.

First ask the Igbo billionaires in Lekki, Island, Ikeja, Ikoyi to relocate to the east.

KosiGee:
Correct your Igbo mister...
Zaputa....sweep off
Zoputa....save

Umunneya....siblings
Umu nke ya/umuya...His children.

Thanks man

That's why no sensible person should respond to some comments on nairaland. Some commenters are battling with poverty and won't hesitate to take out their frustrations on other people. The hatred and bigotry in their comments are the dead giveaway.

/

Whenever it concerns poverty, disease n illiteracy they'll score the highest so that they can keep syphoning all the grants and funds assigned to such projects. And these are same people that want to rule over the most educated ones in the society.
