Bros even if the herdsmen and farmers didn't start during his tenure, he promised us security was one of his main priority, now it's as if security went from 4 to -1
All buhari promises are yet to be fulfilled, or maybe he did in the north

I witnessed what went down during the last Census and I can confirm that the numbers were mostly fabricated.

Skimpledawg:
Great discourse devoid of unnecessary bants and name callings.

Larride was right when he said Farmers and herdsmen clash did not start in 2015. My NGO applied and got a grant to partner with NIWANO PEACE FOUNDATION to charter peace and conflict resolution in some states in Nigeria. From our office research while applying, we found out these clashes dated way back as 2014 if I remember very well but was not properly documented and under reported.

About Data and its authenticity in Nigeria, I only worked in one section (SACA) and cannot vouch for the others. But just to be clear, my then boss was known in the state so as the M/E Officer, I worked directly with the state's M/E Officer and together we sent data reports to Abuja and also go there to defend it. So, I was exposed to alot of data gathered from hundreds of other NGOs in the state.

Data isn't a variable to work with in Nigeria to be sincere. It is distorted from time to time.

@ bolded, I think this is a wrong choice of word.

You cannot claim they didn’t use enough sample test and at the same time claim the figures they release are padded. You can say you think they didn’t have sufficient sample to pool from but categorically saying they are padding figures they release is a bit of an overstretch since you yourself don’t even have any data we can compare it with.

If you check our unemployment rate, you will notice they are rising on an annual basis. If you say they are padding the figures, are they padding it to increase the figures yearly?

larride:
@ bolded, the pooling sample of 800k was in 2014, it’s definitely not going to be the same sample size they will use for 2019. I don’t think it’s right to claim they are still using the 2014 sample to derive their stat for 2019.

IMF and World Bank do partner with relevant agencies to conduct their research especially for planning purposes. That’s why they have their representatives in each member state.

Ibime:
UK unemployment rate is measured via a random sample of 100,000 adults so 800,000 in Nigeria is OK as a sample size.

What Naija doesn't have is a sense-check mechanism like in the West they also track the no of unemployment benefit claimants.

TBH, you cannot argue with any figure produced in Naija because what really defines unemployment? Whilst the average Nigerian girl baking cake and chinchin in her house after NYSC may describe herself as unemployed, one can argue she is self-employed. I am guessing if the statisticians call her as part of the 800k sample and she says she is making chinchin, they will mark her down as employed. There is no profit figure you must hit to class yourself either way. However what I know is that very few Nigerians are gainfully employed.

larride:
Fixed.


Looking at the screenshot, it talks about what they start about how they began collecting data for the unemployment rate. I believe unemployment rate will be gotten from the labor force. Maybe Ibime or Nihilistjnr can shed more light on that.


The screenshot was talking about what happened in 2014, a lot of things will have changed and some things improved upon. Data collection is no joke. Almost all data that world bank, IMF or any other body post about Nigeria are majorly sourced from the NBS which means to an acceptable degree, their data are reliable.

larride:
I don’t work in NBS so I don’t know the parameters they use.

Moreover that figure is not even from NBS, it’s from Statica.

larride:
Quick one, when they say Nigeria is the poverty capital of the world, did you bother to ask them where they get the data from?

According to you, there’s no data anywhere so how do we believe the poverty rate and other stats in Nigeria?

hardeycute:
You're very correct at the bolded, I don already open tabs checking his figures. I had planned to do that of Boko Haram figures, I think the killings during this present administration is even much compared to last administration.


Na Subtitle wey I download wey no gree work make me come check here back.

odizeey:

I don't understand the unemployment rate, 6.11% of total workforce abi na wetin

So we have just a little of over 9 million people unemployed in Nigeria (of 150 million). Under-employment nko

I imagine it'll taste good since it's beans.

There's even a Brazilian version of it called frejon ( I would have made it if not for the process) which is mostly eaten on Good Friday.
Some parts of Brazil share similar culture with the Yoruba people.
