Erosion2020:
Ur HBP will surely rise because of ur hatred of the innocent state

Haba na you wey to quote me up and down with tears that will soon suffer stroke. For me I will keep saying the bitter truth. 90% of ebonyi people are illiterates, they don't go to school. 80% are poverty inflicted. Alamajiri people

hotplate:

There's no development in ebonyi state. They don't even have ordinary drinking water. Most areas in ebonyi state are evil forests. Poverty rate in ebonyi is 80%.

Good step, but ebonyi should focus more in education and human capital development, these areas are responsible for ebonyi state having 80% poverty rate. Very shameful for a southern state

Davash222:
Osun ahead of Anambra in low poverty rate

How are they calculating this thing?

Leave osun state, the focus is on Ebonyi state

Erosion2020:
Until you mention where jump out from?...
Hope you are not and slowpoke because most people who are against Ebonyi state with its natural blessings are mostly imbeciles and jobless mofos

Why are you crying over a piece of truth. Ebonyi is an alamajiri state. You should focus on the poverty in your state. I don't even know why they put you miscreants in southern Nigeria

Four in every ten Nigerian (40.1 per cent) earn less than ₦377 per day, but in Sokoto, Taraba and Jigawa, about nine in ten earn that amount, according to the 2019 poverty and inequality report by Nigeria’s statistics bureau.

Following closely behind these states are Ebonyi and Adamawa, where eight in ten earn ₦377 daily; as well as Zamfara, Yobe and Niger, where seven in ten earn that amount.

On the flipside are states with low poverty rates: Lagos (5 in 100), Delta (6 in 100), Osun (9 in 100), Ogun (9 in 100), and Oyo (10 in 100).

The report shows that 15 of the 17 states below the national average (i.e. where the majority of residents are poor) are in the northern part of the country. South-eastern states Ebonyi (80%) and Enugu (58%) are the other two poorest states.

Kwara, Kogi, Benue and the FCT, all in the north-central, are the only other northern states below the nation’s poverty line. Borno State was not captured in the survey due to accessibility.

Also, five of the best seven states are in the south-west. Ekiti, the sixth state in the region, ranks 12th with 28 per cent poverty rate. South-south states, Edo and Delta, are the other two in the top seven.

This variation exists, the report showed, due to the size of the households in each region. Households with 2–4 people have a poverty rate of 17.88 per cent. Those with 5–9 people have 40.9 per cent, while those with 10–19 people 67 per cent rate of poverty.

“There must be a strategic state policy on population control,” Azeez Olaniyan, a conflict and security expert, said. “A country that seeks to lift people out of poverty must engage in active production, rather than remain a service economy.”

The report further disclosed that poverty was more prevalent in rural areas. The urban poverty rate was put at 18.04 per cent while the rural poverty rate was 52.10 per cent. That’s about three times poorer.

By profession, the report found that the poverty rate is lowest among salary earners and non-farm workers, while poverty is highest among households whose heads are engaged in agricultural jobs only.


Jide Ojo, a development consultant, said there is need to tackle insecurity in farming zones to make farming more lucrative.

Furthermore, the data showed that the more education the head of a family has, the lower the rate of poverty in that household.

Across the board in this regard, households led by women outperform men with a decent margin. In other words, women with higher education tend to liberate their households from poverty quicker than men with the same educational qualification.

Analysts believe this alludes to the need to educate the girl child. Mr Olaniyan explained that the government needs to invest in human capital development such as education and human welfare for its people to flourish.

NOBODY INVESTIGATES YOUR POVERTY.

Nigeria sef. When E-Money and his elder brother Kaycee Limpopo were in the street, police didn't investigate him oooo. Now he is rich, they want to investigate his wealth. Like my brother OC Emcee said: "Nobody investigates ur poverty".

I am happy that E-Money has the "required" Goodwill that set him free (within a few hours) from this aborted embarrassment. Emeka is a good man. He is different, benevolent and very humble. Some Igbos do not love themselves shaa. Sad to note that E-Money's travail was championed by a fellow Igbo man. Nya dibalu Chukwu shaa.

PORT HARCOURT is a disgrace for an oil rich city. See how waste is being evacuated from the streets of PORT HARCOURT. Officials of waste management uses baskets.

Gracchus:
Interesting, so why can't y'll stay in that Oguta that has better living conditions than Lagos? Do you love living in that overcrowded Lagos so much? Who in his right senses would leave a very serene a d highly developed place like Oguta and move to a dirty and chaotic place like Lagos? Isn't that topnotch foolishness?

Very good analogy

AsomughaChuks02:
The calculation was done with the whole of Imo state not only Owerri. The rural parts of Imo state is infested with poverty. Imo has the worst rural areas in south east. That is the reason why the poverty index of Imo is so high.

Very true

kettykings:
Any Person who believes this needs a brain surgery so Imo state that is the power house of Education in Nigeria , that is has the tourism business after lagos and Abuja, that has oil deposits and a Booming Aviation Business is now poorer that Osun and Oyo that are living off stomach infrastructure funds , ritual forest proceeds and Marijuana Plantation income .

Which tourism? Please don't mistake booming prostitution market and cheap hotels to tourism. Any tourist site in Imo state? No. Tourists only know of Cross River that has a lot of tourist attractions.
