PoliticsList of 10 Poorest States In Nigeria 2019 by Pantoo(op):
Here are the top 10 poorest states in Nigeria 2019 according to data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS)

Nigeria is a country blessed with mineral resources and is made up of 36 states. These states are meant to be productive based on their available natural resources, and are meant to have a strong and honest government capable of managing these natural resources to generate its revenue.

Poorest states in Nigeria But the reverse is the case as some states are down to poverty by 70 percent. However, these poor states in Nigeria became poor due to bad governance, mismanagement of state resources or security issues as the case may be.

We have listed the poorest states in the country according to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, using infrastructural development, state of economy, literacy level, security and governance to compile this list of 10 poorest states in Nigeria this 2018.

Top Ten (10) Poorest States in Nigeria 2019
1. Sokoto state
Sokoto state is rated as the poorest state in Nigeria, ranking 81.2% on poverty level. Its harsh climate conditions has made its a no go area and has prevented foreigners and foreign investors to come for investment in the state. It is also the seat of the Caliphate.

2. Kastina state
Located at the deepest part of the north western area of Nigeria, Kastina state made it in the list of poorest states in Nigeria because it has fewer or no solid investment or sector that generates revenue for the state.

3. Adamawa state
Due to the frequent attack from Boko Haram terrorists, Adamawa state’s economy has crippled as a result of its citizens running away from the state because of safety. It has affected the state poorly to a poverty level of 74.2%.

4. Gombe state
Gombe state which is located at the north-eastern part of Nigeria is also facing its own peril in security with crippled economy to a 73.2% poverty level.

5. Jigawa state
A state situated at the north-western part of Nigeria and basically populated with the Hausa/Fulani tribe. With low literacy level and low economic growth, the poverty level of Jigawa state is at 72.1%.

6. Plateau state
Although, plateau state is one of the highest populated state in Nigeria and has some tourist attractions, It has also suffered a long timely tribal conflict which has carelessly destroyed its economy by 71%

7. Ebonyi state
Unfortunately this is the only state in the South-East that falls under the top poorest states in Nigeria with poverty rate of 70.6% due to poverty, illiteracy and bad government.

8. Bauchi state
According to the National Bureau of Statistics, Bauchi was ranked among states that are poor.

Statistics shows that majority of the residents in this area lack the basic amenities of life and it is a war torn zone. The mortality rate recorded after the various insurgent attack is overwhelming.

9. Kebbi state
Kebbi is a state in north-western Nigeria. Its capital is Birnin Kebbi. The state also listed among the 10 states that have the highest poverty rate in the country. Its rating is 72%.

10. Zamfara state
With 70.8 percent poverty rate, Zamfara has been ranked by the NBS among the poorest states in the country 2019. Strife, disease and hunger affects the residents of this state a lot.

Wrapping up
A lot has been said above concerning these states, from bad government to negligence, lack of jobs which causes unemployment, poverty, etc. We wonder how these affected states will fare in the future.

Niger has been ranked the state with the lowest poverty rate, closely followed by Osun state with 37.9 percent and Ondo 45.7 percent. Bayelsa and Lagos both have less than 50 percent poverty rate, with 47 and 48.6 percent respectively.

Footballers are rich, you can also add that they are very rich and yes! everyone will agree with you. Especially those footballers that once plied their trades in the top European Leagues as they are paid in thousands of hard foreign currency.

Sadly not all of these footballers have a happy-ending after their football careers and some of them have gone totally broke living in abject poverty.

Today at PEE Tv, we will be taking a look at 5 African stars (in no particular order) that went totally broke after their illustrious footballing career.

2. Wilson Oruma:

3. Eric Djemba Djemba

4. Ifeanyi Udeze

5. Mohammed Yusuf

If you are a student of Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria or you are aspiring to be, you might want to know the history of ABU Zaria. Here below are things you may not know about your beloved school.

1_Did You Know ABU Is A Creation Of The Ashby Commission Report of 1959?

Ahmadu Bello University is a creation of the Ashby Commission report of 1959 which recommended the addition of some new universities in each of the then Nigeria’s three regions as well as the capital, Lagos. The Ashby commission report recommendations gave a new impetus and direction that ultimately led to the creation of the university of Northern Nigeria in Zaria.

The University took over the facilities of the Nigerian College of Arts, Science and Technology at Samaru outside Zaria and was named after Sir Ahmadu Bello, the Sardauna of Sokoto and Premier of Northern Nigeria.
2_A.B.U Has The Largest Campus In Nigeria

Ahmadu Bello University has been adjudged the largest university in Nigeria, in Sub-saharan Africa and second largest in Africa coming behind Cairo University, Egypt. This information is howvever, due to land usage by the university. Ahmadu Bello University has only 7,000 hectares of land, while the University of Ilorin has 75,000 hectares.

But ABU tops this list on the merits of land usage and not the area of land owned. This is one of the most interesting things about the school, and the management is not relenting as they are pushing to increase the land usage by the development of the new multi-billion Naira project called Ahmadu Bello phase 2, which had already started and will enormously increase the size of the Samaru campus.


3_Did You Know ABU Has Only 14 VCs Till Now?

Ahmadu Bello University has a Chancellor as the ceremonial head of the University, while the Vice-Chancellor is the Chief executive and Academic officer of the University. The 14th and current Vice-Chancellor, Professor Ibrahim Garba, took office on 1st May 2015. Below is the list of all ABU Vice- Chancellors (1961-till date):

Professor Norman Alexander 1961-1966
Professor Ishaya Audu 1966-1975
Professor Iya Abubakar 1975-1978
Professor Oladipo Akikugbe 1978-1979
Professor Ango Abdullahi 1979-1986
Professor Adamu N Muhammad 1986-1991
Professor Daniel Soror 1991-1995
Major General Mamman Kontagora 1995-1998
Professor Abdullahi Mahadi 1999-2004
Professor Shehu Usman Abdullahi 2004-2009
Professor Jarlath Udoudo Umoh 2009-2009
Professor Aliyu Muhammed 2009-2010
