North sha!

Poverty is far beynd dis figures...o boi lyf no easy again oh

We really need to merge some of these states. The numbers are crazy. How can we justify this kind of poverty while running full governments with security votes and convoys? One day the poor will eat the rich. Beware.

things ain't easy o...d concoction rice am cooking sef dis days sef no get groundnut oil talkless of maggi or egg...only rice and hausa pepper...things are good make i no talk oda tin....tank God 4 my neighbor free wifi wey i dey hack na hin i dy use check nairaland with my infinix hot jejely

Northerners have spent more time in power yet they are still very poor
Please what's osun doing up there

Chai! See my Akwa Ibom o,but we try small

Cc; ceema1 ceema

Until now, northerners believed development would be doing the whitemen who own development equipments, a favour.

If most north weren't Islamic, they'd have been better off than what they are now.

Some are still foolish though

Northerners have had presidency for long but it never stopped them from being the poorest

Interesting

That was 2014 when country never hard

Osun should be 30% ,it cant be less than ondo and kwara,impossicant.

Btw how come a state will have 90% poverty rate?

i dont bliv this stats

Those bahd guys from 24 to last....same people,same rulling the country edges...poverty is a bitch,hustle,struggle keep trying... Thumb up to ibo brothers can't be spoon fed,seeing another state up there that kill themselves queuing for 200 hundred nira..how come?

Akwa Ibom suffering it shows we need to more private sector growth in economy this civil civil life is no good. Hopefully the industrial city, port and general industrialization policy kicks off soon.

Does anyone find it interesting NE has lower poverty rate than NW?

regional breakdown

1.) SW-19.3%
2.) SS-25.2%
3.) SE-27.4%
4.) NC- 42.6%
5.) NE-76.8%
6.) NW-81.1%

Have you been to Osun b4?

Poverty rate indeed
Thank you PDP for the embezzlements. Una weh don

Despite the undue proliferation of twenty new states and hundreds of local government areas in the north by northern soldiers, an act which resulted in most of Nigeria's oil resources from the south going to the north;

despite north holding apex political power for about 42 years of Nigeria's 56 years of independence, northern states still lag far behind. What could be the cause?

This list is better ignored as being unauthentic because no Nigerian state has a poverty rate of less than 50%. even the so called LAGOS has more poor people among it's population.

Other than that it seem SW is best followed by SE followed by SS eyeballing numbers.

You believe this fake report where Osun ranks better than other states excluding Lagos

Osun people are very hardworking maaahn. They farm a lot and they travel a lot too especially the people of Ejigbo

The South West Has always been The most Prosperous region of Nigeria since like day 1.
And It looks like it isn't relinquishing that position anytime soon.

That is why it has always been a magnet for Nigerians from everywhere. Even in an hinterland Yoruba state like Osun, you would marvel at the diversity of Nigerians from everywhere living there, from Ibo 2 by 2 shopkeepers to Urhobo palm oil workers, to Ebira and Idoma (Agatu) farmers, to Hausa petty traders to Edo civil servants, to Ibibio domestic workers. It is even more magnified in places like Ibadan, Ondo, Ogun and Lagos.

(respect to all the hardworking groups above)

Did u mean OSUN with hundreds of IDP camp is ahead of anambra and abia? Smh. This must be a list compiled by Aregberascals Usun defender newspaper.

Odingo1:

You people can chest beat a lot under Nigeria umbrella,with all this,why is it that your people are so scared of self determination.

What's this one saying?
The Master chest beaters and empty barrel tribe know themselves.... And it surely ain't Yorubas.

Meanwhile, Isima the fatso operating the African facts zone account on twitter has been misleading folks with his account that Anambra has the least poverty rate in Nigeria

Lol where did I celebrate at you dull child? I actually said my state looks bad and needs to improve. Btw SS not far behind Statisticly so I guess that makes your region trash aswell. The fact that this list offends you shows that facts hurt your feeling. Like I told other guy go cry to the UN.

PS. You guys can look at how they deverived stats and debunk them. We'll be waiting to see your counter arguements. I doubt u will since wailing and strawmen arguements are your only skill.

Anambra propaganda machinery is on overdrive dude. Dem go don begin flood U.N with enough petitions in protest against this report's conclusions. No be so Soludo recently out-of-nowhere claimed the state has the '4th' largest economy? This report is obviously a big blow to their collective ego. You never see anything.
