Former Presidential spokesperson, Reno Omokri has stated that adult poverty is a choice. He further recalled how he sold rabbits to pay his law school fees in 1998, IgbereTV reports.

The former Presidential spokesperson tweeted:

"In 1998, I was preparing for Law School and did not want my parents to pay my fees. I bought a male and female rabbit. The way their population increased shocked me. I sold rabbits to pay my Law School fees. Almost all adult poverty is a choice!"

Enabling environment helps people to thrive.

This man thinks he is always right...

I agree partially with this

Poverty is a disease that is not palatable and makes one seem inconsequential in the game of life.

There's a force that backs people to get wealth, either evil or good, but it's usually better to side with good.
the good force is God, for the good book says it is He(God) that gives power to get wealth.

May God push us to the place of wealth and favour in Jesus name.

I agree. People who can not cater for 1 child but want 9 kids, you will all die in poverty. Keep deceiving yourselves that children are gifts from God because God does not gift children to rich people with 4 kids max.

You are only making N50k monthly but you want to live like someone earning N300k, you will die in poverty.

All those hoes and urgent 2kers won't like this

This is true to a great extent. Truth is that alot of educated Nigerian youths feel they deserve NNPC jobs straight outta school. Most of them didn't believe they'd still be stranded five to ten heads after school because the Nigerian education system will make you believe that once you're educated, you're good to go. I know someone who's in a place where if you put your mind deeply into work, you'd make at least 3,000 almost everyday but he has always berated that same place and business. The same business that some have with diligence over the years built houses, married and are training their children in school while that big for nothing guy is still going to church everyday believing that God will change his story. His belief is that he'll start from the top. I always tell people to do what they can to survive until they get to where they really want to. You should never be ashamed of doing anything legal that brings money to your pocket but then trust some funny Nigerian youth. Once they're educated, they feel everything should fall in place automatically for them. Sometimes I wonder why people in the city complain and those in the villages don't. Sometimes it's not about the location but the man in it. Someone once said that there's money on the ground if only you can bend down to pick it. This is one reason why the igbo tribe seems not to be too stranded in Nigeria.

At least that year people still get money buy rabbit...

Make meself book space

.

An enabling environment is still needed.

We leave in a country where it's hard for business to scale more than certain level.

We leave in a country where u can have your business and u re still leaving in poverty.

There are business owners who don't have up to hundred thousand in savings/personal income.

Blame yourself , be responsible for yourself

Una don start again
