If living below $1.90 a day is considered poor, more than 70% of Nigerian populace would be considered to be poor.

This Peter Obi uses both accurate and inaccurate statements to discredit Nigeria to be politically correct even when it is glaring he is wrong.

Bamibor:


Stop being intentionally myopic. Comparatively, the rate of poverty in Nigeria is way higher than what it is in India. India has an estimated population of 1.3 billion people with just less than 10% (100 million plus) living below the poverty line while Nigeria with a population of 200 million has over 40% (above 90 million) living on extreme poverty. Do the maths yourself and stop sounding stupid for sentimental or partisan reasons. Nigeria is on a very steep precipice and with people like yourself who will rather play the Ostrich than call out failure for what it is, it only a matter of time before the country is consumed by its failures. Cheers!

yes, I serviced in the North and tour almost all the northern States due to the nature of my job.... The rate of poor people is high... South west own is worst seeing a healthy thug begging for small money makes me wonder if they're mentally OK

I won't reply any mention

How on earth does India, which has over 1.2 billion people in their enclave account for only 100 million people in extreme poverty while Nigeria with only just under 200 million people having over 90 million people in abject poverty line?
And you’re here doing fact checking. Otolo gbagbukwe gi there. Thes kind of mod are the reason why SW and Edo are now crying out of Fulani menace. People that will sow a scarecrow cloth and portray as a human. This is a vile and evil write up with an intent to reduce to nothing the dire situation of bad governance and societal menace we face as a nation. Must we chase shadows and leave the substance of which Peter Obi’s message was all about?
Be guided Nigerians lest this lion we feed turns around one day and take us for a meal

Another Afo warrior write up

bluefilm:


Oga, what exactly did you SERVICE in the north?

lol, I serviced you

pfadom:
Keep deceiving yourself. Have you been to India or have interaction with Indians? I have first hand information on poverty in India. Many school leavers are jobless and Indians are leaving for greener pastures in millions.

I am apolitical. You are entitled to your myopic opinion. Good luck.

even if Peter Obi was wrong by saying we are number 1 on that list, it does not change the fact that Nigeria is one of the poverty capitals of the world...

Nonsense write up by an paid apc urchin... I can bet my left balls that the poverty level in Nigeria is way higher than India even with the population of India.. Nigeria is a cursed enclaved shit hole.

Who vetted this indices in the above statement to certify them as accurate. Very large population of China and India are swimming in abject poverty. Given what the China and India have in terms of technological advancement, it is foolhardy to stray into such comparison. China and India have been given more by technologically advanced countries than Nigeria.

[s]Your analysis is not complete

If India and China has a combined population of over 2b and the extreme poverty is 200m people... While Nigeria, with a population of 200m has 50 percent in poverty class then we have more poor people in reality when compared to our population than the two nations combined[/s]

archangel1:




Comparatively, do your maths very well by using the principle of ratio or percentage as it relates to the total population per country. you will discover that Nigeria flop Wella. Oga Peter is over right.
