To think that Abacha was a better manager of the economy than your drug baron Tilimgbu...
Oh well! If only we refused to buy into your NADECO propaganda..

Even MC Olumo will be a better Governor of Anambra than the Agulu fraud. Oluomo will never take 53% of Anambra into poverty if he were Governor of Anambra. I completely agree with Pressmybutton

anonimi:
What of the PH refinery?
If the expensive revamp was not an avenue for looting, why has ebilokan failed to crash petrol price below January 2023 level, after two years of hitting the ground running like a headless pig?

He should crash it because the crude oil is free, right?. Do your ignorant self know the cost of production?.

Failed government that is filled with criminals..
Ganduje is a dollar thief, Akpabio finished NDDC and Akwa ibom, Shetima is boko sponsor, Tinubu into drugs and now Okowa has joined his thievery friends.
Nigeria is in a comatose state with criminals in power

ajepako:
We all know the revamp was a plastic surgery, a poor one at that..

And of course , we all know what happens to poorly-done plastic surgery in the end..

Criminal enterprise pipu.

DesChyko:
A government that came in through the backdoor is destined to fail. There are no two ways about it.

israelmao:
Tinubu is sourcing fund for 2027 election through phantom projects.

Agbegbaorogboye:
Lol

I said it then that what will show whether these refineries are really working is the production data

All these audio tours by Kyari and his fellow henchmen is just for the glam

Now we can see that APC have infiltrated every govt agency with lies and propaganda

PH at 37% producing blended gasoline while Warri has been shut down since January

The question now is where the crude allocated for those refineries in those months are

happney65:
Did we not tell you it cant work? Sell off this damm thing una no dey hear.

Like NNPC, like Nigeria Air ... The more you look the less you see

iwaeda:
When I told them, NNPCL refineries both Warri and PortHarcourt are not working, they called us names. Nigerians, need to sit down and take deep breath and stop been emotional. Lies can't fly forever.

ogascomax:
We in Warri when we say nothing is happening here one mumu for South West we be arguing because they are like an AI that has been programmed to be mumu.
I don't support anybody blindly especially a politician.
When you are not doing well I will say so and that does not mean I will withdraw that support unless the failure or the direction that person is going is disastrous.

Xox1945:
Criminal in power
Nothing good can come from Tinubu
Government instead is busy destroying the country

Wailers! Wailers!! Wailers!!!.. What is there in the report that is stimulating and exciting you to wailing early in the morning?. The report is only telling us what we already knew. Upon the commencement of Warri refinery, NNPCL told us clearly that it was only operating at 60% and more importantly, IT HAS NOT BEGAN PRODUCING PETROL YET. So, why the wailing as if the news is a new information?. Abeg park unaself enter one corner.

You sabi use your eyes? What you posted didn't capture any information for 2007.

This is what separates a brilliant student from a mediocre like you. It's above your IQ.

A more balanced analysis of the poverty rates in the period under review shows the following:

1. Poverty rates in Nigeria grew nationally from 54.7 in 2004 to 60.9 in 2010 suggesting that inequality and lack of inclusive growth played a role.

2. The global financial crisis of 2008-2009 caused a global economic downturn which likely affected Nigeria’s economy (and by extension Anambra) leading to reduced remittances, trade and investment. One can attribute the national spike in poverty rate to the global financial crisis and not be wrong.

[b]THE ANAMBRA CONTEXT
When Peter Obi took office, Anambra state was grappling with insecurity, political instability and a dysfunctional political structure. It is remarkable to note that prior to Obi’s tenure, the state didn’t have a development plan and had been blacklisted by international development partners.
Also, prior to Obi’s tenure the IGR the state was low though it only grew modestly from 7.4 to 8.7 billion during his tenure. So the state was dependent on federal allocation and was very susceptible to economic shocks resulting from national economic downturns.
To address the issue of poverty, Obi’s government did the following:

1. Fiscal prudence and savings: Obi’s government saved over 500 million dollars in both national and foreign currency which included a 156 million dollar denominated bonds (making Anambra the first state in subsaharan Africa to setup a sub-sovereign wealth fund. This savings provided fiscal stability that enabled Obi’s successor to reduce poverty rate to 14.8% in 2019.

2. Education reforms: Obi’s government provided over 700 school buses, build classroom blocks in all 177 communities of the state, supplied boreholes, established Microsoft academies and internet access in over 500 schools. Anambra’s WAEC ranking increased from 26th to 1st in Obi’s final years in office. Education is a long term poverty reduction strategy and his educational investments increased Anambra’s human capital development.

3. Healthcare investments: Obi’s government secured accreditation for over 12 institutions, built 2 hospitals, and invested in primary healthcare including maternal and child health. He received an award from Bill and Melinda gates for polio eradication efforts. Healthcare investment improve access and can reduce poverty by lowering healthcare costs and increasing productivity.

4. Economic activity: Obi’s government attracted investment from SABmiller, Innoson etc and created jobs.

5. Infrastructure: Obi’s government built the first state secretariat, commenced the 3 arms zone, and conducted aerial mapping of Nnewi, Awka and Onitsha, laying foundations for long term development.

6. Obi’s government restored relations with UNDP, UNICEF and World bank therefore reversing Anambra’s prior pariah status.

Limitations
1. NBS data gaps between 2011 to 2018 makes it difficult to track the poverty trend during Obi’s tenure.

2. NBS approach to poverty estimation ( absolute poverty approach) does not capture other other components of multidimensional poverty (Education, Healthcare, infrastructure) where Obi’s policies had significant impact.

Conclusion
Obi’s policies laid a solid foundation for sustainable development and poverty reduction in Anambra state.

My friend, keep quiet, we are not talking about absolute poverty in the country here. This was state by state data.There was no vacuum when Obi took over power. Obi took over from Ngige and Anambra poverty rate under Ngige was 37%. After Obi left power, Obiano took it down to 14%. Why was it only Obi that increased poverty in Anambra?.

Agbegbaorogboye:
Wow!
2003-2004
Poverty was 69% under Tinubu in Lagos?!
So nor be today the man don dey throw people in poverty

Biko, tell us the poverty rate in Lagos in 1998 before Tinubu took over?.

Elusive001:
The only thing una god get for his record na bad things, stealing, corruption, etc. That's why na only bad thing una dey search for since 2022 for PO's side to use compare with the only thing wey una god get or sabi.

There's a reason he's called Agulu fraud. If he was the one who reduced Anambra poverty t 14%, by now you would have been forcing everyone to lick the sand of his feet. Meanwhile, Obiano who reduced Anambra poverty to 14% and by far better achieved than Obi is today a vilian to ipob.

owobokiri:
The citizens of Burkina Faso have been sleeping in front of the presidential Palace and at every roundabout in the capital since this new wave of schemings to remove him started. They're doing so to protect their president, while you lot from the agbadorian coven are here doing the work of the devils..

Some people from a certain region also did Youth Earnestly Yearn For Abacha. What money cannot do...

OkCornel:
More stuff.

Nigeria is in trouble.

You're still not making sense, give us surce of data with date of release. That's how to situate an event, you half baked graduate.

jmoore:
You don't know the difference between was and become.
Dude, go get basic education first before engaging me in any discussion.

Tinubu left 2007, what was the rate that Fashola met it in 2007?. You sabi use your head?.

OkCornel:
You have eyes to read.
Pitiable attempt at deflecting

What's the name of your source?,

Dbegining:
The 61% was when Tinubu took over from the military? Agreed. So was the 41%

Peter Obi managed it well. Now saying that poverty rate grew steadily to that 53% without having data to back it up is just peddling lies.

Also, poverty rate can grow astronomically within a year. This Tinubu's government has shown that.

So, three years into their respective governments, peter Obi drove down poverty while Tinubu took it up.

Lol, he managed poverty well?, from 41% to 53%?. Thunder where are you?.

jmoore:
Fashola was governor of Lagos in 2009. Not Tinubu.

Simple history.

Ok, Fashola became Governor in 2009?

jmoore:
The problem with babablu bulabu bots is that they always keep scoring own goals.



Tinubu was governor from 1999-2007. Tinubu has already spent 4 years as Lagos state governor and poverty rate of Lagos was 69.4% which is approximately 70% as indicated by the NBS report of 2003-04.

Tinubu was not governor in 2009-10.


NBS didn't release any absolute poverty data rate in 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 when Obi was still governor.

Peter Obi was governor between 2006 and 2014.

What was the poverty rate in 2006 before he became governor? Your yeye fact check didn't say.

The only thing from the data is that in 2009-2010 poverty rate in Anambra under Obi was 53.7% while 2003-2004 poverty rate in Lagos under Tinubu was 69.4%.

So between 53.7% and 69.4%, which is better?

Tinubu has even broken his own record. He has made more Nigerians poorer when he was sworn in as president.

You see how shallow ipob dey reason. The 60% rate was under Tinubu's first term when he took over from the military, then compare with his second term at which the rate was already coming down steadily. And then compare with 53.7% poverty rate during Obi's second term. Obi wasted the quality of life of the people of Anambra both in his first and second term. Obiano came and reduced it to 14%.

gidgiddy:
I suggest you look at the table again as it clearly says it was first the period of 2009 to 2010

Be that as it may, compared to other states in the table, Anambra had the 8th lowest poverty rise.

No 8 out of 36 states is not bad at all

Poverty rate was on increase trajectory since he took over. Even if according to your claim, it was for a year and Obi increased poverty to 53% within a year, then, he's supposed to be in jail.

Dey play, he's still angry that Bwala got an appointment ahead of him. He said he was disappointed Bwala came in and got an appointment before him and might discourage his loyalty to the party. So no surprises here.

Igirigimercenar:
I can bet on it, tinubu is behind this letter to the ICC

The purported balkanization of the north has began in full gear. Like I told my Fulani friend the other day, Yorubas will be the biggest undoing of the north and Yorubas will single handedly destroy the north politically and economically

North in their attempt to hold down the Eastern region gave too much powers to the Yorubas. You gave them the economic power and now they also have the political power, they can destroy the north with just one swoop and all is history

Yorubas is the only tribe in Nigeria to have produced two times president and vice president, the north while doing this were thinking they are getting back at the Igbos, not knowing they are digging their own grave.

North should do anyhow now and see anyhow

Ipob, we can smell you from 100 miles away. Give it up.

gidgiddy:
For a period of one year out of 8 years? You guys didn't even bother to read the table that Anambra was no 8, which means that poverty level rise higher in 28 other states, than in Anambra

Obi was Governor in 2006 and that data captured the period till 2010. You go school at all?

Bizibi:
this must be a teenager.

Old man, snap picture in Burkina Faso and update us.

OkCornel:
So why is the unemployment rate rising under Tinubu’s administration hmmm?

Why food insecurity rising?

Who you wan gaslight?

Which blog be dis one?, Ipob blog?

ivandragon:
You that is a 'big winner' still crying all over the social media. You claim to be 'winners', yet, you are blabbering everytime the incompetence of bat is called out.

Facts and reality speak for themselves. Bat is a terrible entity.

Crying how?, no be una dey wake up & sleep wailing daily

Goodlady:
We love Traore in Burkina Faso. He's out hero.

Oya wave your flag, me I dey find a cool Burkina babe, you fit dey make me enjoy Traore money.

OkCornel:
Abeg jare. So FG has employed at least 25 million Nigerians across all sectors as of today?

Meanwhile Manufacturers Association of Nigeria are shouting over the number of businesses that have shutdown operations and or struggling to sell their products due to weak demand for their products.

Ready to defend your slave master?

So, if one company shut down, another one no dey?. Na today companies dey shut down?.

Ok, tell us, How many banks have shut down?, How many telecoms have shut down, How many fintech has gone?, how many food manufacturers have shut down?.. you're only living in a world of your own negative imagination. The typical rhetoric of election losers

able20:
Which part of Nigeria do you have freedom?

I listen to people talk on radio insulting Government everyday, I see una insult the President on social media, including Nairaland. Abeg go and do it in Burkina Faso and collect award.

Bizibi:
smh ignorance in full glare.

Snap a picture of yourself in Burkina Faso, I want to check something

ivandragon:
I have analysed what I need to. You and the governors can continue to engage in propaganda.

The realities of the worsening socio-economic conditions of Nigerians is bare for all to see.

Both APC, PDP and LP Governors are engaging in propaganda?. Abeg shift, petty loser.

Goodlady:
If democracy wasn't abused in Burkina Faso will someone like Traore be idolized?
Look at your Nigeria. The same abuse of power by civilians. Misrule and anyhowness. See how your senate president got himself in a messy case with a woman in the senate. So what do we Burkinabes do now?
Ditch Traore or support him 94 just be at alert?

Abeg who dey idolize Traore?. Are you talking from Burkina Faso?, of you're not, then you are talking nonsense.

able20:
Omo believe me the citizens in Burkina Faso live a freedom status than Nigerian citizens where Ahmed Tinubu torture and intimate OPPOSITIONS AND PROTESTERS. WITH THE MILITARY, EFCC, DSS, POLICE AND THE JUDICIARY.
DEMOCRACY IS BURIED IN NIGERIA, ONLY ONLY ONE PARTY DICTATORSHIP

Naso which part of Burkina Faso are you talking from?.

kettykin:
@mod , @BOT , if this poster is not banned with the next couple of minutes, I will reply him or her with the same energy, thanks.

Be like dust don enter your eyes.

Bizibi:
what heat are you talking about

I don't know, maybe if you relocate to Burkina Faso, you can give us updates.

tomwee:
Nigerian President came into power in 2023, the value of niara is less than CFA, purchasing power in Nigeria is lower, security is at the lowest point. Mr writer why did you skip Nigeria Republic your immediate neighbor and went far to Bukina which is miles away. Since Tinubu came from France, the media had been filled with trash about Traore. If our looters are as sincere and committed as Traore, Nigeria will be a living heaven.

Lol, where is your sense?. Proof your sense and relocate to Burkina Faso if e sure for you. Tinubu is now sponsoring media campaign against Traore as per say wetin?. And our naira has had its true value, it will never been overvalued like in past anymore.
