onenaira2: [s]Dummy I argued with multiple of your ppl on NL who kept trying to claim their are yolobas in Anioma ( an area I'm from and know u a are not one of us). Hell during GEJ conference, the itsekiri community leaders had to come out and complain severally because your south west leaders pushed them into the southwest/yoloba delegates. I was also on NL when you lots kept arguing with Edo about being one of y'all ( I can back every thing I just stated with links..you need it cause I'll be more than happy oblige). The reason they mention that South West keep trying to divide SS and SE is because una are. In my beginning years on Nl, I lost how many of una I and several people I had to fight who kept trying to put a wedge between Anioma and SE (y'all still do that shit even till this day). I was on this NL when you lots tried to steal Oyigbo, Egbema, etc who proudly accept their Igbo origin and attach it to ijaw. Infact, their was even an thread from an id Ogoni militant who was supporting a SS and SE unification and you lots descended on it shouting "SE wants your oil". It's harbour watching minority SS mop una to the floor on that thread. Likewise, when the Akwa Ibom guy, NDPVF and uduak I believe dragged una, you lots tried to turn every SS against Akwa Ibom. Let's not forget the NDA bombing, I lost how many of you people opened a thread wailing on how "SE and Igbos are the enemies of SS". Etc. So pathetic.. no wonder nobody in both regions like una excluding maybe itsekiri and urhobo/Isokos.
Anyway In just 2014, you lagged behind in everything you lead in 2013..in just ONE YEAR you fell that backwards and you shamefully try to tell us to listen to a 2013 report over a more recent data. How pathetic...na so your sophisticated be?
I feel bad for una..Always the I get am before mentality while everybody else jeep jumping una in everything. The only thing you got left is poverty rate, which based on the data you just posted, the gap is so small, I can bet everything I got you'll lag in that too soon. grin grin grin heyya ndoooooooo kpele
Now cry me a huge river like you doing now
That gap is small or did you think I forgot the report? The only reason SE had a highest number was because of Ebonyi. Infact, the rest of their states was neck in neck author the rest of SW states. Considering that Ebonyi is currently in a growth basis, likewise their Anambra while the rest of your states, especially Osun, is on a downfall as we speak...I bet you, that poverty rate will become another one of una "I get am before"....quote me on that anyday[/s] lamentations of a crying Abasha man...

UNDP conducted no such studies, Oxford university did and published it in UNDP reports.
Btw, Oxford Data are still flawed, as I suspect they gathered them from local authorities and not from the streets. keep saying that to yourself, their data sources are all from UN agencies, and that is the only reason why UN would publish it.

Ariani: The multidimensional poverty stat was not conducted by UNDP, it was conducted by Oxford university, who did not conduct any fresh studies themselves, but relied on flawed data from NBS which placed Niger state as the state with least poverty rate.
That topic had Bern debated and exhausted on NL here by many Igbo posters, let me look for the links of those debates and Post for the reading pleasure of the neutrals and newbies here. guy, pls stop deceiving yourself the methodology of measuring multidimensional poverty may have been developed by Oxford which is a top global research university IN COLLABORATION with the UN. But the field survey to collect the data was carried out purely by UN staff in Nigeria.... Oxford does not even have the means nor the funds to go on a field survey in over 100 developing countries of the world. The Global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) was developed in 2010 by the Oxford Poverty & Human Development Initiative (OPHI) and the United Nations Development Programme.[1] and uses different factors to determine poverty beyond income-based lists. It replaced the previous Human Poverty Index. The global MPI is released annually by OPHI and the results published on its website.
The global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) is an international measure of acute poverty covering over 100 developing countries. There is the methodology for you. http://hdr.undp.org/en/content/multidimensional-poverty-index-mpihttp://www.ophi.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/MPI_2011_Methodology_Note_4-11-2011_1500.pdf?cda6c1 |

Your blother was the one who tried to discredit the 2014 data like you are doing right now (case in point your reference agbalumo tree local data and beer palor gist.) and try to credit that UN is more reliable than the government of a nation thus we should drop a year later report (2014) and listen to a year before report (2013) because that favours una over the 2014 report.

The OP report was posted in 2016 reporting a 2013 collected data. Just because something was posted in 2016 or 2015 does not mean it's representing that specific year it was posted. It represent the year they spoke up.
Read the dataset again and look at the year each spoke of.
The UN reported a 2013 stats The Nigeria bureau reported a 2014 stats.

A very bad or good performer in one region can bring averages down very quickly or boost averages unnecessarily. Abeg, it is better like this. Its high time we start thinking of ur regions as federating units. India with about 7 times our population has only 29 states and 7 Union territories.

The preparation of this 2015 NHDR has been made possible by the contributions and support of many individuals and organizations who generously gave their valuable time and ideas. First and foremost is the UNDP Country Office in Nigeria for providing both financial and technical support right from inception. The team is particularly grateful for the unwavering guidance and support of the UNDP Nigeria team led by Pa Lamin Beyai (Country Director) and Ojijo Odhiambo (Senior Economic Advisor), Robert Asogwa (National Economist) and Grace Arinze-Ononwu (Economic Research Associate). A special appreciation is also due to Colleen Zamba (immediate former Economic Advisor), who provided valuable input at the onset of the process. The NHDR also benefited greatly from the advice and guidance of the former UNDP Resident Representative, Daouda Toure as well as the former Director-General of NISER, Prof. Olufemi Taiwo. https://c2.staticflickr.com/8/7591/26446259313_8d02a32d81_o.jpgThe following are the main points of the UNDP report on Nigeria. HEALTH* A long and Healthy Life :
Life expectancy remains for the health dimension of HDI. This however encapsulates several variables and is itself determined by various factors, hence its comprehensiveness. Life expectancy at birth is the average number of years a newborn infant would be expected to live if health and living conditions at the time of birth remained the same throughout life. It reflects the health of a people, the quality of care they receive when ill as well as social, economic and environmental conditions which mitigates or predisposes to morbidity and mortality. Life expectancy has been on the increase since 2009. However, NBS statistics in this respect differs. Demographic and health factors such as the quality of preventive and curative healthcare facilities and access to these, impact on life expectancy directly; while social conditions equally impact length and quality of life through a less direct path. The persistence of harmful social conditions such as war, conflict, crime, terrorist attacks and accidents in various forms will ultimately also diminish life expectancy at birth. Reductions in infant and under five mortality rates, increased access to nutritious food, and to primary health care, access to improved water sources and sanitation are all expected to be positively correlated with increased life expectancy at birth. Education is equally a key factor as it moderates behaviour and influences lifestyle habits alongside with preventive care. * Life expectancy index:
Although the national data shows there are declines in life expectancy at birth between 2012 and 2013, the life expectancy index for Nigeria shows improvement from 0.415 in 2008 to 0.464 in 2013. The increase in life expectancy index over the two years occurred in all geopolitical zones. In both years (2008 & 2013), life expectancy index was highest in the South-West and lowest in the North-East. Incidentally, the North-East geopolitical zone is mostly troubled by security challenges and incidence of terrorist attacks in Nigeria LIFE EXPECTANCY INDEX FOR NIGERIAhttps://c2.staticflickr.com/8/7434/26396251643_f666f70d1e_b.jpg-------------------------------------------------------- EDUCATION* Knowledge, Learning and Literacy:
This is measured by the Educational index, which is computed using Mean Years of Schooling (MYS) i.e (The average value of the 6.3.3.4 syatem completed) and Expected Years of Schooling (EYS) reflect the knowledge, learning and literacy of a people. Across the geo-political zones, data for 2013 shows that mean years of schooling was highest in the South-South zone (10.664), and followed by the South West Zone. It is lowest in the North-West zone (3.8126)
The North-East and North-West zones had values lower than the national average figure, while the southern zones all had higher values than the national average figure. MEAN YEARS OF SCHOOLING IN NIGERIAhttps://c2.staticflickr.com/8/7381/26967190656_ba77b11db1_b.jpgThe educational index across geopolitical zones presented in Figure 2.5 shows there were declines in the North-West, North-East, in the FCT and in the nation as a whole between 2010 and 2013. However, other zones in the south and the North-Central zone experienced increase in the educational index. Educational Index was highest In the South-South zone, followed by the South West and then the South East Zone. It was lowest in the North West Zone Zone, and closely followed by the North East. NIGERIA'S EDUCATIONAL INDEXhttps://c2.staticflickr.com/8/7604/26967288926_81483a0fc8_b.jpg--------------------------------------------------------- WEALTH AND LIVING STANDARD* Income and a Decent Standard of Living:
Decency in living standards incorporates factors related to income, health, assets and inequality. The degree to which there is decency in living standard is the degree to which people have overcome poverty. Poverty measures are therefore useful in explaining decent living standards. The Multi-dimensional Poverty Index (MPI) represents a holistic measure of people’s deprivations in health, education and standard of living using ten indicators across these dimensions. The MPI combines information on the proportion or incidence of people’s deprivations as well as the intensity of these deprivations. The index can also be decomposed by population sub-groups. The Table shows a breakdown of MPI (Poverty Index) for the geopolitical zones and the FCT, with the South-West recording the least MPI value of (0.154) and the North East recording the highest MPI Value (0.329) in 2013. This indicates that the combined measure of the incidence and the intensity of poverty is lowest in the South-West zone and highest in the North East Zone Since the MPI represents a combined measure of deprivation across dimensions of education, health and living standards, a similar pattern showing better performance in the south as opposed to the northern geopolitical zones is observed for MPI. The northern geopolitical zones have the highest MPI values. POVERTY INDEX RANKING FOR NIGERIAhttps://c2.staticflickr.com/8/7216/26968364586_fc3fa7c2c3_b.jpg--------------------------------------------------------- GENDER EQUALITY* Gender Equality:
Inequality measures are also useful in assessing decency and living standards. If growth is occurring in an economy, and such an economy still exhibits high inequality indices, then such growth is said to be non-inclusive. Non inclusive growth contradicts the principle of decent living standards and mitigates desirable development outcomes. The Gender Inequality Index (GII) is a measure of inequality between males and females in the population. It incorporates three dimensions namely: reproductive health,and labour market.
Indicators for these dimensions include maternal mortality rates (MMR), Adolescent Fertility Rates (AFR), share of parliament seats for males and females, and labour force participation rate. The higher the value of GII the wider the inequality gaps between males and females. The GII is highest in the North-West (0.774) and lowest in the South-East (0.397). All the southern geopolitical zones had GII values lower than the national average (0.579), while the northern zones all had GII values higher than the national average figure. The implications are that the indicators for the GII dimensions (MMR, AFR, share of parliament seats, and labour force participation rates) perform better in the southern states than in the northern states.empowerment GENDER INEQUALITY BY ZONES, NIGERIAhttps://c2.staticflickr.com/8/7338/26907317612_2cca82e66d_b.jpg--------------------------------------------------------- WOMEN IN GAINFUL EMPLOYMENT OUTSIDE AGRICULTURE* Women in gainful employment:
According to the latest nationally available data, In terms of geo-political zones, the share of women in wage employment in the non-agricultural sector in the North-central zone in 2010 was 7.6%; North-east, 4%; and North-west, 4.2%. The shares for the other zones were: South-east, 7.4%; South-south, 7.7%; and South-west, 16%. The latter (South West) was the highest among the zones, while the NE and NW (4% & 4.2%) were the lowest. Also, the available data shows that the share of women wage employment in the urban areas increased from 3.1% in 2009 to 14.8% in 2010. For the rural areas, it was 5.8% in 2009 and 5.6% in 2010. SHARE OF WOMEN IN WAGE EMPLOYMENThttps://c2.staticflickr.com/8/7542/26444317864_64dc3c37cd_b.jpg--------------------------------------------------------- POVERTY INCIDENCE BY TOTAL HEADCOUNT RATIO* Poverty Incidence (Headcount ratio):
According to the NBS (2013) about 112 million Nigerians live below the poverty line. Poverty incidence,measured by the headcount ratio, worsened in all the geo-political zones and sectors (rural and urban) of the country in 2010 when compared to 2004. It has remained higher in rural areas and northern zones than in urban areas and southern zones. It is striking to note that the headcount ratio almost doubled in the South-East zone (a zone which recorded the least incidence in 2004) and increased more in urban areas than in the rural areas of the SE. The trend in total population of the poor is shown in Figure 2.9. It reveals that more Nigerians were poor between 2004 and 2010.
However, recent computation by the World Bank, using GHS panel, indicates that poverty rates are significantly lower than estimates based on 2009/2010 HNLSS. It dropped from 35.2 per cent in 2009/2010 to 33.1 per cent in 2012/2013 (as opposed to 62.2% from the 2009/2010 HNLSS) (World Bank, 2014b). This implied that about 56 million Nigerians were poor compared to about 113 million in previous estimates. Poverty incidence is seen to be lowest in the South West Zone (46.9%), followed by the South-South (51.6%), Incidence of poverty is highest in the North East (74.3%), closely followed by the North West (73.2%) POVERTY PREVALENCE BY SECTORS AND ZONEShttps://c2.staticflickr.com/8/7778/26396115774_68f80a5cef_b.jpg--------------------------------------------------------- POPULATION TO PUBLIC SPENDING RATIO* Spending on Education, Health and Public Administration:
The underlying factors in the unequal distribution of wealth and development outcomes may be further explained by a comparison of the share of population spending on key sectors such as education and health. Spending connotes investment and investments are expected to yield returns. Figure 2.7 shows population shares as well as shares of expenditure on education, health and public administration, and attempts a comparison of these variables across the geo-political zones.
The pattern shows that the northern zones and the South-East record lower shares of spending than shares of national population. Wider disparities in shares of the two variables are noticeable in the northern zones. South-West recorded a slightly higher spending (20.4%) than its share of population (19.8%), while the South-South zone has by far, a higher share of spending (28.2%) than its share of population (14.9%)..

The status of some health indicators has improved since the 1990s. For instance, Under-5 Mortality Rate dropped from 99 in 1990 to 89 in 2014; Infant Mortality rate dropped from 91 in 1990 to 58 in 2014; while maternal Mortality rate dropped from 1000 in 1990 to 243 in 2014. (FRN, 2015) This improved status is expected to have positive impact on the status of human security and human development.
infant mortality declined from 93 between 1999 and 2003 period to 69 between 2009 and 2013 period while correspondingly, under 5 mortality dropped from 185 to 128. As presented in Table 4.15 all the zones experienced reduction in infant mortality between 2008 and 2013. As at 2013, the North-West Geo-political zone recorded the highest infant mortality (89/1,000 live births) rate, followed by the South East (82/1,000 live births) while the lowest rates were recorded by the South-South (58/1,000) zone followed closely by the South West.
