You still didn't answer or show proof that Buhari increased poverty index. If he did, why have we dropped from 114 to 87 million and not the other way round? i don't need all these sermons if you can't show in numbers how many poor people was added to what we have already.

grandstar:
What you said is inaccurate. All Nigerian governments since the start of democracy have worked towards reducing poverty. That is why they implement pro-growth policies. Economic growth is the best way to reduce poverty. Fast economic growth in China brlifted 400m people into the middle class.

From 1999 - 2013, the Nigerian economy grew on average 6% a year and the middle class was growing. The economy even doubled in size.

Sadly, Buhari upon assumption of office introduced some bad policies which grounded the economy.

First was the the pegging of the Naira at 197 to a $1 without regard to market forces. This "well meaning" policy was based on the belief that economists determine exchange rates and it will be wrong to allow it to devalue and bring sufferings upon the populace.

Unfortunately, and expected by economists, it lead to severe forex scarcity that deprived companies of forex to import raw materials and with mass closure of companies, a severe recession started lasting 6 quarters

Buhari isn't superman but if you can't better things, please don't make it far worse as it is today. It's his fault things are these bad and with this new salary increase, I see worse in front of us.

India's anti-poverty battle didn't start 30years ago. India's economy was about to collapse in 1991 and was forced to implement free market reforms (which Buhari hates) and things began to turnaround for the economy and it started to soar. It was the fast growth that lifted millions of Indians from extreme poverty.

The Nigerian economy has averaged yearly growth of barely 1% since Buhari mounted the saddle while the population has kept growing by 2.6% which means Nigerian got much poorer under Buhari.

Worse, Bloomberg predicted economic growth of 2.5% yearly for the next 4years which is not up to the population growth rate meaning that Nigerians will still get poorer on the next 4 years.

If this new wage will cost the FG an extra 1.2trilliom, I foresee economic turmoil by 2020 at the latest if not by August/ September this year. The naira will come under pressure and with Buhari at the helm, I'm sure the pressure will be mishandled. The mishandling should lead to a recession. But that's only if the new wage increase will cost that much. Even if it's not that much, it can still be very damaging.

I didn't t fabricate what i posted, prove to us by posting evidence that our poverty index grew.

vaxx2:
What you posted aren't fact but fabrication . A quick check on the internet will tell you otherwise.

When you attach emotion to everything, you mix up things and in the process cause more harm than good.

If you're truly a christian, you wouldn't respond to my message the way you did. what will Jesus say or do?
Now let me tell you why this prayer or wish is bad: When a wicked person knows no peace, he or she disturbs the environment the more. a disturbed fellow is a timebomb, they kill for no reason, they keep spreading violence because they know no peace. a peaceful person becomes less violent, a non peaceful person (Example: The agberos in your area love to fight for no reason because peace is far from them) seek chaos everywhere they go because they can't give what they don't have.

Your prayers should be that God arrest them, change their heart and make them a better person.
Option 2 is that the law should catch up with them and made them to pay for their atrocities.
But then we're in Nigeria where we always live, like and breath violence, so not supporting your kind of prayer is frowned on.

Read and recite the Lord's prayer! Being a Christian is not by name but by acts!

But why are people this heartless now!
May the perpetrators of this evil thing never know peace all the rest of their miserable lives.

Your mention about our post is 'somehow' as your moniker implies!
Please don't do that again, you are sounding like one of the evil people already.
Be guided!

I posted fact and figures, what did you post to support your "view"?

vaxx2:
You shoot yourself bro. Poverty is rising in Nigeria . It is not even on track to reduce it.

Are you aware that this exercise could have been done as an exchange.

You go to the bank with your dirty notes and a new one issued instantly ...without conditions

How else were you thinking they were going to do it before?

They're simply going to replace all bad notes brought to the bank as bank lodgements by various customers when each bank takes their deposits to them.

Or what were you thinking?

This statement causes more harm than good in the long run.

Awol1:
I must look like ur lecturer.

Let's assume your statistics is accurate, Nigeria had 114 million poor people and wasn't the poverty capital of the world. What that meant was that some country had more number of poor people.

Fast forward to 2019, and Nigeria, with a population of 87m poor people, is now the poverty capital of the world.

What this means is that the country that was the poverty capital did tremendously enough to reduce the number of their poor from above 114 million to below 87 million while Nigeria failed to lift enough people from poverty to wealth.

Now, if this is not failure of govt, tell me what it is.

Ignorance is bliss

Google is your friend

Read up why Nigeria became the number 1.

Tip: India the former number 1 worked harder than us to reduce drastically the number of poor people in their country.

Read up the rest! The number of poor people in your county didn't increase, rather reduced but not to the number of reductions for the previous number 1.

You expected Buhari to turn Superman overnight to erase 114 million poor people out of Nigeria in 4 years like he planned your country for you from the start unlike India that has 10,20 and 50 years plan which every new government has been following for more than 30 years now?

India was 124 million or thereabouts poor people in 2012/2014 and now 74 million poor people. The plan started 30 years ago, they were not eating their savings or looting it for the past 30 years unlike you and your previous governments!

Have a nice day.

Btw: I didn't guess or assume anything above, it's everywhere on the internet!

Awol1:
The population is skyrocketing while the govt has no provision to grow amenities requisite to the population.

Rather, every policy is making sure majority of us are retrogressing into extreme poverty.

It won't be long before we start eating ourselves.

Buhari is a curse we shouldn't have placed on ourselves

Please educate me

How is 114 million poor people in 2014 to 87 million poor people in 2018 a retrogression?

I'm waiting for you to educate me.

Lyon have just scored in London.

It's now Chelsea 1-3 Lyon on aggregate (Lyon won 2-1 in France).

Don't worry, you will be sent to Kosovo or Bangladesh in your next life.

My statement is for the wise.

Now this is a thinking government in the midst of crisis

yerokunphilips:
This is someone that knows his right hand from his left hand .IMF have done more evil than good to developing nations ,what they do most time is prepare shit and cover it with icing cake . Country that really want development will run away from both policies and loan from IMF . People managing the affair of this country today knows absolute nothing about economy , security and promotion of unity among the people ,if they truly do ,economy will not collapsed under their watch ,security will not collapsed under their watch and Nigerian will not be this divided under their watch .

Which loan did this government take from IMF or you just want to type for likes?
