I Think I Finally Understand How Nigerians Live On Less Than $2 A Day by Nobody: 11:02am On Oct 02, 2012
i see where those people who make those claims are coming from. ok what does nigeria produce apart from oyel ? nothing. so hoa many barrels of oil do we produce in a day ? about 3 million barrels. how much per barrel ? dunno but i think around $100. so lets do the math. 3 million barrels multiplied by 100 is $300 million dollars per day. what is the population of nigeria ? about 180 million. so if we divide the money equally amongst nigerians we come to about $2 a day per person. ahhhhhh well i guess this wasnt a racist propaganda afterall but the real hard cold facts. so for some people to be billionaires and millionaires, this means a lot of people are going hungry in that country.
