■ What we are experiencing is a residue from the old african way of living. We give birth without any plans hoping our family members will help us to take care of them.
Same thing with animals. We buy chicken, goats and dogs we can't take care of and leave them wandering around the streets looking for what to eat. What buy what you can't cage and take care of? ohhh, i love pets.

Same is with kids. Many can't take care of the kids they brought to life yet abusing a family member of not helping them to do it.
How is this any much different from what Almajiri's do?

Yet some go regale us with tales of how government is to blame. undecided

Na simple question I ask you. Which "sane clime" dey wey man go born pikin like rats and still live good because, according to you minimum wage and so on? undecided

By the way, last I checked public school education is still free in Nigeria too. So what keeps these poor folks from sending many of their kids to school there. undecided

They had poor parents and poor grandparents and poor great-grandparents. They’re unable to break the cycle.

Blame our wicked government.

They created mass poverty to be able to control people.

Exactly! Our former maiguard has over 20 kids (and counting)…
And we must “blame our wicked government” for impregnating his wives

At some point folks just have to take PERSONAL responsibility…
Look at the Almajiri, etc., what consequences do their parents have?!

Yes, people should take responsibility for their actions. Government is not to blame for wrong decisions taken by people which eventually leads them to poverty in future.
Re: Why Are There Too Many Poor People Who Cannot Take Care Of Their Families? by madridguy(m): 8:52am On Jun 16, 2023
If you must be factual with yourself you will know it is our government that has the whole blame.
Why do you think they're encouraging Almajiri?
A serious government will look into everything the citizens are doing. From A to Z.

Wrong mentality is the problem of Nigerians not the government. The government is a representative of the mentality of Nigerians. When we go to other countries where our government is not present, we still exhibit the same level of corruption.

We despise little beginnings and favor instant riches.

Ask yourself why there are still rich people in the midst of all this poverty.

It is the citizens that make a nation rich.

government will look into how you always have erection as a poor man right? Government will also help you look into how you're busy looking for male or female child which led to having half a dozen of kids right?

Blood of Zachariah! Are thought such things only happens in the north
we have it in South too. Infact, you can easily find at least one person in a family with 5-6 kids. I have it in my family. My mum sister had 6 children grin

Poverty can never depart Africa no be swear. We're so backward and myopic.

A poor wretched man with 10 children see himself better than someone with a kid or no kid

Very primitive set of entity

You are still not getting the point. If government provide jobs that make everyone to be busy you won't have time climbing your wife all the time. An idle man with bunch of time on his side will always have erection and the result is what we are seeing. Let them provide jobs for both male and female.

But they provide enabling environment that will bring investors. The US government and other countries are doing that but our own are busy sending them away with their useless and selfish policy.

Arrrgghhh! So, family planning wey go allow the man climb him wife as many times as he feels like without breeding like a rat, also provided by the same government, is completely out of the question. Na only when government comes to give the man job na only then the man go come climb his wife less? undecided

After what happened in the last elections, I stopped blaming the government and politicians.

The people are to be blamed for everything that happens to them forthwith.

Some collected ordinary 2k from politicians and voted them in only to go back and continue drinking garri with their family after the 2k finish. I saw video of a girl boasting about collecting 5k from a local politician and guess what, she voted for him without considering what he had to offer to the community.

Also, should the government cut poor people's preeks and stop them from mass breeding like rabbits?

Recycling of poverty lies solely in the people's hands, government has little or no influence in that.

If you and your spouse don't have reasonable income at the moment, don't think of having kids yet unless you plan to continue your lineage in poverty.

Plan for the kids before having them, else they'll just be another burden on the already volatile society.

Poverty is a thing of the mind. Don't let your thinking make you poor. Get up, work hard and change your condition. You can do it if you are determined to change your life. Yes.

most of these men has something doing. Just that it can't cater for the family because of too many children. An average Nigerian man needs to get enlightened on the need and important of family planning.

Poverty is a SPIRIT. Take it or leave it.

There are curses and demons behind poverty.

This is why Lots of people work hard and still cannot be rich.

So hard work isn't the only antidote to poverty.

God blessings (Proverbs 10:22) and hard work.

The Holy Spirit is behind prosperity.

Shakes my head in disgust!

You need urgent help!
