According to ipob statistics of bastards n lunatics

Do you also doubts these

I can do better with that, using corell draw.

Last I checked,both NBA and other statistical agencies listed the South East as the poorest in Southern Nigeria.

Do you really believe that people that live in these kinds of house are poor?

Picture 1: Aba, Abia State

Picture 2: Onitsha, Anambra

These are not estates, but places a typical resident lives in.

FreeStuffsNG:
It's the reality of how the sampling size used in the majority tribes like Hausa, Yoruba and Fulani that I find concerning.

The population of the South East is the least so the sampling in relation to SW and NW may not be fair. If you sample 10 people out of 20 and take same size of 10 people among 50 people, the probability is higher in the population that is lower but I know you can then use statistical tools to test and analyse the variations which I am aware is still based on statistical assumptions.

It is either the NW and SW group data are faulty or that of the SE is faulty because both groups are at the opposite poles with SE being the least populated zone while NW/SW are the most populated geopolitical zones. I will not even bother go to the apparent asymmetry in having the SE's data in this report with the reality in SE at a time Igboland is having long days of political sit at home days and massive emigration of SEterners to other zones further increasing the chances of reduced population of SE.

Fulanis that are not up to 6% of Nigeria population are majority group according to your biased and poor thinking ability. Always writing nonsense to demean and look down on Igbos. How can you say Igbos occupying Igboland, Kano, Lagos and Ibadan are minority group in Nigeria?? You are simply biased and troublesome.

Omoawoke2:


Far ahead in which indices

Statistics of poor people per state doesn’t can easily be flawed.

What you can use to determine is IGR

And in every indices, southeast is the poorest in the south and second poorest in Nigeria

IGR means taxing the poor to generate funds for State government. It's never a good indices to measure wealth. There's low IGR in SE States but residents are relatively okay.

Yes, I found it already.

They had to do documentary on the slums in your region

They did another documentary on Abia

Onistha was known as the world dirtiest city

Stop the chest beating

If you went through the walls of a secondary school, you would know that percentages have nothing to do with population.

If you like be only 10.
If you are poor, the percentage would show it.

Besides, overpopulation breeds poverty.
So it's not even a flex to be too populated.

BoldBrainz:
Another thread meant to be a battle ground for the Yorubas and Igbos..

Almost everyone in the North Central is poor, according to this chart.

Meanwhile, the bulk of the poor people in the South South are found in Akwa Ibom and Bayelsa. Ironically, both states are amongst the top 6 largest oil producing states in the country.

the political elites are feeding fat in oil

Why is Aba that is notoriously assume to be dirty more urbanized than all the cities in South West minus Lagos, IGR is nothing without wealth distribution 😆 🤣 😂 😹, Igbos believe is self struggle, reason for their dominance in middle class, just their nature

ecolime:
Fake stats

How did they arrive at these figures?

North West: 92.8%

North Central: 96.2%

Nigeria wey no get database dey dish out figures. All NBS staff should be sacked. They are collecting fat salaries for doing nothing.

North Central has Abuja, Kwara, Benue, Kogi and Nassarawa. You think if 96.2% of the Population there are in poverty, the region won't be in turmoil? Even Sudan and Somalia no get these terrible stats.

can u mention two factory or manufacturing company Benue or kogi states

Zxcvbnmghtr:


You are even wasting your time. South East alone is the only wealthy region in Nigeria. The rest are too poor. If only the rest of the country can also investment in fake drugs and cocaine. Every one would have become billionaires too.

if other regions in nigeria will learn from south east to invest in banditry like stealing of cows, rams, goats, famers paying dues to bandits or skull mining, fraud, fake documents to work in government, fraud, selling of human parts to alfa's there wealths will spread like south east wealth

First we can’t minus Lagos… Lagos is southwest and there’s nothing you can do about it or else you want to tell me you will lift Lagos on your head if Nigeria split up today!

Secondly, the entire Aba plus Nnewi plus Onistha no reach Ibadan and Ibadan is far ahead of the three together.

Thirdly, the second most industrialized state in Nigeria is ogun state. The infrastructure in Ogun alone is more than the entire southeast.

Here we go, IGR from hell, over 90 percent of Nigerians revenue is used to service debt, aren't your pay Master in Russia looking for debt relief, poverty capital of the world, the real IGR are small and medium scale businesses, travel to advanced world and see how their govt fall over just to ensure these businesses thrive, cos they constitute the real economic base of the Middle class. Who dominates in Nigerian commerce, your denial doesn't matter, Igbos are just naturally resilient 😉

IamANigerianMan:
99% of Nigerians are poor but wait oo, North Central has 21M people, 20.2m of them are poor

perhaps because a particular religion is used to hold their thinking faculty. to make better decisions that are wealth oriented, you might need to leave religion on one side

fx45:
Majority tribe like Fulani? Are you kidding me?

By the way, you need to wean yourself off South East obsession. Make you no go die on top nothing. Igbos are not your mate

Don't mind the id!ot

Of course you cant minus Lagos, it was capital of Nigeria for over years and you cant do without it. Ibadan was capital of the Western Region even before independence

Without a place having being capital, you guys cannot develop anywhere. Without government help, you can't develop nothing

But Onitsha, Aba and Nnewi never needed to capital of anywhere for their people to develop it

Laughable

IamAtikulate:
Here is Nigeria Bureau of Statistics latest poverty data for each zone.

South East: 49.5%

South West: 50.1%

South South: 75.6%

North East: 78.8%

North West: 92.8%

North Central: 96.2%

Percentage of poor people in Nigeria: 73.8%

Only South East and South West see below the national average.

Share your thoughts nicely

Thought they said Nigeria GDP per capita is 2000+? These stats doesn't seem fair.

Last I checked,both NBA and other statistical agencies listed the South East as the poorest in Southern Nigeria.

You simply typed what even inside your head, you cannot believe

Apart from Abuja North Central is completely damaged by fulani herdsmen.

The poverty in Niger state is huge,the poverty in some parts of Benue as result of displaced people no be here.
Almost half of displaced men and women in North East of Nigeria are in Abuja begging and constantly on the move to no where.

Is that why only 800k people are living above poverty level, stop seating in one corner making up unreal stats.
That Stats is complete falsehood and I can prove it

Keep quiet,this is where I live and work.

The poverty in Nasarawa state alone is mind boggling let alone the inability of people to go their farms. Same with Kogi state that most of their indigenes are in Abuja because of kidnapping and all sorts.

My work takes me round these states I have just mentioned.

Don't counter what u don't know,rather keep quiet and remained so.

What do u know.

Travel to South East and verify by yourself, standard of living, environment in terms of where the ordinary people in the region lives and the people on ground will avail you the true result, south east is better bro

SOSinNigeria:


If not that majority of Nigerians are not really bright, this shouldn't even be news. You can't dominate in education and still dominate in trade/commerce and craft without being ahead.

If Igbos are not relatively well-off, we won't be living in decent houses. The only reason why SW is doing relatively
okay as well is due to proximity to Lagos. Otherwise, they won't even be close to Igbos at all.

Not only proximity to Lagos, remember the statistics is about region and not tribe, the population of Igbo business men and women in south west are also counted for south west to reduce poverty rate like the way they contribute in IGR. In all, the two regions are doing well.

IGR that doesn't reflect in the quality of life of it's citizens, which kind IGR be that? And also note that most industries and factories in the south west are owned by non-indigene, take Agbara, Ogun state for example.

Empirical data based on statistical rigor remains the standard. Anecdotes proves nothing.
A typical sign of humans with lack of critical thought is their penchant towards the latter over the former.

Poor Igbos are all over the Southwest in large numbers and more are on their way in Ekene-dilli-Chukwu buses as we speak.
