No oga, your Kenya is 46% according to ITU (a subsidiary of United nations).

So i rather go with United nations statistics!

The source of this wiki page is ITU (a subsidiary of UN).

Wrong as usual! Which is to say you're either logically fallacious or lacking proper info-which is the case. One link is for 2015 the other one March 2017-guess which link?

Did you bother to read my link before you started foaming in the mouth.


Your article says 33% are living below poverty, that means about 40 more are still poor. Most Nigerians are between poor and below poor

I keep saying anyone taking a look beyond a glance at Naij economic stats will laugh! I've mentioned Prof.Hanke before.

Btw,Naijjans,its nothing personal but when we see the Prof's work,hear Osinbajo's statement on your REAL GDP and suffer the sound of your contempt for others we laugh.

The problem with Ghanaians and Kenyans is that they think Nigeria functions like their smaller countries.

Nigeria is developing like the United states with different states developing their own economies and competing with each other.

Ghana as a smaller country will gather all their available money to build one hospital in Accra and be bragging day and night about it, WHILE different Nigerian states on the other hand will be building their own different hospitals in their different states and at the end of the day Ghana will have only 1 in Accra, while Nigeria will have over 1 dozen in different states.

JiggamanGh:

and u spend it recklessly cos of ur economy.......imagine,a bottle of coke is 3gh cedis.ALMOST $1
why wont u consider urself rich,even the monetary standard is $3.heck,u spend more than that on a daily basis on food only...........u're very rich niggar.

Every African nation has it's share of poor people. What I find hard to understand is why most people here find it hard to reason in line with what my fellow compatriots have been trying to explain for a long time now, which still looks like a vain mission.

This is mostly from the Ghanaians here, why do they so much hate Nigerians and type with so much hate?? I should be scared to visit that country with what am seeing here, who knows I may be lynched on knowing am a Nigerian. I just want to clear the air on this issue to avoid further arguments.

Nigerians aren't poor or even near to what you may regard a pauper, which is obtainable in many African nations I don't want to mention. Nigeria has the highest population of average people who work hard daily to make ends meet, you can't regard these people as poor unless your definition of poverty is different from mine, many of these struggling people feed and still manage to at least send their wards to a Federal University which are plenty here.

What inflates the number of poor people here is the North East. This region has had countless of attacks owing to the insurgence and Boko Haram attacks which many of you already know. Again this region was lagging behind their southern counterparts before all these owing to their religious affinity which already made them not open to development, the North has commercial cities like Kano, Kaduna, Maidugri (war ravaged) and many more which are buzzing in business, but most of these people would rather resort to begging and over dependence on Govt then live in abject poverty instead of going out to work, am not generalizing cos they still got many potentials and hardworking people. Adding to these, their polygamous nature also keeps increasing the population.

Another one is the immigration factor, most people from war ravaged and poor Countries like Chad, Niger due to starvation and search for greener pastures emigrate to Nigeria, because they all have a border in the North, so these all add up to rate of poverty in the North and Nigeria at large since they are also included as Nigerians because you can hardly differentiate them from our core Northerners here owing to their similar culture and religion.

My point is, An average Nigerian is not poor, The insurgence, population factor is what is making it look so when you take the average. An average Nigerian is enlightened and has access to the internet.

I tried to be objective as I can, and this is the reality or near-realtity of what is on ground here...

Bros .. if fortunately for you, you happen to be among the rich in your country .. it's an opportunity to make an impact in people's lives .. there is no point in going for events and showering money on people to display your affluence .. that to me is poverty of the mind (the worst form of poverty you'll find); you won't find people do that in any civilised society.

i want to see african states work towards ensuring universal access to basic social amenities such as universal access to education, universal access to power, a functioning health insurance for every citizen, secure and safe communities. this is what you find in civilised and developed countries. opportunity is there for individuals to make money but the vulnerable are also protected through various social intervention programs.

Nowenuse:


Yes we are poor, yet we have the richest industries in Black africa.
Anyone can be a millionaire in Nigeria overnight due to the large pool and channel of wealth flowing in Nigeria.

Ghana is more developed yet only 23% of their citizens have ever known what it looks like to operate an internet enabled phone or a computer. What a shame and embarrasment!

Poverty stricken fools.
I can't imagine myself being a citizen of a country where the capital and largest city of the country with millions of people has no economy, no GDP, no wealth flow, nothing! Everybody just living normal average day to day lives. What nonsense!

And who told you that the average Nigerian does not have access to these things?

We have 774 LGAs in Nigeria and each of these areas have primary and secondary schs, health centres, roads, a local govt administrative centre and headquarters for closeness of governance to the people. We have all these things and are still doing our best to develop them. But because of our large and increasing population, we would still have a disadvantage in this aspect.

Have you been to all Nigerian states and local govt areas to assess the quality of all these amenities? NO! You mostly rely on online index figures which always rank Nigeria probably lower than your country, so this makes you conclude that we have no health care, schools, e.t.c......pls, is this not the height of stupidity??

The fact that Cape verde has a higher HDI than Ghana, should that be enough reason for them to tell Ghanaians that the average Ghanaian has no access to health care or education?
You guys are impossible!

To be honest, the only thing Nigeria beat South africa with, is population. South africa beat nigeria in everything. Never mention music please, south african artists are the richest in AFRICA.

You're just stubborn. Who between wikipedia and the website i gave you are more accurate and up to date. You think the UN has never been fed and dished out bogus data? How many times will you be told wikipedia is a mere guide and so so many of it's entries out of date. Its content is user generated and verified by peers. Many many times they are way off the mark.

I hope the data didn't shock you, its just bloody true, sad to admit. My own mother is 65 and i taught her how to use whatsapp, which i communicate with her everyday. Everyday! Mid next year i intend to install wifi in her house to stop her using expensive bundles. Her rural farm is near a major town so its no biggie. My 62 year old mother in law communicates to me via whatsapp as well and i have been on the end of a losing battle with her other children and grandchildren for her not to open a facebook account which she duly did just last month. So far she has 164 friends and counting. Bros, internet is real in kenya so stop using the false premise that being a rural dweller excludes one from the internet.

Ps: It has been shown in this thread that there are more bank branches per 1,000 pop in Kenya than in Nigeria. Search for that mini convo. Nigeria has large banks and that's it. They don't seem to be able to bank the less affluent,something kenyan banks have excelled in. Mpesa is a payment platform more than a money sending service nowadays, some people i know never carry cash, just their boring mobiles.
