Believe these so called World leaders at your own peril. I dey bow for una oo. Shoo

She has yet to touch down in Nigeria and she's already running her mouth. All these whites and their boundless pride and disrespect for the blacks. The way they run down Africans churning out poverty figures from their mind, you'll think there are no poor, homeless people among them too. But alas the reverse is the case.
Why are Nigerians on Nairaland so anti-Nigerian unlike what obtains on Twitter? Why can't we talk back at these imperialists, and leave out local politics aside, some times? Trump's reported comment about Buhari that filled the cyberspace yesterday should have received a widespread condemnation and trolling of Trump from us, but no, Nairalanders would rather insult their president more.

The only US president who ever spent three terms in office, Roosevelt, was a crippled who ruled from wheelchair, but he saw America through the Second World War making it an unrivalled world power.

If I could give gold. I will give you plenty!

God bless you

Dear sis, I don't agree with this. We're not the poorest. It's all politics. How on earth did they come to this conclusion? What studies did they carry out across the breadth and length of the country? There are many countries poorer than Nigeria, for example, Haiti, Somalia, e.t.c.

no....we are now poorer than even afghanistan....even poorer than south sudan....

Jaqenhghar:

you cant blame the politicians alone nau. If theu do t steal and take it abroad the average Niggerian will still call them fools for not stealing. Abi you never jear the saying na where man dey work man dey chop

at least they should do it with sense and invest in their country.

It is because they are leftist thugs and traitors who will kill their own in other to get political power. Empty barrels make the loudest noise. I wonder why insults, hate and derogatory remarks are propagated and tolerated on Nairaland. On Reddit they are mostly deleted and banned. In fact news about Nigeria on Reddit is more positive than on Nairaland. They are making the same mistakes because insults do not win elections. If you think you are better than the present administration, tell us why and convince us.

itu404:

Nairaland is a place of the filthy, uninformed, crude and outright liars who thrives on falsehood. it is high time many here ought to be censored here. the first place for fake news badmouth and unpatriotic element is here. one is tempted to think many of them are sponsored by the opposition, and those afraid of persecution. let them talk! but if it takes a lifeless president to give life to our economy so be it. After all, Jesus died in order to give us life. here in the face of a glaring truth many are prepared to laugh in your face and call it the biggest lie of our time, you are welcome!

The above crap is one reason Nigerian in particular and Africa in general shell remain a backwater. Nigeria is a complete joke when viewed from the prism of developing countries. I did not write developed countries because it be a matter silly attempt at idiocy to do so. Until the people who presently occupy the shithole called Nigeria arrive at the first gate of unity not united or union, the scene of development shall remain a mirage.

ChiefAzubuike:
Very big lie. How can you say this when there's India, Bangladesh, Philippines, and most nations in south east Asia and the Americas. Well if she's saying this based on population density then India is far ahead.

don't mind the childless hag.

Jaqenhghar:

You are ahead of India yet you buy products they make. Products you cant make. They come here and live fat and exploit your people amd your people call them 'master'. Even your police amd soldiers offer them quality security amd make sure they are safe to run their business, privileges you will NEVER enjoy in their country.

u dey mind dem.see some of dem dey tag india as very poor compared to naija but then plus we import indian products ..nigerians also run to india for economic prosperity.so if india was poorer than naija we for dey run go india? U reason am na.i fit no agree wit most things theresa may dey yarn but she's so right on this.

the cretins you have here can't even tweet on Twitter.

Based on population density and GDP, India ranks higher than Nigeria. Nigeria's GDP is about $400bn as against $2.27bn Indian GDP. Nigeria has no logical reason to be so poor especially when we have oil. May has a point

Oil should be a bonus for us not as the only major source of income.the real wealth of a country is created through human capital development.we produce 2 million barrels of oil per day and with all the corruption is the country and stealing of the little money we have as a country that is why we became the country with highest number of people living is poverty .

Case study, Norway has less than 5 million people and they produce 1.7 million barrels of oil per day and they never depend full on oil. Norway budget is is 199 billions dollars, they have electricity , high human development capital index,good education system, good road and infrastructure ,no corruption and my country with over 160 million, our budget is less than 30 billion dollars corruption , bad road , no electricity , bad education , low human capital development, no security.

Nigeria is a poor country by all standard.

ogtavia:


They don't even have oil. Yet their hospitals, schools, research institutes are choice of many Nigerians. This is why they don't respect Nigerians.

exactly

India now is better than India of 15 years ago

Can we say same of Nigeria?

Their economy has grown, they have Bangalore, they have improved their health care in such a way that people from across the world now throng there for affordable treatment

Even India ranks too 10 in the number of international students in their universities


What progress can we really say we have made as Nigerians in the last 15 years?

Even this govt has made things too too bad

justtoodark:


no....we are now poorer than even afghanistan....even poorer than south sudan....

You won't believe me that it's all politics? Well, time will tell.

Oceannaagent:
Too bad, every thing bad have been associated with Nigeria.
What of India, Myanmar etc Nigeria is way ahead of them

Where you Dey when Nigeria overtake India earlier dis year?

You think say e easy to get a dullard as president?

Raphaelmary:
Why can't they ever leave Nigeria alone?

it's because in constructive criticism you grow and make adjustments for more excellent ideas to follow in and make you 100 × better than what you are. Least you forget only someone that loves you tells you the bitter truth.

ChiefAzubuike:

Do you listen to the news at all?

Nigeria has more poor people than India - World poverty Clock.

Let everyone just pause for a minute, take a deep breath and let it sink in! India a country whose population is 6x our population has less people in absolute poverty than ours. Inida's population, 1.3bn people. Nigeria's population, 200m at most.

https://punchng.com/with-87m-poor-citizens-nigeria-overtakes-india-as-worlds-poverty-capital/

This has everything to do with the extremely weak federation we have been operating since the class of '66 seized the reins of power in this country.

adioolayi:
“Much of Nigeria is thriving, with many individuals enjoying the fruits of a resurgent economy, yet 87 million Nigerians live below $1 and 90 cents a day, making it home to more very poor people than any other nation in the world,” she said.

Stop reading in isolation... that's her exact statement. Many studies has shown that average Nigerians live below $1 a day.... so, what's the new thing in what May said

Acknowledging the fact that Nigeria is having resurgent economy means PMB administration is doing something good.

another n power beneficiary spotted...they would do anything to to support a lifeless man... PMB administration is doing something good...pass me ur weed bro

. A crippled Roosevelt is ten times more fitter than buhari. A crippled president that was able to lead his country in a world war against imperialist japan. Under buhari look at how boko haram is using the nigerian army to rub ground.

How is this a lie? She's talking about highest poverty level in relation with population and Nigeria just overtook India to become NO1.

Evidently, you lack the necessary mental screws to comprehensivley comprehend my post hence, proudly parading your stupidity online. If you solicit for a deserving response, then you must do away with your adhominem.

High poverty level is worrisome. Or it should, because poverty comes along with many effects; hunger and starvation, lack of access to quality health care, education, opportunities, high crime rate and a host of other social, economic, environmental, health problems, etc. All these are glaring and undeniable in our Nigerian society.

Corruption, mismanagement( both in the system and in our individual lives)illiteracy, lack of education, conflict and crisis, all have in no little measure left us in the rut. It is important we explore every means necessary to make progress. We must consider that an imperative.

okay let's do the maths guys...

First of all how much is our minimum wage in Nigeria? 18,000
Nysc 19800

Now World report says Poverty is living below $1.90.
$1.90 is about 700 naira, times 30days is 21,000 naira.


Now you can see that OUR MINIMUM WAGE is below the 21,000($1.90 for 30days).

Not to talk about the Millions of youths who are even Unemployed.

Nigeria is Finished.

INDIA is 3TIMES more POPULATED than NIGERIA, Yet we surpass them in POVERTY NUMBERS.

somebody I know went for an interview today a graduate for that matter with years of experience guess how much they could offer him 15k a month... bros Nigeria is not only finished Nigeria is as good as a dumping site
