You’re not sharp..

This stats is proportional to the population of each region..

Oyo state alone is almost the population of SE which makes SW a region with higher population than SE. Numbers would always be different. Besides that, are Igbos not among the poor counted people in the west? As in, they didn’t count poor Ibo people in the west or all the Ibos in the west are rich?

NE is number one because of high population only. It doesn’t mean Ibos are richer than Hausa/Fulani..

Where did you get your data and statistics from?

Our major preoccupation should be how to get the South East out of any list that has to do with poverty, literacy, open defecation, internally displaced people, low capital, low rate of employment, low rate of growth, malnutrition etc. If there was no civil war ,the generation of the baby boomers would have gotten South East out of this , so now everyone has to put hands on deck to get the East of of such list.

That's fact I pointed out

You cannot victimization hues to manipulate people. It's stale. Just grow up already.

I don't want to read comments further, because there are people here that STATISTICS ARE ONLY CORRECT WHEN IT FAVOURS THEM.

Use your brain,sir
There will never be anytime that Igbos will not have poor people more than the Yorubas who are the richest tribe in Africa.
Yorubas control the building materials market and the fuel chain market in Nigeria couple with all other sectors very important to the lives of Nigerians.

SW had always been the region with the lowest poverty since the creation of Nigeria.
SW holds the highest poor migrants from all over Nigeria especially SE and the North.
Almajiris and beggars from the North and SE that have invaded the rich SW are in millions and all of them are counted in the stats.

If only they can do poverty stats based on ethnicity,Yorubas will always be the lowest.

Travelling they say is part of education.. the moment you start travelling, your eyes will open to so many hidden things.

The Nupes I for one never knew had that much population in Nigeria till I started interacting with them.. they are in Kwara and Niger State (which is more than x3 the entire South East region).

In Anambra, the Igalas have huge numbers.. core Igbos are in Abia, Enugu and Imo. Anambra is mixed, Ebonyi have their own dialect and attimes claim not to be Igbos. Even the Igbos from Abia, Anambra, Imo and Enugu do not regard Ebonyi people as real Igbos.. So tell me how the Igbo population will match that of Nupes who spread across big States in North Central.

Lastly, I separated the Fulanis from Hausas simply because they are different people, different in physique, body build and mentality, however they share similar culture due to years of interaction and inter-marriage between the two tribes.
Ordinarily, I would have listed Hausa/Fulani as 1 followed by Yorubas in 2nd place but for clarity sake, Hausas are the majority while Fulanis are more of minority in of population.

Typical Yoruba hate speech.
Sorry, I can't waste anymore of my time engaging you.

Recent report of percentage of household in severe poverty Northwest is highest and lowest is Southeast region
Nlfpmod

This is not an argument na. Those that control trade and services should have lowest poverty rate.

See the way ebonyi and anambra indigines control phone accessories. Same way enugu and IMO indigines control steel here.

The money goes around.

Southwest(Yorubas) control Building Materials market in Nigeria? Seriously?

Even the Building Material market in all of Southwest cities are controlled by Igbos.

Stop capping shit

Pls,tell me the locations or location where Igbos sell building materials like iron rods,cement,blocks,woods,ply woods,nails,paints,wire mesh,trowels,sand,gravels,ceilings,gates,aluminium windows,doors etc in Lagos or even Abuja or anywhere in Nigeria.


Even in the North, South South and South East,Yorubas are the dominant group selling building materials.

danijesus:
Southwest is poverty capital of the south😁

A small caveat. The only reason why the southwest numbers are 3.5% is because of the large number of southeasterners living there. Without Igbo people the southwest wouldn't look much different from the north.

I bet you are typing this from under one Lagos bridge with a drooling mouth.

There has never been anytime that Igbos poverty is less than Yoruba because Yorubas are inarguably the richest tribe in Africa.
There is no rich Igbo person anywhere that is as rich as Davido talkless of Mike Adenuga,Alakija,Tope,Ogunlesi and almost uncountable Yoruba billionaires that abound both in Nigeria and abroad.

And yet they can't stay in South East
Funny IPOB people.

hahaha this is the joke of the century and average Yoruba man behaviour always wanting to prove they are better than the Igbo continue you hear

Yes,Davido,Wizkid etc are richer.
It might not be all your mediocre billionaires but most of those you call billionaires who do not even have up to 10 million dollars

Just imagine the audacity. The biggest steel village in West Africa is in PH. Who controls the market?
One of the reasons inner galaxy located their company at AbA.

Says by a man that has never left his brown roof house in ogbmosho.

Putinofrussia:


What is the name of the steel village?

Even in PH,the steel market there is dominated by Yorubas.
Igbos,Hausas or any other ethnic groups do not deal in steel but just a handful of them.
Lagos has the biggest steel markets in Nigeria and they are 95% dominated by Yoruba.

Everybody knows the sectors Igbos dominate in Nigeria.The sectors Yoruba dominate are very much more than where Igbos dominate.

Igbos do not have business acumen but they will still argue.
It is cocaine that had been the pillar of most Igbo businesses people.Not all o.
I have lived amongst Igbos for a long time.

You self don't know the name of the steel village market and you are saying that Yoruba control the markets ? Control which markets ?

You don do agbero work finish in Lagos,talkmore of travelling to PH to go market, open a shop and do business When did that one start happening You guys always give yourselves false and imaginary glory

The steel village market in pH is in elelenawo by PH/Aba expressway. Very close to Aba. Just 40km to Aba. Traders from Aba dominate and control the market due to its proximity to Aba.

You don't even know the market and the address yet you are saying Yoruba control it. Control wetin

Fake satistics. I have stayed in the east, the level of poverty is rate is high. The only thing you see in the east are empty mansion, nothing more. Go on the street in the south east especially in local government area, the population of mad people is equal to that of normal people, till today in some community in the east, no electricity nor pipe Bourne water. The only thing you see their is commerce. Nothing else.

who is suppose to provide them with electricity, Government, who is supposed to provide them with pipe burn water government, so they are actually right about government negligence so they ventured into commerce and became better than those who enjoys government petronage and you are here agguing, are you not ashamed black man

Is it that you guys are densely ignorant or you just want to be mischievous?
How is Oyo State with a population of 5.5 million have more population than the entire southeast when Anambra state alone has a population of of over 4 million?

Oyo is has a projected population of 7,9 million,is the sixth most populous state in Nigeria

These are people who started with just 20 pounds after the war which was idea from SW.They remain the greatest enemies of SE if you have ever lived near them as neighbours or had business dealings. They are filled of envy if you are successful around them.They are double face unlike the north. They are the real Muslim fanatics up north.You can from any hausa man
