LET US TACKLE POVERTY IN NIGERIA


Tackling poverty in Nigeria is not a one-day job. But it is one that requires the efforts of everyone. We need to emphasize on the need for Nigerians to begin to look beyond discriminating one another- tribalism, the rich taking advantage of the poor to get richer- is that not exploitation?

And we are not doing anything to help each other-co-operation if we must move on!

The level of tribalism, exploitation, greed, lack of co-operation contributes to the material poverty and the poverty of the mind in our society. We need to grow up, we need to come together and stand up against poverty!

Reduction of poverty begins with a reorientation of individuals from their hitherto unhealthy and unhelpful ideology and concept which had held them captives over the years. Thereafter they would be able to listen to progressive developmental suggestions and ideas that would take them to the next level. It is after this level that money, resources and connections can make sense and productive. Davids

You are absolutely right sir. Only God get help us in Nigeria. And if every individual will contribute positively on the growth of the country’s economy and create rooms for others. Nigeria is a rich and a great country. We just need good leadership and a progressive mindset.
