The National Bureau of Statistics, on Thursday, said Nigeria has at least one hundred and thirty-three million multi-dimensionally poor people.

The NBS, in its latest National Multidimensional Poverty Index Report, 63 per cent of Nigerians are poor due to a lack of access to health, education, and living standards, alongside unemployment and shocks.

That is, the figure was derived in more than one dimension of the four measured.

The Statistician-General at the NBS, Semiu Adeniran, was the first time they would conduct a standard multidimensional poverty survey in Nigeria.

He said:

“The survey was implemented in 2021 to 2022 and it is the largest survey with a sample size of over 56,610 people in 109 senatorial districts in the 36 stated of Nigeria.”

The United Nations Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Nigeria, Matthias Schmale, also said:

“Multidimensional poverty is more pronounced in rural areas where 72 per cent of people are poor compared to urban areas where we have 42 per cent.

“Gender disparity continues to affect the population with one in seven poor people living in a household in which a man has completed high school but the woman has not.”
