133 million Nigerians Still Wallow In Poverty — Tinubu’s Aide

Published

on


The Senior Special Assistant to President Tinubu on Sustainable Development Goals, SDGs, Princess Adejoke Orelope-Adefulire, has stated that sixty-three per cent of Nigerians, or 113 million Nigerians are multi-dimensionally poor.

Adefulire made the statement during an advocacy and sensitization campaign in Kano and Ondo states on Monday, July 1, noting that the global community was way behind in achieving the SDGs.

Adefulire’s statement comes after the Multidimensional Poverty Index Report (2022) and the National Bureau of Statistics’ Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey Report (2022) revealed significant leves of poverty across states and geopolitical zones, with the north having a higher poverty rate than the south.

Adefulire said: “The global community is lagging behind in efforts to attain the Sustainable Development Goals, and Nigeria is facing various challenges.

”Therefore, it’s imperative for all stakeholders, particularly state and local governments, to accelerate progress.

“Nigeria is committed to achieving the SDGs, but we’re faced with issues such as Triple C Crisis – COVID, Climate Change, and Conflicts, which have put implementation off-track globally. Only 15% of SDGs targets are on track as of 2023.

“In Nigeria, 63% or 133 million people are still multi-dimensionally poor, with poverty levels varying significantly across states and geopolitical zones. Multidimensional poverty is higher in rural areas, and 65% of poor people live in the north, while 35% live in the south.

“The Federal Government has demonstrated strong commitment to implementing the SDGs, and we need sub-national governments to match these efforts. Institutional frameworks have been established to guarantee effective implementation, but we require a whole-of-society approach to achieve the SDGs.

“As we approach the 2030 deadline, we must recommit to accelerating SDGs’ implementation, especially at the state and local governments level. We need expertise and resources from all sectors to deliver on the SDGs.

“The SDGs require a whole-of-society approach and clearly cannot be achieved with stand-alone policies and projects. They must be carefully integrated into national and sub-national policies and development plans.”

An X user @I_Am_Ilemona said on Tuesday that the abductors were demanding a ransom of N300 million in exchange for their safe release.

“This phone call I just took broke my heart. The wife & 4 sons of a friend’s friend were kidnapped a few days ago in Kaduna. The kidnappers asked for a N300m ransom (which he doesn’t have), or they’ll kill his children.

“They killed his first son today. My heart is heavy.

“They dropped his boy’s body somewhere and told him to go get his lifeless boy. The boy was 14. They told him it’s a warning. They said they’ll kill the others. The surviving children are 12, 9 & 6,” he wrote on Tuesday.

ASP Mansir Hassan, the spokesperson for the Kaduna State Police Command, confirmed the incident to SaharaReporters on Wednesday evening, stating that the police had escalated their efforts to rescue the abducted family members.

Veteran entertainer, Charles Oputa aka Charly Boy has applauded moves to release, Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.

Posting on X, Charly Boy also cautioned Igbos sabotaging efforts against Kanu’s release.

 

According to Charly Boy: “I am not a Sowore fan but on Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s right, he got it right.

“Northerners can hate the Igbos all they want but they can Never Stop their Shine.

“To all the Saboteurs in Igbo land, there are people taking note, they see all that you scum bags do.

“For me, I am only waiting for the D day, cos I know it’s fast approaching.

Dia Fathers.”

NAF Airstrikes Eliminate Scores Of Terrorists In Borno

Published

on


Several terrorists have been neutralized by the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) fighter jets during an airstrike near Degbewa and Chinene in Borno State.

The strikes also destroyed numerous terrorist structures within the two hideouts in the Mandara mountains.

NAF spokesperson, Air Vice Marshal Edward Gabkwet, announced this in a statement on Thursday, July 4, confirming that the operations were carried out on July 3.

These airstrikes followed su*cide attacks in Gwoza, Borno State, five days earlier, which left 32 people dead and 52 others injured.

The Defence Headquarters (DHQ) had previously pledged that its troops would do everything necessary to eliminate the terrorists responsible for the attacks.

Gabkwet explained that the airstrikes were launched after several days of aerial surveillance over Chinene and Degbewa, which revealed “a consistent gathering of a large number of terrorists in the area, suspected to be sites for the manufacturing of Improvised Explosive Devices and storage.”

He added, “The terrorists were also observed loitering within the vicinity, clearly oblivious of what was to befall them, and probably confident that their location was safe and secured from any form of military bombardments.

“The airstrikes were thus authorized, with the aircraft bombarding the locations in several passes until the majority of the terrorists were eliminated. Others observed fleeing the location were taken out using cannons.”

Two vocalists from Texas and Oklahoma sued Cardi B, alleging that she exploited their material in her tune “Enough (Miami)” without a valid license.

According to insiders, Miguel Aguilar, also known as Kemika 1956, and Joshua Fraustro, or Sten Joddi, have revealed that Cardi B and her production team used portions from their 2021 song “Greasy Frybread” in her track.
