Nigeria has the highest number of people living on less than $1.90 a day — Financial Times

 Financial Times said Tuesday, Dec 22, that Nigeria is the nation with the highest number of poor people living on less than $1.90 a day.

 

The publication added that Nigeria is at risk of becoming a failed state, following the spate of kidnappings, killings, insecurity and violation of human rights.

 

The international publication also stated in the article that the Nigerian government has lost control of the country.

 

Suggesting solutions to Nigeria’s problem, Financial Times said: "President Muhammadu Buhari must seek to draw a line in the sand. He must redouble efforts to get a grip on security. He also needs to restore trust in key institutions, among them the judiciary, the security services and the electoral commission, which will preside over the 2023 elections."
