Poverty alleviation schemes only end up producing more poor people, and elevating poverty

You truly cannot alleviate poverty using poverty alleviation programmes.


All these mal-educated half-baked politicians and institutions will never learn. By this time tomorrow, another dum.b politician would start churning out MARUWA, bicycle, grinding machine and typewriter in the name of poverty alleviation.

okay... LAGOS is out!

Better luck to those that'll apply. Meanwhile, go in prepared state with the submission of your well written CV. Check my signature for some samples as guide to writing an undeniable one.

Good.

Qualified Nigerians should apply.

The hypocritical hate-bred group called ipad will attempt discouraging others with their senseless hate-filled noise, only to start making efforts at the background.

This is the area where there will be vast job opportunities and if it is transparent alot of youth will be engaged but the 5 years farming experience part though

Next please

Ayam interested but I don't have land for farming

Nice one sir

It will create only short term "dis-opportunities". I know people who got this grant some time ago. Where are they today? In fact, one built a cat fish farm in his compound. He ended up eating it all.

The whole equipment and all are in complete RUIN today. I could get pictures to prove this.

These programmes aren't sustainable. I wonder why an institution like World Bank keep sending dollars without results.

These guys won't learn. Just fix the country, fix the country and jobs will pop up from thin air! Jobs will be creating jobs on an automatic mode.


On a second note, I think the 5 years experience is a way to delete desperate applicants without ion. I'm sure they must have taken a market survey and found that the previous schemes were complete failures.

I was on it but i had to stop the application because they requested for land papers to be ed. i got enough land for farming but no papers.

Do you have land in Kaduna? Zaria precisely?

Jobless kids wasting away their life on social media will pretend they don't see this.

Instead of taking advantage of this lofty program, they'd rather moan, whine and wail away their life.

See as the thread is so quiet! If na Buhari's news, dem go dey masturbate upandan.
