Opis

Nigeria remains one of the countries of the world endowed with arable land and human resources. Incidentally, the severity of poverty in Nigeria is equally glaring when other indicators and services as well as development are put into consideration. There is endemic poverty, hunger, unemployment as well as dis empowerment of a large chunk of the population. In Benue State, poverty has been on the increase, this is as a result of ineffective Government with leaders betraying the trust of the people and the people have no say on how they are governed and how accountable their government is to them. In salvaging this situation, all hands need to be on deck if poverty must be eradicated not only in Benue state but in Nigeria at large as well as adequate funding of poverty alleviation programs.
