Nigeria At 54: Poverty Rate Unacceptable, Say Atiku


Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar  has observed that after 54 years of independence, the ordinary Nigerians were still lamenting what independence meant to their lives because of the widening gap between the leaders and the people, the rich and the poor.

In a statement issued in Abuja by his media office, the former Vice President noted that many Nigerians were concerned about how democratic governance has changed the quality of their lives for the better.
 
He regretted that the rate at which poverty is ravaging Nigeria is inconsistent with the vast resources available to Nigeria.
