Additionally

The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) faced several challenges in their implementation. Some of the key challenges included inadequate funding, lack of political will, disparities in progress between countries, and difficulties in measuring progress accurately. Additionally, there were challenges in addressing complex issues such as poverty, gender inequality, and environmental sustainability, which required comprehensive and coordinated efforts from governments, organizations, and communities. Despite these challenges, the MDGs played a significant role in raising awareness and mobilizing action towards global development.

Some specific challenges related to the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) include poverty reduction, improving maternal health, combating HIV/AIDS, promoting gender equality, and ensuring environmental sustainability. These are just a few examples, but there are many more!

‘ In the last 6 months alone, Naira has been devalued twice as Nigeria battles to manage its currency pressure due to the oil price crash of 2020′

While the exchange rate has been devalued by every single one of Nigeria’s last 5 CBN Governors between 1982 and today, some Governors have fared far better than others in the management of the foreign exchange under their tenure.
If you were to guess the one economic problem that every Nigerian and business has struggled with regardless of their wealth status in the country, it would be the persistently declining exchange rate. In the last 38 years, the United States Dollar value has soared 55,998 percent against Naira in the official exchange rate market, moving from N0.67 to N379 as at Friday market close. This unequivocally puts Nigerian Naira among the worst performing currencies in the world in the last 4 decades.

The most superior exchange rate management performance was achieved by Sanusi Lamido Sanusi who under his stewardship the Central Bank managed to keep annual devaluation rate around 1.2 percent during his 5- year tenure as CBN Governor. Lamido Sanusi was CBN Governor between 2009 and 2014, during this period crude oil price rallied 38 percent from $80 to $110, proving the required earnings support to ensure Naira stability. Under Sanusi, dollar exchange rate moved from N148 to N157.

Closely behind Sanusi was Charles Soludo who achieved an average annual devaluation of just 2.1 percent during his 5-year tenure between 2004 and 2009. While Soludo is widely remembered for the banking industry recapitalization, he is not given due credit with his impressive management of the Naira despite the crash in crude oil price in 2008. Crude oil price rallied 143 percent between 2004 and 2008 before crashing by 41 percent between 2008 and 2009 during the Global Financial Recession. In 2004, crude oil traded at $37.66, rose to $91.48 in 2008 and fell to $53.48 in 2009. Under Soludo, the dollar exchange rate moved from N133 to N147.
Joseph Oladele Sanusi who also spent 5 years at the helm of CBN between 1999 and 2004 was the third best Exchange rate manager amongst the past 5 CBN Governors. During his tenure, the average annual devaluation rate was just 7 percent although crude oil price grew by 127 percent during his 5 year tenure. Slow devaluation pace of this nature now seems like a lifetime ago considering the rate at which Naira has been devalued in recent times.

Under the stewardship of Godwin Emefiele, the current CBN governor, average annual devaluation in his active 6-year tenure is 15.8 percent. In the last 6 months alone, Naira has been devalued twice as Nigeria battles to manage its currency pressure due to the oil price crash of 2020. When Emiefele began his tenure, dollar exchange rate moved from N157.3 to N379 on Friday. Crude oil price has fallen roughly 60 percent since Emefiele took charge of CBN.

The worst 2 exchange rate managers were Abdulkadir Ahmed and Paul Agbai Ogwuma who under their tenures, average annual devaluation rates were 37.2 percent and 27.2 percent respectively. Ahmed led the Central Bank between 1982 and 1993, during this period, dollar exchange rate moved from N0.67 to N21.88, marking the worst decade for Nigeria’s Naira. Ogwuma was Governor between 1993 and 1999 and the dollar exchange rate moved from N21.88 to N94.88 at the end of his tenure.

Poverty is a significant issue in Nigeria, with a large number of people living below the poverty line. According to recent data, around 40% of the population, which is approximately 83 million people, are considered to be living in poverty. This means they struggle to meet their basic needs, such as food, shelter, and healthcare. Efforts are being made to address this issue through various poverty alleviation programs and initiatives. It’s important to raise awareness and support those in need to create a more equitable society.

! Poverty in Nigeria is a significant issue that affects millions of people. According to recent statistics, around 40% of the population, which is approximately 83 million people, live in poverty. This means they struggle to access basic necessities like food, clean water, healthcare, and education.

The poverty rate is higher in rural areas compared to urban areas, with about 52% of rural dwellers living in poverty. Additionally, the poverty rate is higher in the northern regions of Nigeria compared to the southern regions.

Unemployment also contributes to poverty in Nigeria. The unemployment rate stands at around 33%, with a higher rate among young people. Limited job opportunities and underemployment make it challenging for individuals and families to escape poverty.

It’s important to address these challenges by implementing strategies such as creating more job opportunities, improving access to education and vocational training, and providing social welfare programs. By focusing on these areas, we can work towards reducing poverty and improving the lives of Nigerians. 🇳🇬💪

To tackle poverty in Nigeria, it requires a comprehensive approach involving multiple stakeholders. Here are a few strategies that can make a difference:

1. Economic Empowerment: Promote job creation and entrepreneurship by providing skills training, access to capital, and business support to individuals and communities.

2. Education and Skills Development: Enhance access to quality education and vocational training programs, equipping people with the skills needed for better employment opportunities.

3. Social Safety Nets: Establish social welfare programs that provide financial assistance, healthcare, and other essential services to vulnerable populations, ensuring a basic standard of living.

4. Agricultural Development: Invest in the agricultural sector to boost food production, increase farmers’ income, and improve rural livelihoods.

5. Infrastructure Development: Improve access to basic infrastructure like roads, electricity, and clean water to stimulate economic growth and enhance living conditions.

6. Women Empowerment: Promote gender equality and empower women by providing equal access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities.

7. Good Governance: Enhance transparency, accountability, and the rule of law to combat corruption and ensure efficient utilization of resources for poverty reduction initiatives.

8. Collaborative Partnerships: Foster partnerships between the government, civil society organizations, and the private sector to leverage resources, expertise, and knowledge for effective poverty alleviation efforts.

By implementing these strategies and working together, we can make progress in reducing poverty and improving the lives of people in Nigeria.
