Thanks to the indispensable blog
Nigeria Health Watch for pointing us to the U.N. Development Report on Nigeria.
This quote from the Nigeria report says it all:
"The poverty problem in [Nigeria] is partly a feature of high inequality which manifests in highly unequal income distribution and differential access to basic infrastructure, education, training and job opportunities." - UNDP Human Development Report, 2008-2009
This report reinforces the idea that the faith community must be a front-line partner in addressing these tough issues. Vision Africa walks the walk in this regard, providing leadership training to young people and even generating skilled jobs and mentorship through our radio station Love 104.1 FM.
The full report is available here.
How can you help Nigeria grow with equity?
