Nigerians, this report is not the kind of news we wanted to wake up to. According to the latest World Bank assessment, poverty in Nigeria has climbed to a shocking 63% in 2025, even though inflation has been coming down. The big question the report is asking: why are things still this bad for ordinary households? The World Bank put it plainly: “Household incomes have not grown fast enough to offset still-elevated inflation.” They say structural problems like weak job creation and slow growth in agriculture are still hitting Nigerians hard, meaning the so-called economic improvements are not reaching the average person on the street. In simple terms: prices may be easing a bit, but people’s pockets are not getting fuller fast enough to match. The result? More families are slipping deeper into poverty. This is a serious reality check for the government and all of us. The economy needs to start creating real jobs and fixing the farms if we want to see actual change in people’s lives. We’ll be watching closely to see what steps will be taken next. Stay tuned, ReportNaija has you covered. #ReportNaija #NigeriaPoverty #WorldBank #NaijaEconomy #CostOfLiving
