Vice President Prof. Yemi Osinbajo yesterday said there are 110 million poor Nigerians.
He added that some past polices and planning, including budgeting, did not reflect the needs and conditions of the people, who have become disempowered.
He spoke while receiving the Alumni Association of the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPPS), in Abuja.
Expressing concern about extreme poverty in the country, Osinbajo said two third of the population had become disempowered following the policy formulation in the past.
