Nigerians living in extreme poverty is presently 91 million, according to the World Poverty Clock.

Okay Nigeria understands between November 2018 to February 2019 three million Nigerians have slipped into extreme poverty.

According to a report by World Poverty Clock, 91.16 million Nigerians were living below a dollar a day as of February 13, 2019.

The World Poverty Clock ranked Nigeria the poverty capital of the world last June when it revealed that Nigeria had 87 million people living in poverty.
