Former Senator Shehu Sani has decried a report that 141 million Nigerians, 62% of the population, are expected to live below the poverty line by 2026. This comes despite States and Local Governments receiving more funds than ever. Sani calls it a 'time bomb' that could lead to a national social uprising. Will the government address this issue to prevent social unrest?
