Poverty Alleviation and the Church in Nigeria by Emmanuel T. Okogwa PDF Summary

Book Description: Poverty exists everywhere in the world where human beings live. No country or community is exempted from the global phenomenon of poverty. It is exemplified in the absence or denial of basic human necessities such as food, shelter, and clothing, which are needed for the enjoyment of the minimum standard of living. Other factors such as the availability of electricity, food security, good healthcare system, good roads, portable water, and other safety nets, have impact on human populations. However, the negative or positive effects of these factors depend on the ability of every country to sincerely confront the problem of poverty. While some countries have successfully utilized their available resources to reduce the impact of poverty on their citizens, others have been unable to achieve much progress. Some countries lack the resources to reduce poverty significantly. In the case of Nigeria, however, poverty and affluence co-exist. Therefore, to profile a meaningful solution to the poverty in the country, it is necessary to carefully examine the causes, nature and the consequences of the poverty in Nigeria despite the wealth of the nation. The book, Poverty Alleviation and the Church in Nigeria, examines the origin, evolution, and global concept of poverty; the Christian, capitalist, socialist and African traditional views of poverty; the exposition of the state of poverty in Nigeria; an overview of the socioeconomic policies and the consequences of poverty on the citizens, and the efforts made so far to reduce poverty in the country.
