Abstract

Poverty is profoundly endemic in many countries especially in less developed countries. In Nigeria, poverty is a reality that depicts the lack of food, clothes, education, and other basic amenities.

Severely poor people lack the most basic necessities of life to a degree that it can be wondered how they manage to survive. There are several effects and deficiencies associated with poverty in Nigeria.

One of the main effects of poverty is poor medical services, as is reflected in Nigeria’s high infant mortality and low life expectancy.

Although a lot of studies have been done on this issue, most of them focused on uni-dimensional poverty. This study therefore examined the multidimensionality of poverty in Nigeria using the 2013 Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) data.

This study employed the multidimensional poverty that was adopted by the World Bank in 2005.
Multidimensional concept of poverty analysis requires identification of, and the development of some indicators of poverty unlike the uni-dimensional approach, which only takes cognizance of the income or expenditure.

Introduction

The poverty problem in Nigeria has been noted to be a growing phenomenon and has widened its breadth and depth in the past few decades embracing more comprehensive conceptualizations.

Multidimensional poverty has captured the attention of researchers and policy-makers alike, to the compelling conceptual writings of Sen (1985) and the unprecedented availability of relevant data. (Alkire and Foster, 2008).

According to Sen’s (1985, 1992, 1999) theory of capabilities, there is unanimity about the Multidimensional Conception of Poverty and others whose arguments have essentially reshaped the way we think about poverty,

going beyond the notion of economic well-being embedded in the traditional approaches (uni-dimensional measure). Poverty is profoundly endemic in many countries especially in less developed countries.

In Nigeria, poverty is a reality that depicts the lack of food, clothes, education, and other basic amenities. Severely poor people lack the most basic necessities of life.
