HERE YOU GO 10 Poorest Countries in The World (All in Africa and Sierra Leone is one of them) Even that most corrupt countries in Africa are far better than Sierra Leone . Why? According to a new index developed by Oxford University and the United Nations, Sierra Leone under President Ernest Koroma is ranked among the 10 poorest countries on earth. You probably heard or seen President Koromas false propaganda machine ( the same propaganda machine being used on Ebola resulting in many undocumented infections and deaths ) say that Sierra Leone has been one of the fast growing economy in the world recording very high growth rate not just in Africa but the world as well. Yet the new measurement known as the Multidimensional Poverty Index, or MPI, that will replace the Human Poverty index in the United Nations’ annual Human Development Report says that Sierra Leone among the 10 most poorest countries in the world despite billions of donor funds, the diamond, oil and mineral resources( Sierra Rutile, Africa Minerals, London Mining ), we are people who are MPI poor in the world. This comes as more international analysts have also began to question the accuracy of the Sierra Leone government’s economic growth and less corruption claims. To expose the propaganda making rounds on the news and internet , below is the poorest position of Sierra Leone : 1. Niger 2. Ethiopia 3. Mali 4. Burkina Faso 5. Burundi 6. Somalia 7. Central African Republic 8. Liberia 9. Guinea 10. Sierra Leone 10. Togolese Republic It is a truly backward country, situated in the west of Africa. Here the people’s occupation is agriculture or farming. The per capita income of Togolese is about $800 which is too low for the people to live and survive well. 9. Congo Africa Congo Africa is situated in the central Africa, yet another poorest country out there. The concept of being rich has never been originated in this land since the day it came into being. The estimated per capita income of Congo is $760 and the people usually depend upon external helps for survival. 8. Zimbabwe Despite of the fact that Zimbabwe has had been a prominent country in different national and international games especially cricket, it still looks for better life standards. More than 70 percent people of Zimbabwe live in small and miserable villages. They have no education and no jobs. Per capita amount of Zimbabwe is approximately $700. 7. Malawi Malawi is a small country with respect to its area. It is situated close to Africa and need better healthcare and education facilities. The people of Malawi usually die of poor health systems and bad hygienic environment. It is strongly needed that they are provided with the solutions of their economical and financial problems on an immediate basis. The estimated per capita of Malawi is $650. 6. Niger Although Niger is not a too poor nation but it’s per capita is still not that satisfactory as it should be. Here about 60 percent people live in villages and 40 percent in cities. Most of the population of Niger is into agriculture and business in the cities, while those who live in villages have poor medical and educational facilities. The approximate per capita of Niger is $600. 5. Afghanistan: Since the day Afghanistan came under American’s war threat, it became a poor nation. Almost all the people living in Afghanistan are jobless, except a few who are doing jobs at some America based company offices. Afghanistan is very behind in the race of progress and prosperity with per capita amount of about $550. 4. Madagascar Just like Afghanistan, Madagascar has always been under threat of Russian attacks and wars. This is might be the reason for its lack of opportunities and better lifestyle. The people here are usually jobless and seek external NGOs’ helps for their livelihood. Its per capita is estimated to be $500. The USA Army Troops, however, try to help improve the lifestyle of the people of this country. 3. Sierra Leone The government of Sierra Leone is well facilitated and rich but there are no opportunities or financial support for the public. Unfortunately, the education system of Sierra Leone is really very poor and it is said to be the major cause of putting this nation behind the race of development. Its per capita is approximately $400. 2. Eritrea Eritrea is a nation with numerous natural resources and blessings. Various precious resources like oil, coal, gas, uranium, gold and silver are available under the earth of this country. What a surprising fact that still it is a poor nation. The reason for it is said to be the poor government management and the habit of people of lying lazy and depending upon external helps for survival. I must say that if these people start working by their own and dig-up those natural resources, then Eritrea can become an economically and financially strong nation. Unfortunately it does not seem to be happen in the near future and this country’s per capita is really very down with about $200. 1.
