6:36 am
hello and welcome back to the 77 percent. this week we are in lagos, nigeria, more specifically where in muckle and informal area in this place. and so we're wondering how do those people who live in extreme poverty live side by side with some of the richest on the continent. and what does that disparity to swap society? well, i've got here a panel of very good looking people who are ready to speak to me. and i'm gonna start with henry who, what's for oxfam. this is the 1st time, but you're here michael, could just give me your views so far. what. what do you think i haven't quite seen if people are impoverish? as i'm seeing here today, i will say in an environment asa visited has some seen here today. i've been quite in lack of government present like i'm seeing here today is, is quite disheartening. i must say. all right, let me speak to henry because i wanted to ask him, having grown up, you grew up in local korea and what growing up there was light, so green of him. okay. for me out seeds, a privilege,
6:37 am
good to privilege. and it says that i had to, you know, try as much as was you, linda, by the do yes. going with parents difference. i to get that and definitely do really want to push you to do more, more in, in a scenario by your appearance to are normally very dictated on even the environment . you find yourself. people are not pushing dots, a level of education. and i told you the other yeah. tal is also true gen criminal . understood snow going to school. yeah. so boy, i'm just up what you might be inside to get that on the fright. he knew the la fight for me to make sure that i attended degree of education. right. so what you're describing hayes, what academics would say is a cycle of poverty j. daniel, is it something that you also experienced? no, you didn't grow up in local, but as an informal settlement as well. well, it was the experience similar to what we're observing minus similar, but not this extreme. because i mean coming from a place where you have to constantly provide for yourself. you have to constantly
6:38 am
do things for yourself, just like, oh, my kind of colleague said that the governments are not really interested in our well being. we've seen on government organizations come down to these communities just to take pictures because they want to post our social media. they want to make it look like they're doing something. so i think what is the real problem? it's not that we don't have the resources, but the problem is they really don't see this. people are a bit before before we before we get to the 2 of you, let me invite sir the other daniel. yes, we have 2 daniels and 2 henry. as i hope you can keep up where the gobs every year when the budget is read out, these a lot of money being pumped into the country. why isn't it getting here? it's been a systemic issue for people not to be able to for government are supposed to, kids are for the needs of people living is going to speak for to take care of their dear you so much greeting so much or problem of people not on a sunday funding there is need for people to be to be taken care of. so leadership is a major problem and that is all your local right. one, me,
6:39 am
it had something to say to me and then henry all gets and what, daniel, i say this is like this. i'm not developed, not because the government goes on with that issue developing my because the government and society legos involvement is bent on co, much allies in places like this. so places like these items slide by to government and com, right? that they have sold disappears to some government officials on that in 2 years. this, this is $115.00 going to be more loose. and then if that apple is inside, yes, you are going to see a fancy sta that is going to be sold for the sam rich people that are buying the sim assets that we have in nigeria. okay, let me ask henry, because having lived in this community, was that a fear that you had because i've had it said that, yeah, people don't know if tomorrow they went to wake up and their house is going to be under water. some of them though, really once you're in a video house, because you're scared of him by chimera. now to go my just common take all of us. he we so why am i doing this for the morning when i'm looking at it? if governments want him to, if i could just this, what i, what, okay, what has social life would? how did you want to keep surviving? because this week wash i meant, okay. then you sufficient water, eat yet,
6:40 am
going to take them out of what is the way i did. and then 3, let me, let me, let me ask for you for a 2nd here because based on this, on the, in the rooms you sit with is the plan to get rid of informal settlements like mccorkle. i'm not telling you that some of this is are not happening. are you getting me? but we, what i know right now do the present got know we have in lucas did is a very, very, as the proxy governor, like, you know, he's very and patsy. but the question is, why hasn't that governor brought schools, hospitals, police stations to this place if you think so highly of it, okay. when we talk about development, when we talk about said goods, it's not just an automatic thing or you get to me it's, it's, it's the text got dropped process. so for me, i hobbled, we are getting rid of these very please, because i know data sometimes in the future. anything can come more or you go to me . i know i don't, i don't understand that. so you don't develop it because of what might happen in
6:41 am
the future. no, no, no, i'm not saying it's not going to be different loops. i don't even know that the police ladies does as i'm just having the idea to do. okay, daniela. let me, let me, let me come to henry and daniel, you're itching, talk to me, talk to me, daniel. so it is over years. that's good. his muscles to nibble plant where government, she gently on how to miss, please. what is supposed to be the only don't get to your government and the news iran is just like this is we're ok we need to demolish is police what we need to find it, police or me to move even in in it or moving to people there is no sustainable plan . henry henry, what is it? okay, what was the time i was gonna post our list off as queues is trust me and he has gotta go get, you know, and thought, i'm not doing this because it all here while ago. but again, you say you see a committee like this is, is, is similar to the court area where we had like regular plain project,
6:42 am
lance lance we again from to see from to what's as, why can begin this land from this water. and i handed over back to the people, and i give them access to the see when they come fish, because it not boardman piracy. it'd be the contact parity that we're getting for themself under the, for the, on good. think of the big lamps in danger already already 5 big below now that the comfortable spend your wealth in the lifetime and did a community existing like this so so let the good kind of wanted to hello to heaven for that out that i see. yeah. gotcha. and what, yes, area i was gonna say something or if you want change, there is consequences for change or you got to me. so it's not like nearby i am defending the government or whatsoever. if they're going to develop these ready, please, it is not sonton of to yes. because this place is what are lot. are you getting resort? is something i would take years. i just am time i listen to it depends on the kind of dilemma luc enough's. are we talking about developing the sense that we want to demolish if they're looking at, of course,
6:43 am
if they're gonna develop the very place it's has to got done, because there's not it for you told in our bits. yes. okay, so i'm sorry we have to wrap up and so i'm a got to ask for solutions. i need to know what the ne julian government can do, what african government can do to close the gap between the rich and the poor. let's hear from you daniel. we need to festival, the government needs to calm down into this, please, and make them feel love for he needs to be in part. definitely. when you talk about people from this place, the only perceived them to be streets, kids to cause violence, of course, nuisance. and these things aren't intentional. so for the government to see change for the government to see our progress, the need to bring this people into the system. fantastic. daniel, let's hear from you. okay, so i think going to show some search commitments. mitchell, people, you are, the moment is levy before them. the resources that are meant for them, please let it gets or do make them feel like they belong to the larger society. okay. henry, you said something earlier about the richest man not being able to spend his wealth
