Further Analysis:

Shocking Findings:
16.The number of distributed PVCs in five States in the Northwest
(Kano, Kaduna, Katsina, Kebbi and Jigawa)- 10, 527, 308; is equal in
number with those distributed in the entire eleven States of the South-south
and the Southeast zones (10, 593, 306). That is to say that whereas there are
10, 527, 308 PVCs holders in the five States of the Northwest zone alone, there
are 10, 593, 306 PVCs holders in the entire eleven States of the South-south
and the Southeast zones.
17. There
are 6, 678, 148 PVCs distributed in the troubled Northeast, whereas only 4,
378, 329 PVCs holders are available in the five peaceful States of the
Southeast.
18.The number of PVCs distributed as at 27th January
2015 in the 13 States of the Northwest and the Northeast(Boko Haram
insurgency area) is much higher than the total number of PVCs distributed in
the entire 17 States of the Southwest, the South-south and the Southeast zones.
That is to say that whereas 19, 473, 028 PVCs have been distributed in
the referenced 13 States of the two of the three geopolitical zones of the
North; only 16, 996, 840 PVCs have been distributed in the entire 17 States of
the South.
