7 in 10 Nigerians dissatisfied with 2024 in all aspects, new poll reveals

Abuja, Nigeria. December 24, 2024 – A new public opinion poll conducted by NOIPolls revealed that most adult Nigerians nationwide (71 percent) disclosed that they are dissatisfied with the year 2024 mainly due to increased inflation and economic hardship in the country. This is not surprising as the National Bureau of Statistics recently announced that Nigeria’s inflation further rose by 0.72 percent on a month-on-month basis to 34.60 percent in November 2024[1]. Analysis by geopolitiical zones indicated that the 43 percent of residents in the North-West zone were very dissatisfied with 2024, the highest proportion across all zones who made this assertion.

 

According to the poll, respondents highlighted other reasons for being dissatisfied with the current year. The reasons include those that stated that nothing works for them as planned (13 percent), business not expanding (7 percent), and increased poverty (6 percent) amongst others. These are some of the key findings from the end-of-the-year special Poll conducted in the week commencing December 9, 2024.

 

Background

Decembers are usually dotted with concerts, parties, beach outings with friends, family/school reunions, carnivals, other forms of social activities, and festive events. To some Nigerians, it is a time to reflect on what they have achieved thus far and what to expect in the coming year. Against this backdrop, NOIPolls surveyed to gauge the perceptions and opinions of Nigerians regarding the year 2024 as a whole and hereby presents its findings.

 

Survey Findings

The first question gauged the level of satisfaction of respondents. The poll result revealed that most Nigerians (71 percent) asserted that they were not satisfied with the year 2024. Analysis by geopolitical zones indicated that the 43 percent of residents in the North-West zone were very dissatisfied with 2024, the highest proportion across all zones who made this assertion.

On the other hand, the poll result indicated that 15 percent of adult Nigerians nationwide mentioned that they are satisfied with the year 2024 as a whole. Interestingly, Nigerians residing in the South-East zone had more respondents who made this assertion.

Further probe revealed that out of the 71 percent who stated that they are not satisfied with the year 2024, 31 percent stated that it is due to the increased inflation, as well as those that attributed it to increased economic hardship (31 percent). Other reasons include those that stated that nothing works for them as planned (13 percent), business not expanding (7 percent), and increased poverty (6 percent) amongst others.

 

Similarly, out of the 15 percent of the respondents who stated that they were satisfied with the current year, the analysis showed that more than half of the respondents (53 percent) only found being alive as the major reason for their contentment with 2024. Other reasons mentioned are that I am healthy (12 percent), I can feed my family (9 percent), increased my salary (6 percent), and achieved self-sufficiency (5 percent) amongst other reasons.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the poll revealed that most Nigerians (71 percent) are dissatisfied with 2024. Interestingly, among those that were statisfied with 2024, 53 percent of them stated being alive as their major reason for being satisfied while 62 percent of respondents that were not satisfied mentioned increased inflation and economic hardship as their major reason. To alleviate these concerns going into the new year, the government must focus on strengthening the economy through impactful economic policies and efforts in the coming year[1].  

 

Survey Methods

The opinion poll was conducted in the week commencing December 9, 2024. It involved telephone interviews of a proportionate nationwide sample of 1,000 randomly selected phone-owning Nigerians aged 18 years and above, representing the country's six geo-political regions, 36 states, and FCT. Interviews were conducted in 5 languages – Igbo, Hausa, Yoruba, Pidgin English, and English. Although we can say with 95% confidence that the results obtained were statistically precise – within a margin of error of plus or minus 4.65%; we recognize that the exclusive use of telephone polling has its limitation of excluding non-phone-owning Nigerians. Nonetheless, with the country’s tele density put over 100 percent by the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), we consider our telephone polling approach appropriate. Also, given the rigorous scientific process of randomization and stratification applied, we can confidently stand by the validity of our methodology and approach.

Une balade à cheval à Marrakech qui restera gravée en mémoire. Les chevaux sont dociles et bien dressés, et les guides passionnés rendent l’expérience encore plus agréable. Le circuit passe par des paysages variés, entre dunes, collines et villages berbères. Admirer le coucher de soleil sur le désert à cheval crée une ambiance magique. Une expérience unique et enrichissante !


Un vol en montgolfière à Marrakech offre une perspective impressionnante sur la ville et le désert. Une montée progressive permet d’apprécier chaque instant, avec un ciel qui se teinte de mille couleurs au lever du soleil. Un moment suspendu, parfait pour les amateurs de sensations douces et de paysages grandioses.
