This paper examines empirically the role of household endowments in determining poverty in Nigeria between 1985 and 1996. Using data from the national consumer surveys of 1985, 1992 and 1996, our results show that household endowments are significant determinants of poverty in Nigeria either among rural or urban households. Out of all these endowments, human capital assets stand as the most important determinants.

The results indicate that education is a much more important determinant of participation for females than for their male counterparts, as well as for the public than for the private sector, relative to self-employment.

We adopt the conjectural variation approach for the analyses of competition. In this perspective, we estimate a simultaneous equation model, formed by a cost equation and a supply equation, the latter containing a behavioral parameter to identify and assess the market conduct of banks. Our finding is that the estimated degree of competition is usually lying between the perfectly competitive and perfectly collusive values, but above the Cournot values indicating a fairly competitive pattern of behaviour. Large banks have been characterized by more competitive conduct. Also, region-wide and Lagos/West regional banks exhibit stronger competitive conduct.

In 1996, more than 50 per cent of Cameroonians were poor, as against 40 per cent in 1983/84. However, the 2001 survey on household living standards indicates a declining trend with approximately 40.2 per cent of the population affected by poverty. Unfortunately, this global improvement is characterized by a slight chance in inequalities between the various income groups of the population. Between 1983 and 1996, income inequality moved from 0.49 to 0.44 and subsequently to 0.41 in 2001. The indirect tax structure has a role to play in inequality reduction policies. Using the 1983/84, 1996 and the 2001 Cameroon household surveys, this study reveals that the indirect tax reforms of 1994 and 1999 have been generally prop-poor.

Moreover, the government puts in place a cost recovery system; that drove individuals away from “modern” health institutions. But as the government increased its spending on social services in the second half of the 1990s, we sought to know if the rather modest increase in health expenditures was targeted to the poor, using a benefit incidence analysis. The concentration curves of the imputed benefit revealed a high degree of progressivity globally, as well as over the milieu of living, regions, and types of uses, although less progressive in rural arrears and for diseases other than those reported.
