These were 1,500 poor people in Italy, not the extremely poor in Nigeria. "As of 2018, it is estimated that the country with the most people living in extreme poverty is Nigeria, at 86 million." [2]
To put it in perspective, 1.500 is 0.00174418604 percent of 86,000,000, and that is only in Nigeria.
"World Data Lab now estimates that on New Year’s Day 2019, just under 600 million people across the world (excluding Syria) will live in extreme poverty. By 2030, this figure is expected to fall to some 436 million." [3]
At 600 million, about 6.97 times more than the 86 million in Nigeria, the percentage of 1,500 out of 600 million is 0.00025. This percentage would be less when those who are not extremely poor are also counted, like those invited to Bergoglio's World Day of the Poor lunch.

Bergoglio should stop with his histrionics, and be perfect. Jesus answered, “...to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor..... Then come, follow me.” [4]
An ordinary reply could be: "Jesus, are you kidding me? Who does that nowadays? Does the pope?"
