I have been wondering for a while what could the actual population of Nigeria be
Many claim census figures are beign manipulated and this has triggered Wild Estimate of the countrys population which places the Country at a population of about 200Million.So i Need all your opinions or suggestions on what Nigeria actual population could be.

195M
15M bandits.

Nigeria is barely 75m

Look at Niger Republic that has more landmass than Nigeria and has the same climate, terrain and biome as Northern Nigeria.
The population of Niger Republic that has more land mass than the entire Nigeria is 24.2m while Northern Nigeria is estimated at 70+m which is totally impossible

You see that those things are false.
Northern Nigeria + Middle Belt is at most 15m

South West is sparsely populated judging by landmass to people ratio. Except for the Lagos factor that drew many people to her region, it would have been almost population as the entire north but Lagos added like 4 extra million.
So, SW is at most 18m

SE is densely populated and need expansion except that Ndigbo are not violent.
SE is not more than 20m

South South is exactly like SW, hut most parts are more sparsely populated than SW.
So SS cannot be more than 12 million


In total, Nigeria is approximately 75 million.
This is the reality everybody will come to terms with once Nigeria officially dissolve.

Quote me anywhere.
