How many children would you want to give birth to in a country like NIGERIA considering the economic realities?

I think 3 is an ideal figure.

What say you?

At most 2 preferably a boy n a girl.
9ja economy sucks now, when things look up, I might reconsider my stand

I‘m ok with 2.

Depends on how capable u r.....financialy and otherwise

Half

'ld say 2 but the way things are going in Naija the ideal no will soon be between 0-1.

6 i have my reasons

dat na slowpoke o

Not just a max of 3, min of 2
Well spaced in between

akintun: Half

dat na slowpoke

If U really want a future for your siblings, 2 is enough. Breeding children like pigs is of a poverty/ignorant mentality. I checked thru d list of the richest men in africa #forbes, and the person w highest no of children on the list is 3. Just someone had 4. Obama has 2, clinton has 1. #he that has ears let him hear what the spirit is saying!!!

For me, it depends on who wins 2015

2 boys and a girl. OK for me...

Nigerian economy is nt 2 gud wt 2many children in a family considering d state it's in now. 3 wil b ok 4 me. Wot do i wnt 2 do wt 2many children. Abi i wan sell dem?

Maximum of 3.

Nobody will die, for those that usually say if witch/enemies delete some.

Obama has only two.

No witch.

3 sounds just perfect

In a typical 9ja setting 10 boys wil be okey 4me!one wil be policeman,army,navy,custom,air force,immigration,civil defence officers,barrister,pastor and a politician!den i wil be doin any how cos nobdy go fit chanllege me,wen i gather al these ppl.

the number of children u shld have doesn't necessarily have to depend on ur financial muscle. Shikena!!

3 is ok for me...

2 minimum, 3 Max.

2 for now and after another 10years would probably add a final one.

Na una type dey born alimajeri for North.

And we re 9 already n dad is just 47 with 4 wives

An adage in Yoruba says “OMO BERE OSHI BERE“
Meaning plenty children, plenty poverty...
Amazingly, it is poor people that give birth more like rats!
SMH

It is not all about the money at hand. It is more about the psychologeability of running a family and coming out with the expected result. The lesser the number of kids the better the result. It is easier to control 2 kids than 20 'pikins'. I believe in just 2.

Maximum of 2 for me with about 3-4years spacing in between them and I don't care if they come as only boyz or only girlz but I will be most grateful if it were a boy and a girl. I have so much to achieve in Life and I don't want family distractions to come in between me, my family and Purpose in life!

See as you dey list am, as if na u get 9ja.

One will also join BOKO HARAM lol.

No worry FG will give u one community for u and ur one mans squad.

@Post

In my humble opinion, 2 children are sufficient. Anything more than 2 is pushing it. You don't want to multiply like a rat and later the kids will grow up and become 419 internet scammers, street urchins, ritualists, ashawos in far away Italy or run after married Nigerian big men for recharge cards and upkeep money.

one is enuf for me..at most TWO...

2boys 2 girls. Incase if my enemies wey dey vex sey I still dey breath attack 1 the others continue with dis struggle wey we dey so. I wonder how some people will just sit down and be jealous of someones progress. If queen Elizabeth be Nigerian her generations for don delete finish.
