from my observation, an average family with 2 children live a happier life than an average family with five kids. Pls don't quote me if you are not married

Our population is not higher than our resources. Look at our landmass, it is scantily populated.

Ekealterego:

When the population is higher than the resources available then the social and economic sustainability of the country is threatened. Note that land space is finite and we can't do what the Europeans did in the 16th centuries and beyond; exploring and conquering "new worlds" like America and Australia. Except we by any stroke of luck discover a habitable planet in space.

Igboesika:
This is less important for now.
Let's have independence ist, death penalty for any corrupt Biafra public office holder, then other things can follow. If we can manage our resources very well, population shouldn't be a problem because population has more advantage than disadvantage. Majority of us are Christians, we are not Muslims that marry more wives which gives rise to more children
Agumbankembu.

Who told you it is less important? So you want the population to rise to uncomfortable levels first before you realise something should be done? To prevent such calamity you need to take precautions while the population is still lower. Taking measures when the population has already gotten extreme is quite difficult to handle. Just THINK, THINK

our problem is not population...

our problem is management....

When management fails do you think it is wise to keep reproducing carelessly? Nigerians are not even helping themselves. If they know the government is failing in its responsibility the wise thing to do is limit their reproduction rate but they wouldn't.

1. Increase in the size of market as extra demand will be generated which will stimulate investment.
2. Avaliability of needed manpower. Expanding industries can recruit new workers to the labour force. Not to mention manpower for defence. Etc

Nnamdi kanu is an intelligent man with a great insight...if biafra eventually is a homogenous entity(interms of language),then we must control our pop because we have a very small land mass

Wrong. What we need here in Nigeria is to put in place better management system. This we can achieve through human capacity development and the elimination or reduction of corruption.

It is okay to have one or two kids maximum. But Nigerians keep having 5, 6, 10, 20 kids in spite of the lack of management or economic progress. The people alive are difficulty in surviving and they keep churning out babies anyhow. Is that not foolishness?

All these problems you listed can be taken care of by just ensuring that our people are well educated and trained. A society with well trained manpower can deal with any situation. The problem is when you have all these people and they don't know what to do to help themselves.

Kingsley1000:
some of the things that will befall us if we didn't heed to Nnamdi kanu's suggestion



1. More mouths to feed.
2. Lower standard of living.
3. Poverty.
4. Overcrowded cities.
5. Sickness and spreading of diseases.
6. Insufficient natural resources to provide adequate
goods and services.
7. Inadequate facilities, such as housing, medical etc.
8. Problem of starvation and malnourished population.
9. Education facilities may not meet the requirements of
the entire population.
10. Unemployment.
11. Higher crime rate due to unequal distribution of wealth
and insufficient financial resources.
12. Environmental pollution. Trees are felled to make
space for housing facilities.
13. Agricultural production is insufficient to meet the
requirements of the entire population, which results in
higher prices.
14. Money is diverted to ensure that the population is fed,
rather then carrying out fundamental research.
15. Lower life expectancy.
16. People living in rural areas are not provided with
employment opportunities.
17. Large number of people lives in unhygienic
conditions.
18. Birth rate is high.
19. Due to lack of proper medical facilities death is also
very high. People succumb to various diseases.
20. Child labor is common. To sustain themselves
families force their children to work, rather than send
them to school.

scorpio2013:

But since the there is no "better management" in place yet why not take simple measures as limiting birth rate till whenever the better management has been put in place? You want to give birth to kids who will come to the world just to starve and die?

Population should increase only when wealth has increased

To me, before a couple should raise any kid, a certain investment/business outside their jobs should be established to sustain that kid in case of unforseen circumstances that are unpleasant.

IN SUMMARY

Our people should only have more than 2 kids when they have established alternative incomes for their extra kids.

For the African man?? Impossible. An african will always delight in his children as his wealth.

You apply what best suits your situation. Those robots maybe used in areas with low population. While those with high population can make use of good old manual labour.

How will wealth increase without human beings? human beings create wealth not robots.

Why didn't your parents produce 20 kids in order to increase wealth.?

The more kids you have the more expenses you incur.

Therefore, it is best to increase your income first through alternative incomes before you increase your expenses


This is why the North is filled with wretched people.

There is no perfect system anywhere in the world, you can only improve on what you have as the need arises.Besides, our kids are not starving. We have a lot of fertile land to cultivate and feed ourselves.

No, the north is filled with poor people because of illiteracy and maybe laziness. My grand parents had seven kids and they are all doing well.
