If FG is able to pull this through, this will be the one and only achievement of this administration.

With an uncontrolled population growth like ours and very clueless and insensitive leaders in power, there's no need to imagine how hell looks like, Nigeria could be an epitome of hell in the next few decades.

How about number of children per men? If you want to limit the number of children woman have, it only makes sense to do so with men too seeing that a lot of times, men are the people who decide for the family

The logic is that men are polygamous.

So their many different wives have a limit to their children allocation.

This will be a welcome development if implemented. We can't continue to recycle poverty by breeding like duck and making the country headquarters of poverty and wretchedness. It's wickedness to birth children that you can't cater for.

thank you for this.

It is men impregnating women, so, they ought to limit the amount of children per father as well. What if they limit it to three and the man wants more kids? He will now go and remarry?

I wonder if anyone thought this idea through

Is that a threat What fg need to do is to come out with a better plan in this "ergp"

Start from the north. That is the region that manufacture pikins anyhow that turn out to become almajiris who end up as terrorist.

Mynd44:

Compulsory vasectomy will be on the agenda after 2 kids

All these policies can not work in African its a waste of time
You don’t dictate to people if you are not ready to pay child support

Ok

Good policy but would the northerner's adhere to it?

Of all other things, population is what is bothering this clueless government.
Create more Jobs and you will see that more mothers will naturally be occupied with work and reduce child bearing if that's what you want.

You don't want to improve the economy and you don't want us also to improve our KPEKUS experience?

Babu this one no go work abeg....

GEJ said something about it, but it was trashed by the abookiis. I pray they succeed this time. Why must you give birth to a child you can't properly take care of? We cannot continue like this, Something must be done about it .

It's gonna be a wasted effort

Muslims and Catholics will mostly oppose this. Laws like this are very cumbersome to implement in religious countries like this. There is a reason why insurance is yet to hit its potentials

Let's go to a loose federation, any region that wants to continue giving birth to 20 per father is their business cos there will be no resources from the center

They should limit the number of wives too to one man, one wife.

This is trash and anti south.
Its either they want to peg the population of the south while North grows or they want to force southerners who like large families to marry more wives which their religion doesn't permit.
Take for instance ,FG pegs it at 2 kids per woman
Its means,
A northern man that married 4 wives can have 8 kids officially while a southern man than has 1 wife will have just two kids. Haba, these northerners and their FG self.

Hmm.

Finally some sense from this administration. Nobody should be allowed to have more than 2 kids. That's more than enough to anybody.





Aside the financial strain, we currently ha ha overpopulation crisis a most people just don't know it yet

Not for us in the North. we are created to over produce. We invented the Bura Ntashi (man power) in world.

almajiri children will reduce with dis

I think it should have been " regulating the number of kids per household" . This is because, even if they say they're limiting birth to two kids per woman, the average traditional Nigerian man would go for upto five wives to be able to have many sons. Except the number of wives will be regulated too. Or polygamy and baby-mamaism will be criminalized, which I don't see the viability.

if this policy can be implemented wholeheartedly, it will be the best policy ever aim at reversing/reducing the poverty level in this country, and if we are really serious about reducing the trend of poverty it has to be one woman one child policy. anybody with more than one baby at a birth? na im luck

That is good 2 kids per parent is okay 100 kids doesnt guarantee success but aboki can vote against buhari because of this news abokis and pigs are 5&6

Nice strategy if it works out.

They should better limit the number of kids per a family, (a family includes polygamous families too)limiting the number of kids per mother will end up in the encouragement of polygamy,

I said same two years' ago. They should be more specific though. Besides, the procreation of lots of children is not necessarily a Northern Nigeria phenomenon.

Southerners include Yorubas which have Muslims amongst them and polygamy is allowed. The remaining are Christians, so where in the bible is polygamy prohibited?

Finally the FG has come to terms with reality. It should be one per mother or you pay heavily. Nigerians don't have sense. Whether they are rich or poor they feel their birth right is that they must marry and/or have children. Smh.

No
It should be per man
Not per woman

quid:

China has 1.4 billion people.
China is now the most powerful country in the world.
FG needs to Receive Sense ASAP

Apart from China one man one child policy their population would've been above 5billion by now.

If a man is allowed to marry four women based on his culture /religion, it still negates and defeat the planned policy. If each of the wives has three kids, total number for the man's households comes to 12.
