What Made Nigeria So Populated by ZIMDRILL(m): 1:32am On Dec 17, 2010
if i compare nigerian in terms of size and population to south africa it totally the opposite

south africa (1,221,037 km2 ) is bigger than nigeria but has only a population of 50 million

nigeria size 923,768 km2 and the population 150 million 3 times of south africa

what made the population boom or you just bonk like rabbits and have so many litters

Actually there is no direct correlation established between the size of a country, any country and it's population size. Take a look for yourself

Re: What Made Nigeria So Populated by Kobojunkie: 1:53am On Dec 17, 2010
What between the lines are you reading from?

The 2nd largest country in the world has a population of about 22 million, even with all that land mass.

The 6th largest country in the world has a population of just 20 million while the 8th Largest country in the world has a population of just 40 million, which is less than even South Africa that is the 25th largest in the world and you claim to be reading between what lines?

And check countries like Bangladesh, Pakistan and cross reference that with the population. I hope u stop ur tomfoolery after that.

Besides, what u should be looking at is the population density. U mentioned India but failed to mention that India's population density is almost 3x that of Nigeria.

U not only need to go back and finish geography, u need to throw in some math and statistics classes too. Focus more on quantitative aptitude.
Re: What Made Nigeria So Populated by ZIMDRILL(m): 1:59am On Dec 17, 2010

Re: What Made Nigeria So Populated by Nobody: 2:09am On Dec 17, 2010
Nigerian mentality that having even # (4, 6, 8] of children makes their family closer together.

Polygamy: Almajiris and his twenty wives giving birth to 5 children each.

Igbo men and their want for football family.

Yoruba men and their promiscuity, leading to forced polygamy.

Our teenagers that believe that tapping men with pregnancy will lead to love.

And then you have the accidental 1%.

Re: What Made Nigeria So Populated by OchiAgha2(m): 2:13am On Dec 17, 2010
The South-East is the most densely populated region in the world in general. Some populations in Nigeria have been exaggerated, while others have been under counted. Especially populations in the South-East are under counted due to political games.

[b]I do not think Nigeria's population as high as people think though. [/b]However, I still feel that the Hausa-Fulani are the most populous people in Nigeria in general. Followed by the Igbo, then Yoruba, Ibibio/Efik/Annang, and Ijaws.

oops . . . a mistype on my part but you are suggesting the the reason why Canada, with the second largest land mass, has less than 34 million is because, according to you, most of russia is uninhabitable? Do the canadians , and russians know this? shocked You mean before the canadians and russians decide to procreate, they check the size of inhabitable land before making the decision as to whether to go ahead or not? shocked

if the population is being exaggerated what benefit does it give nigeria in lying

if the nigeria government is lying doesnt it show bad management from country leaders

There is nothing like Hausa-Fulani but the is Hausa, Igbo,Yoruba, Fulani, Ibibio,etc. Neither the Hausas or the fulanis are the most populous within nigeria.
