Little wonder why 80% of Nigerians want to 'japa' to these countries then!?

The only thing that will happen is that those countries will degrade. As is already happening.

How does a topic about procreation based on economic strength correlate with arguments for African inventions, gender disparity, and disdain for low breeding rates? The OP asked a simple question and didn't argue against high birth rate as long as the economic capacity is present.
He did. Read his post again.

It's quite funny though, the way some people brag with suffering. I've heard people brag about how they refuse to take annual leave. They believe rest is for the weak.

Some brag about how far they trek daily etc. We have been so used to suffering right from birth that 24 hour power is something to be excited about.

Until you actually visit a developed country you'll never know how stressful and pathetic living in Africa is.

As for the birthing of kids anyhow, that one is unexplainable.

You can live a comfortable, dignified life in Africa but most people (even the ones you feel should know better) get swept up by the nonsensical "culture". They feel compelled to say and do things that make their lives needlessly difficult.

The culture of superstition and irrational behavior is too strong for most to resist.

This was how he started, by praising low birth rate in the developed world despite all the necessary social amenities and wealth:
In developed countries, Good system of government, social
amenities, low unemployment rate, good minimum wage/
earnings yet most people have 1, 2, 3 children while few have
5+... Or some want no children.

In essence, what he is saying is that, even if you have money and you live in a rich society, it's still wise to have few children.

Look, bro, these things are simple. A man shouldn't say because he has money to take care of 10 children then he should just go ahead and have 10 children. At the end of the day if every rich person thinks like that, demography is affected and pressure mounts on the poor amenities we have in such a poor society as Africa. Will the rich man's children not ride on the few km of roads we have, will they not be part of the 200m people that have to share 7000mw? etc, etc...Baba, it takes more than just money to take care of children. It's like tearing yourself into pieces. The more kids you have, the more pieces you get torn into. That's why white people have few kids.

You're absolutely right @bolded. Africans are workaholic. All they do here in Africa is work work work!

My elder brother who's in Germany has a job he goes from 9am - 3pm. His salary is very okay. But Instead for him to rest after that 3pm... He decided to take a second job that he goes from 3:30pm - 8pm.

His white friend advice him not to take a second job, that taking a second job means maybe he's in serious debt with alot of bills to pay. He also told my brother to use his free time to go watch sports or go to the beach.

My brother just laughed and he told his white friend that here in African we work as if there's no tomorrow. We work as if rapture is taking place today and he's already used to it.

It's the dependency ratio. Your brother's white friend may not have anyone he's sending money to. Your brother on the other hand has to send money home to you people in Nigeria, and still take care of his personal needs.

I totally agree with you but then it's not as if we're putting pressure on him to send us money, he always send us money at his own will. So he should also take a break for himself too.

My parent, my other siblings and I, has a job and other businesses we attend to everyday to earn a living. So we don't depend on him for money. He send us money at his own will.

It's just where he's coming from (Nigeria/Africa) reason he has that restless spirit in him.

I won't read it from that angle. He was only commenting on the better organised system and do not sense any advocate for compulsory low birth rate irrespective of economic capacity!

Low birthrate is not compulsory but it makes sense, even if you live in a rich society and have money. Did he not say that even in organized and rich society people still have few children?

Black man with black heart, whether they like it or not, we are too selfish and heartless to ourselves. Look at d situation in d country, how many ministers resigned nor were sacked? But if what's happening had happened in Western world, Minister of Economy and Finance Minister would hv resigned.

This is nothing but the truth. Human beings are naturally selfish, hypocritical and wicked, but ours is just top of the chain. Since most of us has chosen to delude ourselves we can continue. The ones that vex me the most are those idiots who carry their afrocentrist mindset to Europe, Asia or America. You should have stayed in your country to sell your worthless penny-a-million ideals.

Now I know why d poor keep getting poorer, why social vices keep increasing on daily bases, why many atrocities are on d high side.
Why is it that u can't find children of d well-to-do parents joining boko Haram, unknown gun men or agboro across d federation? If u can gv me answer to that, then we can continue. U guys will just deviate from d topic and start analysing offpoint

If you have studied well, you would have realized that many children of well-to-do parents are into drugs, which are beyond the purchasing power of the poor.
To maintain their addiction, they often resort to robbery, using the licensed firearms of their parents.
Go to campuses and do a study of the number of highly placed people who are into cultism.
Poverty is not the ONLY reason why there's crime in the society.
Mention one developed country where there is no crime.

Pride how when you can't feed them or educate them and half or more are destitute and are societal nuisance stealing and robbing neighbours.

This mentality is why people say low IQ

datopaper:
On having more children. It is african thing. Nothing you can do about it. It will take another century for us to make adjustment. It is our pride.

A man that have 5 wives and 23 children is a pride!. If you don't know, ask your daddy!
