It's no surprise that things are getting harder every year in Nigeria. Even before the subsidy removal, the cost of everyday items are on the rise.

You may have noticed that the size of bread that sold for N200 about 5 years ago now goes for N1000. This means that families today need to allocate 5 times amount of money to bread than they used to five years ago. What even makes it harder is that every year since 2015, Nigeria has added a minimum of 7 million children every year. This is more than the size of singapore. It is worth nothing that 63 million Nigerians are alive today, who had not ben born when Muhammadu Buhari was elected in 2015. And with Nigeria's current fertility rate of 5.31 children per mother, each additional birth is creating an increase in the number of people who need to be fed.

In light of the following, several people are exploring the possibility that should Nigeria place limits on child size per family similar to such a policy enacted by the government of China in the late 1970s. In the special report exploring this topic below, population scientists, policy analysts, statisticians and everyday people ask the question: Is it time for Nigeria to start limiting children born into each family in this economy?

Do you agree? Do you support it? What alternatives to such a policy exist? Should Nigeria limit children born into each family in this economy?

Who will enforce it especially in the far North where marrying 4 wives and giving birth to many children is their objective in life?

How about if we incentivize family planning?

Tinubu, the illegitimate president has no such powers!

you would be surprised. If china could do it in the 1970s, it's possible in NIgeria.

For example, federal and state civil service can mandate that only those with two children and less get hired. ANd if you have more than two children, you won't get promoted or forfeit your retirement package.

Once civil service accepts it, others will adopt it. All it requires is political will.

people are still having children like rabbits. May God help us

The North and South West should spearhead and test it first

Poverty and hunger is currently the order of day there

The North and South West should spearhead and test it first

Poverty and hunger is currently the order of day there

Until they start eating their kids before they even think of family planning

Nigerians are not quite ready for this debate yet. Not while an impoverished state like Gombe - with a population of 4 million - is recording 424,302 births in just one year.
