Nigeria is too tiny for a population of over 200 million .. why are will not bothered ?

farmer-herdsman clash is an indicator that nigeria is becoming overpopulated/overcrowded .

In the 19s .. were there farmer herdsmen clash ?

Don’t forget that the Sahara desert is expanding .. and if it continues expanding this way for another 20 years then I’m afraid that the entire northern Nigeria will be a complete desert.

How about the limited resource ?

Nigeria population is more of a curse than a blessing.

1 million productive population is way better than a billion unproductive population.. likewise a billion productive population is a superpower.

What do you thinks ?

You made a good point... But, come to think of it, our population is not really the problem; but our mentality as a country is the main cause for concern.

Our population is not too much in my own opinion... The productiveness you mentioned is what is lacking (China is a case study).

They said we are 200m...

That is according the last census conducted ba?

We pass 300m for dis country.

Only when the world ends.

If u believe Nigeria population is anything close to 200 million u would believe anything

Nigeria is 40 to 80 million at most

You are wise .. Nigeria population should be between 120m -150 .

The policies that made China great can not be implemented in Nigeria �� Or anywhere in Africa ..

Tiny for 200 million? I disagree..
A province in china has almost halff of that. You can't always be blaming the population for your woes. It's sickening. You are not modernizing infastructure. No modern homes. No land lines. No integrated water projects. No serious loan schemes to jumpstart smes. You're not modernizing your schools. I mean Afghanistan has better road networks. Ghana supplies better power. Life might e safer in Mogadishu than in most parts of the north. That's a farlure of leadership and governance and not a product of an exploding population.

Your population is what it's based on what you make of it. China that stopped having many children before has now allowed parent to have upto 3. They are trying to increase local consumption by increasing consumer demands through greater population and you are here preaching genocide? Those who moan about the quantity of the population of poor countries as the causative agent for the overwhelming poverty without taking into consideration, the net effects of maladministration and corruption and misgovernance are just enmeshed in scape goatism..

Hello sir .. you seems to know a lot .. what are your solutions to the problems of Nigeria ..?

120m ? I doubt

Look at ivory coast , Ghana , Togo , Benin then look at Cameroon ...you an easily extrapolate Nigeria population to be around 80 million max

Don't know whether you're trying to set me up for a mauling....
But if you want to fix this country, and you are honest about it, you surely can do so... What you need to do quickly is to get rid of this evil old generation that has dominated politics in this country for almost half a century. Get rid of them. They have a bad mentality. They like tribal wars. The have civil war hangovers. They're petty and corrupt but thankfully, their deaths are near... Help push them off the cliff.., the Obasanjos, Babangidas, buharis and Danjumas, with their offsprings like Orji Kalus, Bola Tinubus and Dangotes...

Then get young bloods that are highly skilled and highly traveled. Fight corruption institutionally. For instance, I don't understand why the Federal Government can easily distribute allocations every months end to states, but can't monitor how such rpare used! I believe that instead of handing over allocations to governors to buy Prado jeeps and to celebrate their girlfriends birthdays inside private jets in the skies, The Federal Government should tie all states allocations coming from the center to awarded projects and use EFCC to monitor those projects. States can then use their internally generated funds for such other frivolities..

Create a governing structure that is close to that of Switzerland. Let's have vice presidents from the 6 geopolitical zones and let them man ministries. Let their be rotational presidency based on the high quality of the candidates education and character. Raise the qualification to aspire from the present school cert to post graduate.. Reduce ministries to not more than 12 and raise standards for being appointed. Merge ministerial departments to reduce cost of governing. Sack half of the civil servants in the federal civil service today and tie their pay offs to bank loans that can only be accessed if they train and open businesses.. Then double the size of the Police Force.

Retire corrupt judges and Police men without fear or favor! Get judges and Police officers to sign documents accepting capital purnishment if found guilty of corrupt practices. Ministers and governors too.. Enhance training across board and reduce nepotism! Develope the solid minerals sector rapidly. Renegotiate all the slavish neocolonial agreements between Nigeria and western oil companies that have enthrusted Nigerias oil and gas in western hands, fix roads and power and reinvent the internal revenue service..

Should I continue?
