President Buhari Set To Launch The Revised National Population Policy Today by BluntNigerian(op): 5:10am On Feb 03, 2022
NATIONAL POPULATION COMMISSION

PRESS RELEASE

PRESIDENT BUHARI LAUNCHES REVISED NATIONAL POPULATION POLICY AND INAUGURATES NATIONAL COUNCIL ON POPULATION MANAGEMENT


His Excellency, President Muhammad Buhari, GCFR will officially launch the Revised National Policy on Population for Sustainable Development (NPP) and inaugurate the National Council on Population Management (NCPM) on Thursday, 3rd February, 2022 at the Council Chamber of the State House.

The Revised National Policy on Population for Sustainable Development (NPP), which was approved by the Federal Executive Council (FEC) on 9th June 2021, is a comprehensive document that addresses all population and development concerns with an overarching goal to improve the quality of life and standard of living of the people of Nigeria.

The main thrust of the policy is to reduce the population growth rate and accelerate demographic transition for the realization of the Demographic dividend. It is a strategic tool guiding the implementation of national development plans.

The implementation of the policy is premised on an institutional framework that is clearly defined in the policy with the NCPM as the apex organ. The Council is chaired by the President with the Vice President as the Deputy Chairman. Heads of relevant government Ministries, Agencies and Departments (MDAs) will serve as members of the Council.

The National Population Commission is the coordinating agency of the National Population Policy charged with the responsibility of ensuring collaboration and synergy across sectoral lines and monitoring the implementation of the population policy.

Principal Officers of the National Assembly, Ministers and Heads of MDAs, prominent Traditional Rulers, Ambassadors, Captains of Industries and Representatives of development agencies are expected to grace the event.

Now I have my own personal questions....

1. What exactly is inside this newly revised policy which they are hiding away from the public since 9th June 2021??

2. And why is it that the implementation of this newly revised policy would reduce the population growth rate?

3. Thirdly, I hope that the implementation of this policy would not affect the rights of the citizens, and that it would not break any existing laws??
..
The National Assembly should look into this new policy

The policy will likely be to give the North more chances to line up at the NASS....

The rest of the region will line up to beg the North for a political seat....


These will not hand over power to the south, without placing themselves in a position to hold the next leader by his balls....

Good one. Let's keep faith that things will get better, not by chance but by our willingness to do things differently and better - starting from ourselves.

You can't run a census during election period. Na big waste of money.

It would be better for the incoming government to run the census within 2 years of being in power

The aim has long been acheived- The reduction of Population growth.

How else could one explain the number of deaths since poo'hari and osunbande released marauding fulani Terrorists and fulani Military , Hunger and poverty on nigerians as an effective tool of Population reduction.

The Rest of the gimmick is as usual to enthrone fulani supremacy through tribalism, nepotism, quota system , siphon and loot the billions that will be earmarked for the abacadabra.

Re: President Buhari Set To Launch The Revised National Population Policy Today by Nobody: 6:03am On Feb 03, 2022
Ok, while you are at it. Can we have a proper national population census. Only in Nigeria do you have the people closer to the Sahara with bigger population than people further away from the Sahara.
Was it not the reason why Odumegwu was sacked when he wanted to conduct a proper census.

Switch to 2 child Max per person. We are way too much!
Re: President Buhari Set To Launch The Revised National Population Policy Today by slydog(m): 6:13am On Feb 03, 2022
Any policy that does not commence the one man, one wife, two kids max will not help this country in the long run.
We are growing too fast
We are marrying plenty wives
We are having numerous kids that we cannot cater for and social capital cannot
We have having many kids out of wedlock
These are all growing faster than the rate of economic growth.
The future is bleak.
