China implemented similar policy and now they are very happy and developed

A wife and 4 children is ok

Have you ever been pregnant?

omonnakoda:

No Men are not meant to be pregnant

Moh247:

You are a man?

And you can open your mouth and prescribe 4 children for a woman?

Who made a child an exclusive right of a gender.. I prescribed 4 for a married couple.. not for women

Yes you prescribed for a single woman to have 4 children

You do not know what it is like to be pregnant that is why you say that.

Why stop at 4 why shouldn't she have 8?

Capping birth at four doesn't mean everyone has to reach four.. you can go for non of you like

Capping it at 4 is realistic with proper spacing

Way to go. While the likes of Ned are advocating polygamy see someone that has sense avoiding it. A Man that cannot tame his manhood is not a responsible man, many of the people in government right now shouldn't be there because they're wasting public funds on their large family.

The poor ones in the north should be made sterile after 3 or 4 children, you people down here are not more Muslims than Arabs, yet those ones use their brain. Since the ones here don't use their brain, they should sterilize them. It is because of this excessive birthing that boko haram, almajiri and other criminal organizations are increasing.
Our facilities are over stretched and can't go round.

But ur going against religious principle!

He is violating their human right.
Their religion permit many wives.

Ubdavis:
But ur going against religious principle!

And since they have been following the principles what have they achieved?! C'mon

That's good and nice

Eriokanmi:
You can't preach this in the north, where someone like Ado Doguwa of kano who had no other means of livelihood than politics is bragging over 30 children. Let them lose power and see how poverty would bombard the entire family cos the money stolen won't be there forever.

People should ask MKO's family. Despite being one of the successful families in Nigeria at a time, they tasted poverty. One of his sons was caught up in a fraud of over 30m naira some years back. What's 30b naira sef, when his dad was alive talk less of 30m? It took the efforts of those his dad had helped to pay that money. We need to begin to teach these people some sense. You keep giving birth like rats yet, your region remains number one in the world on poverty and out of school children list. This was what Sanusi Lamido preached against and they removed him unceremoniously.

I keep saying this, if care isn't taken, we'd lose our giants of Africa status to a mushroom country in near figure. Anyone who has been to Rwanda would relate. See Niger, I'm short of words. Go to Niger Republic, an arid country today, the rate of development there is so high. Does anybody know Niger had a functional refinery where Nigeria imports petrol from? Nigerians are busy investing in Niger as I speak. Though an Islamic country, its one of the most peaceful nations in West Africa. Most of their people doing gateman and maiguard job here in lagos have returned home. There must be a change of leadership next year. We can't continue like this.

Oga stop saying what you don't know okay? Abiola's family had issues after his death because the military made sure all his business collapsed, some of his money and assets were even frozen.
Not because of many children. Nevertheless, this is not saying that many children cannot lead to poverty, yes it can but that is not the case with Abiola's family.

Some arabs marry many wives.
Gulf people marry three - four wives.
They have money.

Moh247:
Do you have any evidence to back up this

Or it's another lies due to envy?!

Like Obi like supporters... Him to lie the lies with statistics

Go and verify

What else did Atiku do aside being a customs officer before going into politics?

SocialJustice:

I don't know and I don't care about Atiku

But if you haven't heard of INTELS Logistics better google it

....only punitive policies to impoverish an already struggling populace, all in the name of ......
Problems should be pragmatically tackled as deemed fit....
like in China, saw some improvements.....

But for our country, na money and economic policies wey go cripple poor man....wey go dey make man mart....na him we know...
Don't come here arguing that it is for our best....

This man is making sense. This is an example for Nigerian leaders to follow.

Useless leaders, don't have better focus on your Government.

God1000:
I like this president and his approach.


The best way to escape poverty is having one wife with at most two kids, especially for poor families.

Having numerous wives and children you can't cater for is a big societal problem

No no no, I know many Bachelors that are very Poor, in fact, even in this Nairaland sef.

No direct relationship between number of Wives and level of Poverty.

Note I was born in a family of 34 Children.

This is one man taking decisive and concrete steps towards addressing the biting poverty and population explosion in his country. Meanwhile a lawmaker in this country once paraded his harem of 4 wives and 30 children at the national assembly and he was feeling very fly with himself for parading such a disaster in our modern world yet his people voted him in to come and solve their problems forgetting that solving his own personal problem with their constituency funds is not even enough for his harem not to talk of those that voted him in.
Tell them to pass this kind of law in Nigeria and they tell you its against their religion as if they are more Muslim than the Arabs that brought the religion to them. So many Muslim countries are doing so well for themselves that at times I wonder the type of Islam that is practiced down here.

Moh247:
Tinubu has just one wife

And she has a career as a Senator

What's Obi's wife's career

No Remix is his second wife
Sorry remi third wife rather

Our traditional rulers should also be barred from marrying too many wives, I don't like it.

The number of kids/wives doesn't determine poverty.

Moh247:
Obi stole his own money and took it abroad for his wife

Tinubu used his own money in Bullion Vans to give poor people that came to beg at his house




.

His own money or lagos state money?? To buy votes which is a criminal offence.

The issue I have is why do these people need to told something that is clearly common sense?

Let's hope our Yoruba Muslim brothers go learn from real Muslims

I won't say much further. But I can tell you I know the family more than you think. They had issues after mko's death that's true. Abiola's billions are in hanks which still remain frozen till today. You cannot claim the money you don't have access to. If in doubt about the fraud case of one of his sons, maybe you can google

SLAP44:
These men all married more than one wife each

They are the problems of Nigeria.

Who is buhari's other wife?

SLAP44:

Those ones can take care of the numerous children

The concern is on those who cannot take care of the children but keep on multiplying the world

You funny bro you sound as if Peter Obi is in the forum...

JoeNL22:
Lol.....
Obi hope you are taking note?

Will you implement this strategy?

Your average Northerner doesn't want to hear this kind of Marching order. Emir Sanusi tried, and he was too progressive for them.
Someone on 25,000 naira salary with 11 children. Some don't even have a job but have children in double digits. The situation is really pathetic up North.
Black man's Islam is way different from the way Arabs practice their Islam.
