Median age in Nigeria is 18 years. Probably the lowest in the world meaning our life expectancy is also one of the lowest. Japan is 50 years median age meaning they have aging population and high life expectancy.

The Muslim north are responsible for increase in population. A man will marry four wives. The wives give birth to at most six children each. He divorced two to three of them to marry another younger wife that will continue to produce children and the trend lingers on and on until the whole north is littered with almajiri. Muslims are the worst sets of backward individuals

Thank you. But what does it mean here?
It simply means Half of our Population(200,686,995) are below that Age(Median Age) while the Other Half are Above or older...What this means is that Children and Teenagers are on the rise.

Your conversion is wrong.Miles are always greater than kilometres. E.g if population of China is 151 per kmsq(58.3 square miles)

Median age does not imply life expectancy. It simply means half of the population are below the specified age.

Life expectancy 31 years? Brazilians' life expectancy is 76 years

Median age is not same as LE.

It just means it has a lot of young people. Perhaps high fertility rate, early parenthood, etc. Not necessarily only due to low life expectancy.

In the case of Japan, the high median is a combination of high life expectancy and low fertility. There are just relatively more older people in the population than most other countries.

9ja's very low median is cause for concern. It definitely points to much fewer elderly people and very high fertility rate. Meaning each adult has a relatively high burden of looking after many dependents. And by the way, many adults have low income, unemployed or under-employed.

Did you realize that Nigeria has the youngest median age on the list? Meaning Nigeria has a largely trainable and productive population... why you may ask? Youth! Nigeria has a strong youth demographic.

However Nigeria suffers a strong syndrome of unproductivity... high unemployment and braindrain.

Kai it's sad ...

How is Japan number 8 when number 9 and number 10 are more than them in population?


OP, is this an error or you actually believe Japan's population is more than that of Russia and the next in line?

We need to start taxing people with more than 3 children because they create a burden on the country. If you can’t afford to pay the tax for having more children, don’t have more!
