Nigeria has the largest population in Africa, and it is growing at approximately 3.2% each year as reported by Voice of Africa. In April this year, the U.S. Census Bureau says that at that rate, there will be an estimated 402 million people in Nigeria by 2050.

The ever increasing population in Nigeria will eventually become a curse if not well managed.

The importance and the role of family planning in addressing this danger of overpopulation in Nigeria should and must be looked into.

Family planning is a key factor in achieving Sustainable Development Goal, and getting it right can help Nigeria in meeting related targets such as education, particularly for women and girls.


Yobe, Sokoto and Katsina states top the list of women (15-49 year) not using contraception with 98.1%, 97.7% and 96.6% respectively. Followed by Kebbi – 96.5%, Bayelsa – 96.3%, Jigawa – 96.0%, Borno – 93.8%, Kano – 93.7% etc.*
