      The same thing happened in China and is still happening in India. Maybe Nigeria also needs a one child policy. It creates a generation who are raised by two incomes in stead of several children by one because the other has to stay home

      @@Churros1616 I wouldn’t do the one child policy, that’s gonna lead to boko haram going crazy mad and it’s gonna give their “the west is corrupting us” rhetoric more power, plus Nigerians have a preference for sons like the Chinese did, so it could create a male female disparity. It’s not an easy solution, family planning, secular education, and infrastructure so that it can reach all Nigerians and break the monopoly on radical religious education that a lot of local rural villages have.

    Additional context for the apparent overpopulation problem in Nigeria:
    The CENSUS numbers are actually very questionable, (ie:inflated).
    Local/State governments are actually incentivized to fudge the census numbers and inflate them, so as to get a larger portion of resources from the federal allocation.
    In other words, the more people in your locale, the more resources you can claim from the federal government. So there is naturally and incentive to lie.

It’s the same problem facing places like India and the Philippines. On the one hand it’s bad for the country who spent the money and resources educating these people only to have them move elsewhere as soon as they’re educated and at their prime but on the other hand it’s highly beneficial to the destination countries receiving these migrants.

That said moving these countries forward requires earning hard currency for investment in infrastructure and technology. What doesn’t require much hard currency is investments in education and health. This would go a long way towards addressing the overpopulation problem.

That said the basic indicators such as literacy, infant mortality, and TFR are not good. There is really no way to sugarcoat those numbers.

As a person born and raise in Nigeria,the only problem facing the country is bad leadership,incompetent leader,corruption,tribalism and nepotism. Nigeria have one of the most educated people in Africa,but because of the country's hardship,most of there population end up relocating to other countries for better life.That's why the Southern Nigeria or SouthEast Nigeria wants to separate from Nigeria..

      If anyone is curious the population of each continent by 2100
      North America estimate between 500 million to 600 million (global warming will make Canada warmer and more fertile giving much more agricultural land to the county)
      The population is expected to be 45% european about 25% Hispanic and about 30% Asian and black but looking at current IR statistics it’s probably not unlikely that about a 1/3 of the Asian/black population will be married to a person of european decent, but there numbers will be 14% of the population for blacks and 16% of the population for Asians (but as stated these racial groups will probably have some admixture of european blood due to marriage)
      South America 700 million. It will have the worlds highest median age the population will largely be similar to its current racial makeup of mostly mestizo/european background
      Europe (including Russia) 630 million about 85% will be european white and 15% being of Arab/Indian background, however it is important to note that due to global warming Serbia may become further inhabited and with several trillion dollars of natural resources a population spike in Russia is a conceivable possibility, also right wing nationalism is growing which could add or decrease to west Europe’s population trend.
      Asia 4.7 billion about a billion of whom will be Arab. China will shrink to about 1 billion and India will become the most populated country in Asia, japan is expected to shrink (just to add I know Arabs are technically Asian but I’m just trying to be distinct)
      Africa 4.4 billion (about another billion will be Arab North Africans) Africa will be (in my opinion) the worst off continent, country’s like Egypt which already deal water sacristy will likely double or even triple its current size from 100 million to 400 million.... for comparison the United States is about 10 TIMES the size of Egypt. Overall it would appear the America’s will have a population of about 1.3 billion (which would be less populated than India) and with 2 continents of space for its population will be populated but still will have plenty of space left over while some African countries sill suffer greatly from land and water sacristy... potentially a mad-max situation but with African landscapes instead of Australia
      So overall population structure
      european population= 920 million
      Hispanic= 885 million
      I would probably consider Hispanics to be closes to Europeans due to colonialism and 23&me study’s so my personal number
      Whites/Hispanics= 1.8 billion
      Arab= 2 billion
      African sub sharan black= 3.3 billion
      Asian= 3.7 billion

    This is the problem of over population. If a country can't provide the sufficient services and resources needed for their rapidly growing population, it's not just going to cause a strain on local resources such as food and water, infrastructures like housing, and proper services like health, education, and security, but also employment. Like what was mentioned in the video, if people can't find work and turn into desperation, they can be easy targets for recruitment by extremists can cause more internal problems, which can lead to external problems too, like regional disputes and wars, and mass migration to other countries. This then results to political instability and the draining of resources of those countries affected by the mass migration/immigration as well. It's just not a good outcome overall and their governments need to do something about this...but we all know change is probably going to be close to impossible, or will be slow like a glacial pace.

    India here, our latest report shows that India has reached TFR of 2.0 and of 28 Indian states only 2 have TFR slightly above 2.1 and only one has TFR=3. Rest of India has reached TFR of 1.5-1.7. In some urban areas like New Delhi TFR is 1.3. However because of the past momentum our population will still continue to grow (but very slowly) from current 1.25 Billion and peak at 1.5 Billion in 2060 but then start declining, by 2100 our population will drop back to 1.1 Billion and by some other estimates even lower! As an Indian I am very happy about this, because less population means better life, lesser pressure on Environment, better health and education. In general Quality and not Quantity!

Education in the form of marketing pushing the idea of 4 children would probably work better. Use the idea of fewer educated children among an illiterate majority as a status symbol.

      It's not mentioned because Nigeria has been independent since 1960, and has enough resources to look after itself. The colonialist argument gets old, and after so much time (and many countries doing better with much less), the issues seems to have been created within Nigeria itself.

    To reduce fertility, by my understanding, work needs to be done to convince men, not women, to have fewer children. Men control the family planning and contraception decisions. The video hinted at this, by way of mentioning that more children = more status for men, but I wish it had explicitly stated that work needs to be directed at men. Instead the focus continues to be girls, girls, women. By all means, improve education, for boys and girls, so girls can gain some agency of their own. But for now contraception and family planning is the realm of men, and the population growth needs to abate now.

      @@AFR0MAMBA just because a news network or report says something does not make it true. The people of a country are it’s greatest strength. Good governance of cities, towns, natural resources etc is what can be improved in Nigeria. A big issue with Nigeria is corruption… it is considered on of the most corrupt countries in the world, if that is solved many of Nigerias “problems” will be much easier to fix and will be done much faster.

      @@JohnnyKimble1 millions of people are not going to Europe from Africa. And you act like Europe is the best place on the planet to be, you are quite mistaken. China has 1.4 billion people, India has 1.3 billion people, Africa has 1.2 billion people, and Europe has 747 million people. Aside from going to university for a few years or tourism most people do not want to go to Europe.
      In regards to immigration & migration there are systemic issues in many places in Africa in part due to Europe over the centuries such as the Berlin Conference of 1884. For long term migration issues the world bank, world health organization, and United Nations activity take many measures to address and reduce migration which has positive effects.
      And you should not be so biased against Africans, as Europe isn’t the top world power albeit influential. China, USA, India , and Africa have more of the world’s population, GDP, and are just as desirable to live. It should also be noted that everyone contributes to society including people of African decent.
