I like this.....that's what Dan Brown was insinuating in his book Inferno


If genetist can bio engineer a virus and introduce it into public and natural water systems. this virus or antigen would be tailored to Target the gonads and render the population ( or specific areas of the population that contribute the least to HDI or GDP ) impotent or reduce the ease with which people 'score'

this agent can also have an antidote, that's reversible as at when needed..

I'd just found myself in Lagos and it's so depressing to see large swathes of people, most of em largely producing anything tangible....


Contraceptives should be encouraged massively.

Gone are the days when we think overpopulation is an asset.....it's actually an impediment.

The country is clearly overpopulated . overpopulation stalls growth. so what are are some methods to reduce Nigeria's population? share your ideas below

brains storm ideas

- implement 1 or 2 child policy
-execute thousands of prisoners on death row .
- legalize Abortion (100's of thousands illegitimate babies are born each year. in fact, over 4 million Nigerians are illegitimate .
- Legalize death sentence for crimes such as Kidnapping , armed robbery, Cultism . This means once an individual is caught ,they would immediately be execute. over 1 million Nigerians are Kidnappers and armed robbers.

You can murder your family, it'll reduce Nigerian population and also influence your friends to do so too.

Nawah for you! What Buhari is doing now will do the job neatly if he continue at this pace for the next five years. That's why he need second tenure.
With the heavy hunger, massacre and hardship. Only the strong will make it through the next few years.

better still don't have any kids. face the problem headon!

why do you want to consciously limit population growth? Nigeria's problem is not the high population but the large percentage of unskilled idle population. we need to develop our human resources and the idle population would engage in productive activities instead of just seeking entertainment and pleasure chasing. look at japan and south Korea, the youth are busy innovating instead and growing their society, please compare with an average Nigerian youth

by the way abortion is murder. an unborn child is not a mess of bloody tissue but a complete human being albeit still dependent on the mother

people need to know the consequences of over breeding . and it's only the government in lieu with religious bodies that can enforce that.

Breeding for breeding sake is not a Divine mandate.

Genetical engineering and biotechnology could do the trick; food items can be modified in such a way that consumption of those foods would reduce human fertility.

Vaccines and some drugs could also be modified to impact the specific DNA sequences responsible for human fertility.

Homosexuality can be legalized.

Propaganda and mass reorientation; citizens can be sensitized right from nursery to avoid giving birth to more than one or two child(ren), it could be a part of the educational syllabus. Religious institutions can also be encouraged to teach doctrines that supports few children.
all your methodologies are evil, repent bro.
And it is already being implemented secretly, lemme keep quite self
Reducing population is against God's will so it will never work.

Even with all the evil policies the world population has hit 7billion

Evil will never win

Nothing short of a widespread natural disaster or fatal infectious disease without cure can reduce population at the level you envisage.

Measures like mass murder that Hitler used at industrial scale was able to kill only 6 million Jews over a 10 year period. We won't really miss average of 600,000 people a year.

1 child policy of China has not reduced the population, it only succeeded in reducing rate of population growth

Death sentence will not help much as legal system is expensive to pronounce such. Imagine the cost of one legal case multiplied by 1 million a year and see if we can afford the cost, many getting to supreme court level.

Abortion is already widespread, coupled with poor maternal and infant healthcare, it has not dented the population growth rate in Nigeria

Well, that was just an hypothetical situation.
In a scenario where the population becomes overbloated, something would have to be done. The planet must be saved,and overpopulation may eventually contribute to the destruction of the earth; hence, measures would have to be taken to control the geometric growth of the human population. Its as simple as that.
