Even a girl of 14years are into hook up, just go round and see secondary school girls on the streets, married women are into scope relationship just to get extra money. All these is tide to unessary population. Everyone want children and large family that they can't properly feed. What is the point really, God will provide? Which God, that's a twist! |

Most people in the south, especially southeast, don't birth much children these days and several factors checkmate population down south. Such policy should be directed at the north. |

ideamonster: A very good idea...but somehow unnecessary, in fact u just need to look around ur surrounding to figure out dat educated millennials & Gen z are refusing to marry due to economic situations or just have very few kids especially those in d cities. D major problem is those in villages & traditional northerners who believe in d Almajiri system( This crappy system most be abolished as parents just breed anyhow & send the burden to d society without a care in d world).. d issue of population decline would be extremely worse in Africa onces it starts cause unlike d developed countries, ours would be born out of survival instinct & not enjoyment or planning like d western world 1 Like 1 Share |

Muslim birth/Sahelian birth should be reduced. To reduce terrorism. Non - muslims/Non-Sahelians should reproduce. |

I think it's high time that the government should enforce two children per woman before it's too late. I believe it's possible to not gravitate towards population monster. But the problem it now we don't even know how many people are in Nigeria. Talkless statistics of the population. Nigeria is already chaotic now genuine population data to guide any realistic planing to bring the much needed positive changes. It thinks Nigeria should set up a registry office at every polling unit to record birth and death in each ward. |

zeyt:Enforcement with serous penalties. Taxation is an idea that should help better. If the Gateman is taxed with every extra child after the first, with mandatory paternity tests for every child in the system, and those born outside of the system, the anxiety of having his pay docked with every careless screwing will cause him to rethink his status with his wife and women in general. ![]() |

Kobojunkie:I am telling what I know about. I know that most couples in my environment don't birth more than 3kids these days. I also know that cases of childlessness due to infertility is high in the southeast and that is why baby factory is a booming business there. If you consider the fact that Igbos generally don't marry early and also that old age is a factor that contributes significantly to infertility, then you don't need anybody to tell you that population is being checked more in the southeast. I know there are outliers but that can't be compared to what you have in other Nigerian regions. 4 Likes |

Kobojunkie:All the ones I know are comfortably taking care of their kids. But I've noticed that you view everything from the lens of the western world. Left for you, Nigeria and Nigerians should cease to exist because they never measure up to your western standards. With such mindset, it's a tough call trying to convince you that some people in Nigeria are actually conscious of and checking their rates of reproduction. 5 Likes |

SocialJustice:Weak analogy. Very weak. 1. Perhaps there's only N20 because two people are earning. In a group of 20 people, there will be twenty people earning. 2. Your analogy doesn't consider improvement in technology. If twenty people share the same resources as ten people but have better tools and skills to minimise wastage and maximize efficiency, they could be better off. This is one of the responses giving to Reverend Thomas Matheus' theory. You give an oversimplified theory. In practice, your theory won't last a second in the arena. 1 Like |

Incognito403: SocialJustice:thank you @socialjustics for this laymanic illustration. I studied economics as a course and I know to a large extent how population explosion is detrimental to developing countries. @incognito. The case study here is Nigeria . The population explosion is a curse, and the more reason for the pressure on the available* (inavailable in the real sense) resources . 9 Likes |

Originalsly:Op's suggestion wasn't to limit children born into poor families but to all families. I wouldn't subscribe to that. Rather I would that the freedom be adequately taxed to compensate the system for the burden added by adding each child. Paternity tests should also be made mandatory to avoid having children slip the system. Also, a vasectomy rebate program that enables those who wish to help themselves can also be added to family planning benefits. ![]() 1 Like |

I didn't read. Government don't need to forcefully limit the number of Children one should has. Common sense they say is not common. If Couple don't know that they need to bear children in accordance with what their financial, emotional and psychological capability can make do with; "na them Sabi". In this Tinubu' era!!! |
