*.The current population of Nigeria is 190,594,019 as of Sunday, April 2, 2017, based on the latest United Nations estimates.
*.Nigeria population is equivalent to 2.55% of the total world population.
*.Nigeria ranks number 7 in the list of countries (and dependencies) by population.
*.The population density in Nigeria is 211 per Km2 (545 people per mi2).
*.The total land area is 910,802 Km2 (351,662 sq. miles)
*.49.9% of the population is urban (95,764,092 people in 2017)
*.The median age in Nigeria is 18 years.
Is this not the time for us to start seriously talking about birth control? We hide behind the cloaks of religion, culture to avoid taking responsibility for unplanned births.
Our median age is 18!!! EIGHTEEN YEARS. Naturally, this affects the productivity of the nation. When the majority of the population of a country are school children and therefore cannot contribute to the production of the country, there is a MAJOR problem.
Comparison of countries by median age:-
Nigeria - 18.3
Brazil - 31.6

Japan - 46.9
