Ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo has stated that Nigeria’s population growth could become a problem if it is not well managed.<\/p>\n

Ths warning was issued by the former president while\u00a0speaking at an event in Ogun state on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Recall that United Nations released a report which estimated that Nigeria’s population had risen to 211 million earlier this month.<\/p>\n

Reacting, Obasanjo predicted that if the population explosion is not curbed, Nigeria will become the third-largest country in the world in 2050.<\/p>\n

He added that the nation must embrace \u201cpopulation<\/a> management\u201d as quickly as possible to forestall a disastrous ripple effect of a significant increase in the number of citizens.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have moved from 120 million to over 200 million, we have added the population of France to our population, and if we continue the way we are going, by the year 2050, we will be the third-largest country in the world,\u201d the former president said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we continue, by the year 3000, we will be the largest country in the world. Now, what are we going to do to handle the situation? How are we going to handle that population?<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we don\u2019t start getting it right now, we will not get it right by 2050.\u00a0 But population by itself may not be a liability if we do what we have to do. But if we don\u2019t do what we have to do \u2013 which we are not doing now \u2013 the population will become a liability.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe should educate ourselves about population management. Some people don\u2019t like family planning and all that, but whatever you do, you must manage your population for the benefit of all that is within your nation.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
