With over 234 million people and a growth rate of 2.37%, Nigeria’s population is projected to hit 401 million by 2050.
The country's high fertility rate of 5.3 children per woman, coupled with 42% of the population living in poverty, puts immense strain on limited resources.
However, there’s hope! By increasing access to education, contraception and women’s workforce opportunities, we can empower families, reduce fertility rates, and invest more in education, healthcare, and infrastructure. This will unlock Nigeria’s human capital and drive sustainable growth.
Let’s work together for a thriving Nigeria!
