NIGERIA, May 25, 2011 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Just two weeks ago the UN predicted the birth of the world’s 7 billionth baby this October. Calls for measures to control the world’s population growth immediately surged, with some pointing particularly to Nigeria’s rapidly growing population.

Some Nigerians, meanwhile, are celebrating their growing population as the country’s greatest asset.

“We Nigerians are rejoicing,” said Chinwuba Iyizoba, an electrical engineer in Enugu, Nigeria, in a recent article for MercatorNet. “Africans love children.”

Despite warnings that Nigeria’s population could reach 725 million people by 2100, coupled with calls by Western media for population control in the country, the nation’s citizens will not buy the propaganda, said Iyizoba.

Not my opinion. Posting this so you all can see what's out there.

725 million. There is no way a country the size of Nigeria can support that many, even as starving wretches. Never mind the projections of "current trends". Something else will happen before it gets there.

Most people on the left and right don't want to talk about overpopulation. It even affects this country -- why do bosses treat workers so badly, and why don't we have a right to health care like they have in first-world countries? Because we're overpopulated, and if you die at your job, there are thousands who can take your place.
