Nigeria's population explosion gives Obasanjo sleepless nights

Obasanjo says there must be political will and action to make population an asset.

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo says he's concerned about the exploding rate of Nigeria's population, especially in relation to the problems the country is facing.

Nigeria has not conducted a population census since 2006, but its current population is estimated at over 200 million.

While speaking at the public presentation of the 2020 Africa Progress Group report on Tuesday, August 17, 2021, Obasanjo said the nation's increasing population keeps him awake at night.
