The figure is very low. There should be an aggressive drive to more people and it should be for free


You think the figure is low because of the purported 200 million population figure that lacks empirical or verifiable facts?

Please check the map and tell me which country did Kano is bordering?
Illegal immigrants from Niger and Tchad always claim to be mostly from Kano and some times, Sokoto.

You see that 12m+ in Lagos Igbos for about 45% but you see that Kano 10m+ Chad, Niger, mali fulanis for over 92%.
Igbo and grandiose delusion

The only possible point is that 45% belongs to Nom yorubas (Not only IGBO).

Yes. There's no way Lagos is up to 12 million except if they are counting the fishes in the lagoon.
Only a blind person will dispute that of Lagos. It's a known fact that Kano is less urbanized than surulere as a whole. But I don't expect a desert dweller to understand that.

Even as far as Ethiopia, Sudan, Egypt, Tanzania, Somalia

Immigration and Customs in the Northern regions are frightening weak and almost non existence
The borders in those places are so porous and a thoroughfare. Any goes in and out there!

All manner illegals especially terrorists with sophisticated weapons constantly swoop into the country enmasse frequently from the northern axis

Where did I say you're Igbo? I just helped your narrative ni na. Shey if you gather 10people in Lagos, almost 5 of them are Igbos? You forget say there are 5 other big Yoruba states around Lagos. Add Kwara and kogi people . Then we now have other non-igbo states, but you feel a single tribe in the whole federation that doesn't border even the southwest can for a whooping 45% of the population of Lagos? You try.

I don't need to ask. Almost half of Lagos can not be Igbo, unless you empty the whole SE into the State.

Nigeria’s population is definitely less than 200million.

Those without NIN cannot be up to N80million.

Confirmed.

I can now believe in the population of Kano state, possibly the biggest in Nigeria.


I expected Oyo to hit 10 million or more but illiteracy is still a factor there.

Based on satistics Kano is second to Lagos state.

Wrong again. The 12m+ isn't the population of Lagos but NIN registration.

Again, expectedly the South-East number is low just as the region recorded in other biometric-based data like JAMB enrollment, internet data usage, INEC registration (even satellite images).
This is a wake up reality to South East Governors and the Federal Government. The South East is a low-populated region.

Is this not telling us that the huge VAT, Federal allocation etc to South East is more than enough to improve the lots of the sparsely populated region but some people have been inflating the numbers for corruption and political reasons? With the huge allocation and VAT for a low populated and small land mass region, the South East in reality should be like Doha today!

South Easterners have been long distracted by not holding their political leaders able. They are being short changed by their leaders.

By population strength, there is only one majority tribe in Southern Nigeria and it's the Yoruba.

If na like so, Ibos for dey determine the Governors of Lagos state and Sanwoolu no for flog that Chinedu (bo candidate)) mercilessly in the last election.
The whole Ibo population no 5 million Your election results after every General Election be like minimum wage figures, no matter the amo6of rigging and manipulation.

Because without NIN, there's hardly anything you can do nowadays

The nin registration nearly reflects Nigeria population distribution

Does it mean the census we've been having all along has been accurate in population distribution? If so then we have to appreciate those who did the olden days counting without modern technology
