Why show any African country or city because the population of the continent is still smaller than Asian countries. Africa is not the problem, you guys are just scared of China and India.
There has always been billions of people on this planet for centuries. Why make a fuss about now? Only because computers can make census of the numbers. 😏😂😂 Has the world 🌍 gone mad?!
That's not the people fault it's the government fault for not providing infrastructure buildings and bad government
If you are an American and truly think that this is really the main lagos let me explain it to you because i am from Nigeria. This is like me going to L.A and search for the poorest slums and and poorest ghetto in L.A which is extremely difficult to find, and make a documentary about it. I lived in lagos for more than 20 years and i have NEVER SEEN A PLACE LIKE WHAT NBC JUST SHOWED YOU GUYS HERE. I really can't believe that they are still doing this and misinforming the people. 😂

Hearing what one lady said – that her man would find another `wife` if she refused to have more babies – makes me wonder if MAYBE once a man has fathered 4 children he should have a vasectomy. (?)
People complaining about the poor having children is literally peak elitism privilege talk . Who do you think you are to say who can or can't have kids . Y'all sound like Hitler .
How do we know it's 8 billion ? 🙄🤦♀️🤦♂️ Is someone counting ?
This station is a racist station is this the whole of Lagos u know? U go to a place u want to show to get ur stupid attention is this the only place u can show about Nigeria and Lagos even the people you're showing are not real Nigerians this are migrants from Benin republic now u make them the face of Lagos, there is more to Lagos and Nigeria then this ur one side story's, u go to a place with two hundred thousand inhabitants in a state of almost fifteen million real citizens to say this is the whole of Lagos is an insulate to nigerians and lagos as a whole.
Please if you can’t show the other nice part of Lagos never show anything
Don’t worry about us
Many nice places in Lagos but you want to show where rubbish is at
Why r u focusing on Africa in terms of population.
AFRICA ONLY RAW DOGS..
"We will continue to have as many children as possible because we know the world will feel sorry for us, feed us and send us money".
This is where USA is headed.

Other nations can build affordable housing apartment complexes all types of things to house these people. It's amazing that the land not providing enough resources.
People just choose to be close together. There’s plenty of land everywhere else.
I'm sorry "Population control policy????!!!!!' No no no no no no no no no no no NOOOOOOOO!! Go to China and India with that!!! We need more Africans and especially Nigerians in the world. GO TO CHINA and INDIA with that policy!!
Leh me tell you something, I LOVEEEEEE Nigeria! I love the people, I love the food, I love the culture, I want a husband from there…Listen! I just love'em!! If it wasn't for all this wickedness in the world I would definitely live there😍😍😍😍😍😍
This is totally apocalyptic.
Why don't they have family planning in Nigeria? I can't imagine having kids I cannot support. Why bring more children into an hellhole? Crazy! 👎
See the pollution in the air, that will shorten their lives and sicken the children !….but let's have more!
Okay NBC News first your description says "as the world population surpassed 8 million". Secondly Africa is the second most populated continent in the world. Would you say the largest city in North America or Asia(which has over 30% of the world's population). There are literally over 2.7 billion people in India and China alone. You sound like an ignorant American when you clump 54 countries on a continent into a monolith.
Everyone just mind your business. Its their country and their business. Y’all all the way over their in their business. If every woman wants to have 15 children how is that our business? What they eat doesnt make you shyt
God has unleashed a plague upon the earth, and we are it. CONTRACPETION Stress R Us
this channel and its comment sections are on a roll with the played out eugenicist propaganda that everyone is tired of hearing for the thousandth time. the only population our species cant sustain is the rich. they are psychotic and cancerous to the human species. they make us waste resources instead of use them for good. they breed with their own children etc. abolish the rich if you want the human species to thrive. keep letting them control everything if you want us all to go extinct..
Stop producin
Nigeria home of da scammers
I'm done sitting tight for the award advance since i acquire$23,000 every 12 days of my investment❤
What about the good places of that city where things looks organized, why you don’t show them on the news?
I find this report very problematic.
8 billion of which about 7,100,000,000 are parasites, so i'm all for depopulation.
Russia needs more cannon fodder maybe they'll volunteer
Why does people in poor African countries keep having babies knowing they rely on government assistance and foreign aid just to barely feed themselves?
So lets pop out more children and can't afford to feed them… OMG.
It's always the poorest that are the target when talks of overpopulation come up in the media. Especially when they are non white
Quality decreases, and quantity increases
Some places need birth control seriously
Why more. They are never gonna survive.
China has more.!
