It is my opinion that the population of that "country" is nearer to 17 million (not 170 million).
The populations of other "countries" in SSA are wildly overstated/overestimated.
There are NOT a billion people in SSA. There are actually under a hundred million in Black Africa.
I honestly believe that the population of Black Africa (SSA) is *at least* ten times less than the "statistics" (World Bank) state.

Is that you???
I thought you were female all this time!
I guess the pic of your little girl made me think that?
Wait ? Is that even your child?

Two hundred million actually. But don't take my word for it...
Nigeria Population 2019.
A reason why Nigeria has it's own Hollywood scene, lots of people in Nigeria.
Again, BS numbers.
See my post above - the 80 largest Nigerian cities add up to only 40 million. Wikipedia also indicates that outside of large cities, the population density is low.
In a relatively small country, you can't both have high population and low density of population in rural areas, if the rural areas account supposedly for 160 million people NOT in cities.
Very basic math. Contradictory.
Recall those are UN numbers
Furthermore, your reference claims an increase in population of 3 million since Jan 1 of this year.
In a third world country.
Hot 24/7
Water supply for these new millions of people would come from..... ?
South Africa which is much more advanced can barely keep its' water system going.
100% bull# numbers.

You are an absolute fool if you honestly believe this utter trash you've written.
Where did you get this ridiculous notion from? I live in Africa. We are MASSIVELY overpopulated!

We also probably have one of the largest sections of Nigerians within our country which does tend to give credence to the fact that they populate like rabbits there...

You need to live up to your username (bet that's been said before!).
I was merely using absurd examples to highlight the absurdity of what the above poster said.

Why do you assume the majority of the population lives in cities. How ignorant are you that you don;t know that most of Africa live in rural areas. Of our 52 million people in South Africa the cities only make up for about 30 million.
We also probably have one of the largest sections of Nigerians within our country which does tend to give credence to the fact that they populate like rabbits there...
You've also made the erroneous assumption that water is available to everyone in Africa when that is entirely untrue. How does the irrigation network relate to population? Half of this continent live without running water.

everyone needs to start wearing condoms, or pull out. we have WAAAAAAAYYYY to many men on this planet. there is garbage everywhere, i see plastic bags and trash everywhere i go. less people, less pollution.
when i see people 45 years old with grandkids?
i decided in 4th or 6th grade not to have kids. objective decision. im so glad i do not have kids.
1, i have lots of money even tho i do not make a lot of money
2, i can do whatever i want whenever i want. today, i think im jumping in my car heading to the beach
3, i can stay out as late as i want, anytime i want
but one thing i see, is people complain about not having money, yet they have 2 kids. makes no sense. if you have kids, its cool, but do not complain to people about money, when it was your choice to spread your income out over 2-7 people lol.
my income is for me, and im realizing how much better that is.
now, if i hit the lotto, like 10 million, i would adopt a few kids after i got married. because i think letting kids grow up as millionaires would be awesomely abstract, like the key and peele will smith's kid sketch.

China's population growth has stagnated drastically. Why do you think this is?
I'd be interested in your response.

So you are saying I am surviving without breathing?
I don't get anything you say as there is no reasoning to anything you post.
Can you clarify anything and provide some reason as to why you say the things you do?
I was merely using absurd examples to highlight the absurdity of what the above poster said.
So its absurd to say they live in Africa?
OK
Let me show myself out
as I said, deranged, now its just scary deranged

Totally agree mate. They do seem highly skilled plus much of their economies are really beginning to take off, just hope the Chinese don't ruin it for them like Europe did centuries ago and steal the profit from their sweat
