Nigeria in 2040

In 2040, Nigeria is projected to have a population of 312,710,416 people. That would be 19.2% more than in 2030 (262,380,970). The median age is projected at 22.7 years, with 55.9 children under 15 and 6.0 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). This is an expansive pyramid — each cohort of children is larger than the one above it, the signature of high birth rates and rapid growth.
