THE
EFFECT OF RAPID POPULATION GROWTH ON THE ECONOMY OF EDO STATE: A CASE STUDY OF
ESAN CENTRAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA
ABSTRACT
The subject matter of this
research is the effect of rapid population growth on the Nigeria economy a case
study of Esan Central Local Government Area. The main objective of the research
work is to enable us know the effects of rapid population on the economy. The
research methodology, both primary and secondary data were used. The data were
presented and analyzed. Information was discovered in the course of study that
Nigeria population today is very youthful; this is due to high fertility rate
in Nigeria. It is recommended that government should enact into law the minimum
age at which an individual can get married.

INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Many
people believe that it is a law of nature that all population at all time and
place tend to go on expanding until they react the limits of subsistence. In
(1998) this theory was propounded by Rev. Thomas Robert Malthus in his
principle growth according to Matheu in regard to the causes of population
growth he argued that human being like plant and animals are forced to increase
their population by the urge to reproduce. If there are no constraint on this
propensity to reproduce human being will continue to increase their
appreciation.
Population problems are both married and far reaching in their effect the
efforts of economic growth will be mollified if population has an increase at
an even more rapid rate more specifically. This chapter is an attempt to show
that rapid growth in population has an adverse effect on Nigeria economy a case
study of Esan Central Local Government.
