A UN report, released yesterday, showed that the world population, estimated at 7.2 billion, will dramatically increase to 8.1 billion in 2025, 9.6 billion in 2050 and 9.10 billion in 2100 powered by more births in Africa and developing nations.
Africa alone will contribute to half of this figure as its inhabitants are to rise from 1.1 billion to 2.4 billion in 2050 and 4.2 billion in 2100, the report said.
The poorest are projected to double in size from 898 million to 1.8 billion in 2050 and is to soar to 2.9 billion in 2100, warning of a possible decline of the number of inhabitants in rich countries in light if the growing immigration from poorer countries, put up at 2.4 million annually.
In fact, half of all population growth between 2013 and 2100 is expected to be concentrated in just eight countries: Nigeria, India, China, Tanzania, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Uganda, Ethiopia and the United States.
The report expected that Indian population will over number China, Currently the most populous country in the world, by 2028 to hit 1.45 billion that will rise to 1.5 billion in 2100 against 1.1 billion for China.
If so, a day will come that humans will be forced to eat each other like the case with wild animals in the jungle when we see the strong lion eats its old friend.
How can this world survives in light of the declining space of agricultural lands and growing water and food conflicts.
Africa alone, already suffering from poverty and low income that does not surpass one dollar and a half per capita and scarce land, will be responsible for half of the expected population growth.
According to the World Bank reports, some African inhabitants look in mountains for wheat hidden by ants as their winter stockpiles.
No justice or equality or mercy will prevail with the number of gorged people in the richest countries declining while the number of hungry Persons in African countries to rise up.
All these circumstances make us believe that the next world will put the inhabitants of poor countries in zoo cages so that they would not dare to eat rich ones, holders of dollar, sterling and euro.
