"According to the most recent UN projections, Nigeria will nearly double its population again by 2050 to an estimated 377 million. In the process, the country will leap-frog Pakistan and Indonesia and end up in a virtual tie with the US as the third most populous country in the world."

Projections are as valuable as the paper they're printed on, but this is crazy to me. 9% the size of USA but the same population . . . and the political and economic situation in all of Africa is such a mixed bag.
