He said: “There is
much more strength in procreation. We ignorantly related poverty to over
population. If it were to be, China, by now should be the most affected nation
by poverty. But no, China is the emerging world power, getting it very right.

“Few other powerful
nations are getting it wrong for placing limit on childbearing years back. 75% of Canadians are made up of foreigners.
In few years to come, the land may be controlled by foreigners.

“Aside this, the
dictates of God on more procreation should be respected by individuals willing
to bear more children. Grace is great. Having more children is not measurement
of poverty. Many rose from grass to grace.

“Education is the
key. China becomes powerful on their passion in technical education. The
government should focus more on improving technical education. Education is as
important as human blood.

“Basic education
from primary to secondary should be free and made compulsory for everyone. Higher education should be subsidized. This
will encourage average pursuit of knowledge while technical trainings is also
promoted. This is the strength of any developed nation.”

Oba Akanbi added:
“The population of the northern states for years is an edge over other regions.
There is need to harp on the quality of education and not putting embargo on
the number of children.

“I thank the
President for situating the Federal College of Education in Iwo which is the
most populous town in the State of Osun. Iwo’s strength is her population and I
will tell my subjects to say no to family planning as long as a responsible
government is on hand. We were marginalised before, but the future is great for
us through our strength in human resources.”
