Macron said Africa has a civilization problem and he blames africa women for giving birth to 8kids and in France he is choking unions and shrinking legislature and a fan of Trump too Libs and Socialist wanalilia chooni next I think anapunguza Aid funding.

He shot himself in the foot.
The truth hurts. Huku watu wanaambiwa wazaane ati ili wapate more voters. Families in Kenya are churning out more kids than the economy is providing jobs. Then we complain that there are no jobs. That coupled with corruption and you get a fucked up situation.
The truth hurts Na liberals wanakuanga meffi tu
I have never heard of an economy that creates a million jobs every year. Rate at which we are giving birth and churning out graduated. How we expect our economy to is eehh I lack the proper word.
Civilization problem, I disagree. Lakini pa kuzaa ovyo ovyo, he is on point.
Leta link aisee…
Not surprised about this opinion from him. He is married to a granny wife.
thats a good thing then they should free the bond that they hold africa with . they signed contracts for 1000 years to mine minerals in some western African countries.
African leaders will always betray their own. Akina Mobutu signed stupid contracts after receiving personal kickbacks of billions of money. The french are still mining their resources up to today. Hypocrisy
Look here, Mr. Macron and fellow Africans whose minds you have managed to colonize to the point of hating black babies, I’m going to sire, and provide for, at least 7 beautiful African babies.
Nairobi, quite possibly the most dense area of Kenya, has over 4 million inhabitants (3.375 million during the 2009 census) but it is 239 sq. miles. Paris has 10.5 million on an area of just 41 sq miles but it’s doing well. Does is sound right to be lecturing the African on population growth?
This stupid muthica-cuwe assfucker is worried that the African is becoming emancipated through his numbers. The problem, my fellows, is not family size.
And he doesn’t have any kids.
There was a story in Today’s DN of a 37 year old Uganda woman with 38 children! The doctors said it would be harmful for her to stop giving birth because her ovaries were producing too many eggs. :eek:
“Having these unfertilised eggs accumulate poses not only a threat to destroy the reproductive system but can also make the woman lose their lives,” Dr Ahmed Kikomeko from Kawempe General Hospital explains.

Lost along the way, a boda boda rider offers to lead me to her home since they know her by her unique name.
Nalongo Muzaala Bana (the twin mother that produces quadruples) is what Mariam Nabatanzi Babirye goes by where she resides in Kabimbiri village, Mukono District.
HOME DELIVERY
An overcrowded neighbourhood with children running all over welcomes me to Nabatanzi’s home.
At 37, Nabatanzi has 38 children whom she has delivered from home except the last born who is four months old.
She was delivered by caesarean section. Among her children are six sets of twins, four sets of triplets, three sets of quadruples and single births.
Ten of these are girls and the rest are boys. The oldest is 23 years old while the youngest four months.
Eager to tell her story, she takes a minute before getting into it, tilting her head lost in thoughts.
MARRIED OFF
She was married off at 12 years of age after surviving death; allegedly at her stepmother’s hands who apparently pounded glass and mixed it in the food she gave Nabatanzi and her four siblings.
Fortunately, she was away unlike her siblings who ate the food and died on the spot.
Nabatanzi breaks down when she recalls what she went through upon getting married.
In 1993, she was married off to a 40-year-old man.
“I did not know I was being married off. People came home and brought things for my father,” she recalls.
POLYGAMY
“When time came for them to leave, I thought I was escorting my aunt but when I got there, she gave me away to the man.”
Being only a young girl, she found marriage a difficult task in the new family.
“My husband was polygamous with many children from his past relationships who I had to take care of because their mothers were scattered all over,” she recounts.
“He was also violent and would beat me at any opportunity he got even when I suggested an idea that he didn’t like.”
Her father-in-law gave them a piece of land to start their family, a family for which she planned to have six children.
QUADRUPLETS
In 1994, when she was 13, Nabatanzi gave birth to twins.
Two years later, she gave birth to triplets and a year and seven months after that added a set of quadruplets.
This, she says, was nothing strange to her because she had seen it before in her lineage.
“My father gave birth to 45 children with different women and these all came in quintuplets, quadruples, twins and triplets,” she says.
Indeed, Dr Charles Kiggundu, a gynecologist at Mulago Hospital and President of gynaecologists and obstetricians in Uganda, says it is very possible for Nabatanzi to have taken after her father.
WHY THIS?
“Her case is genetic predisposition to hyper-ovulate (releasing multiple eggs in one cycle), which significantly increases the chance of having multiples; it is always genetic,” he explains.
By her sixth delivery, Nabatanzi had had 18 children and wanted to stop, so, she went to see a doctor at Namaliili Hospital.
The doctor told Nabatanzi that she could not be stopped then because she had a high ovary count, which would eventually kill her if she stopped.
“Having these unfertilised eggs accumulate poses not only a threat to destroy the reproductive system but can also make the woman lose their lives,” Dr Ahmed Kikomeko from Kawempe General Hospital explains.
“I was advised to keep producing since putting this on hold would mean death,” she explains.
IUD
“I tried using the Inter Uterine Device (IUD) but I got sick and vomited a lot, to the point of near death. I went into a coma for a month.”
At the age of 23 with now 25 children, she went back to hospital to try and stop.
“I was checked in at Mulago Hospital and advised to continue producing since the ovary count was still high.”
Kiggundu explains that women’s ovaries are at times suppressed and stopped from ovulating.
“The suppressed eggs later pile up and are released at once and here, the higher the chances of fertilising many eggs, the higher the chances of all of them dying, Nabatanzi was lucky,” he says.
VOMITING
“She must have been super ovulating, releasing many eggs in a cycle.”
He adds that Nabatanzi could have been helped if she had really wanted to stop producing, but some people are not well informed.
Nabatanzi has given up on the pleasures of life to happily take care of her 38 children’s needs.
At the birth of her four-month-old child who was delivered by C-section in December last year, she says; “I asked the doctor to stop me from more births and he said he had ‘cut my uterus from inside’. This was my only Cesarean delivery because I was still weak from the sickness I suffered when I tried to use an IUD.”
TORTURE
Kiggundu says this was most likely tubal ligation.
“With tubal ligation, the tubes are blocked, a permanent method of contraception in women, but they would continue having their menses,” explains the gynecologist.
Nabatanzi’s 25 years in marriage have been characterised by humiliation and torture.
“I have been tortured countless times by my husband; he beats to the pulp when I try to reason with him over any issue, especially when he gets home drank,” she says.
“He does not provide basic needs and welfare of the family; the children hardly know who he is since he is an absent father who gives his children names over the phone and not physically.”
‘FATHER’
Charles Musisi, 23, her eldest son, says their father disappeared and they have grown up only with their mother’s love.
“I can comfortably tell you that our siblings do not know what father looks like,” he says.
“I last saw him when I was 13 years old and only briefly in the night because he rushed off again.”
The large family, he says, does not know the happiness of living with a father.
Nabatanzi says her husband spends close to a year without coming home and when he does, he just sneaks into the house late in the night and leaves very early in the morning.
SCHOOL
“I carry these humiliations because my aunt advised me to always endure in marriage and have my children as the centre of focus. She advised me not to reproduce children from different men.”
Nabatanzi is optimistic about seeing her children through school, something her father could not do for her.
Despite being a Primary Two dropout, she has managed to educate her children.
One of her first born twins has a certificate in nursing and the other in building and construction although they have not found jobs yet.
Two of her other children are in Senior Six, three in Senior Five, four in Primary Seven, and four in Senior One.
USH100,000
The rest are between baby class and Primary Six.
“I am hopeful that my children will go to school because they all have big ambitions of being doctors, teachers and lawyers; I want them to realise these dreams, something I was not able to do.”
Nabatanzi does not have a garden or land to farm, so she has to buy food to feed her children and this is her biggest expense.
“Everything is solely from my pocket; I buy 10kg of maize flour a day, four kilogrammes of sugar a day and three bars of soap,” she narrates.
“I need to have Shs100, 000 at the least on a daily basis to have the family catered for. God has been good to me for they have never gone a day without a meal.”
WATER
Nabatanzi is in the process of raising cash to connect piped water she can sell since water is a big problem in the area, with a jerry can costing USh800.
David Kazimba, who fetches her water, says he gets her 15 jerry cans a day.
“She is a social person I have known for the last eight years. She is a hardworking and caring woman. At times, people mock her because of her many children but she just ignores them,” he says.
To meet her expenses, Nabatanzi administers local herbs for various illnesses—which she says she has done since she was a young girl— and doing casual work such as plaiting hair, decorating at events, and styling brides.
“I do not despise any job as long as it brings in some money. Feeling sorry for myself is something I dropped because I know these children are a gift from God that I have to treasure, so I try my level best to fend for them.”
HEART PROBLEM
Nabatanzi’s five-year-old son who was diagnosed with a heart problem early this year worries her as she has to spend Shs120, 000 a week to buy him medicine.
“In January, the doctors at Mulago Hospital advised me to raise Shs35m in nine months to have him taken to India for an operation,” she says.
“Since I do not have this money yet, I buy him medicine to help him cope in the meantime.”
Nabatanzi finds solace in her children as the family she never had while growing up.
“I wish I could get a helping hand to help me with my children’s schooling, which is my major concern,” she says.
LOVE
“I stopped looking to my husband for anything. I’m only focusing on raising my children and I am determined to do.”
The older children help with their siblings and the general home administration.
“I enjoy taking care of my children myself though. My children are my joy and I pride in caring for them. I cook, wash and bathe them with ease. Children grow better under a mother’s love and care,” she says.
Nabatanzi says she delivers her children naturally and she has always felt fine after each delivery until her recent C-section birth after which she started to develop backache after doing some home chores.
“My daughter who studied nursing used to take care of me during pregnancy. Eventually, I learnt how to do this, so I have not had any difficulties or complications with my pregnancies,” she explains.

France has no moral authority to lecture africa when its practically living off west africa …cut the colonial tax imposed on franco phone africa and skewed mining contracts and watch it degenerate into a regular european country
I still blame african leaders who sign contracts to sell away their country resources with a reward of receiving lifetime income of millions and citizenship in those foreign countries. A certain former african leader was given french citizenship after his term was over. He had signed away his country resources worth billion of francs. He lives like a king and has never stepped back in that country that he helped the french loot.
anyone talking about population growth being a problem is being a blonde.
after seeing his wife, I think he has got loose nuts. How do you sleep and wake up next to such a thing and the guy is damn young.
A man married to a grandmother has a problem. France is scared because more and more people are becoming aware of their illegal and inhuman activities in Africa.
The problem my friend is family size whrn you dont have the means
