Why People Should Have Many Children — Korede Bello
Nigerian singer Korede Bello has urged couples to consider having more children, saying it could increase the likelihood of producing exceptional talents.
Bello made the call in a video broadcast where he reflected on declining family sizes and their possible impact on the emergence of future geniuses.
He cited the late pop icon Michael Jackson as an example, noting that the music legend was the seventh child in his family.
According to him, if Jackson’s parents had chosen to have fewer children, the world might have been deprived of his talent.
The singer expressed concern over what he described as a growing trend of couples having only one child or fewer.
He said the development could limit the chances of nurturing extraordinary individuals in different fields, particularly in music.
Bello acknowledged that economic realities may influence family planning decisions but questioned the long-term implications of the trend.
He stressed the need for a balance, noting that society could benefit from larger families.
The artiste said the world needs more talents like Michael Jackson, adding that increasing the number of children could improve the chances of such individuals emerging.
He also raised concerns about the declining presence of large households, which he said were once common.
Bello suggested that families filled with children could contribute to a more vibrant and diverse society.
He maintained that while financial considerations are important, the broader impact on future generations should also be considered.
The singer concluded that encouraging larger families could help sustain the emergence of creative and exceptional individuals globally.
