I mean 63% persons of non-educated adults today are women. That's the deep roots of the gender inequalities.

One of the critical issues we have regarding the African demography is the fact that this is not a chosen fertility. I always say: "Please, present me the lady who decided, being perfectly educated to have seven, eight, nine children. Please present me the young girl who decided to leave school at 10 in order to be married at 12."

And this is not teaching African people from New York. This is pure bullshit to say that. A lot of African leaders today now dare to have this kind of speech. This is just because a lot of girls were not properly educated because people, de facto, in these countries but here as well, decided that the rights of these girls were not exactly the same as the rights of the young men, which is not acceptable.

I am fine with a lady having seven, eight children if this is her choice after education. This not the case today. That's why for me education is the main answer first to avoid the worst, second to maximize opportunities in African countries and in the rest of the world, third to properly monitor demography because it will be chosen demography.
