Abstract
The World population reached the 6 billion mark and it is estimated that Africa's population was nearly 800 millions representing around 13 percent of the world population. Africa continues to have the highest population growth rate in the world. If this situation continues unabated it is estimated that early in the coming century Africa will have passed the billion mark thus representing around 15 percent of the world population compared to only 7 percent a century ago. However, the problem for Africa is not much the absolute number of the population but rather the rational population management through redistribution and diversification of human capacities.
