The crude birth rate in Nigeria saw no significant changes in 2022 in comparison to the previous year 2021 and remained at around 36.61 live births per 1,000 inhabitants. But still, the rate reached its lowest value of the observation period in 2022. The crude birth rate is the annual number of live births in a given population, expressed per 1,000 people. When looked at in unison with the crude death rate, the rate of natural increase can be determined.
The crude birth rate indicates the number of live births occurring during the year, per 1,000 population estimated at midyear. Subtracting the crude death rate from the crude birth rate provides the rate of natural increase, which is equal to the rate of population change in the absence of migration.
