Korede Bello Sparks Debate After Saying More Children Could Produce “More Geniuses” Like Michael Jackson

Nigerian musician Korede Bello has argued that having more children would greatly improve the likelihood of geniuses being born.

Speaking in a video transmission, Bello said that if his parents had chosen to have fewer children, the late musical prodigy Michael Jackson, who was their seventh child, would not have been born.

He bemoaned the fact that many individuals now only have one or two children.

He emphasized that the world needed more musical prodigies like Michael Jackson and urged parents to have several children.

"I've been wondering—what if Michael Jackson's mother had stopped at two or six kids," Bello remarked. He was number seven. Just because she decided to have fewer kids, imagine a world without him. These days, a lot of people just have one child. These days, a young couple with three children is extremely uncommon.

What's causing individuals to have fewer children these days? I am aware that our ambitions to populate the planet are constrained by the state of the economy. But how will we carry on in this manner? Will we ever reach a point where children will once again occupy the house? More Michael Jackson is what we need.
