Before we delve into the matter, let me decode the message in text,  word for word: "About the economy, we have a very young population, our population is estimated conservatively to be 180 million. This is a very conservative one. More than 60 percent of that population is below 30, a lot of them haven’t been to school and they are claiming that Nigeria is an oil  producing country, therefore, they should sit and do nothing, and Get housing, healthcare, education for free." - PMB To begin with the population figures, let me highlight assumptions based on existing information about Nigeria.
