ABSTRACT
This research work discusses on
the levels and trends of nuptaility variables among women in Nigeria. The
ultimate objective of the study emphasized more on those variables, which may
be relevant in addressing the problem of rapid population growth. The
nuptiality variables among women in Nigeria was examined using secondary data
drawn mainly from 1981 / 82 Nigeria fertility Survey (NFS), 2006 Population
census and 2009, 2010 and 2011 Nigeria Demographic and health survey (NDHS).
The standardization techniques. The results of the analysis show that
universally of marriage among women still persists. Secondly, there is a shift
in age at first marriage over time and seems to stem from the fact that the
proportion of ever married women decreases over time. This rise in age at first
marriage is slow a relatively high marital stability. Therefore, the
consideration of marriage as an element of fertility change is recommended to
check the rapid population growth. Further research on the reasons for slow
rise in age at first marriage and how it can be improved upon has also been
suggested.
