How we got this
These numbers are estimates, for fun. Each answer multiplies the count by the share of people who fit, with adjustments where things go together, such as high pay and owning a car, or age and being married. Long wishlists are the least reliable. Tribe and religion answers stay on your phone. The AI that writes the demon's words gets your nickname and your other answers, and the game forgets them after two hours. The Delulu Score is the game's opinion, not a statistic: 80% comes from how far your number fell, and 20% from the demon's own marks on the questions he made up. Those questions never change the number.
Starting number
About 30 million men and 29 million women aged 25–44 in 2026, from the UN's World Population Prospects 2024. Nigeria's last census was in 2006, so this is modelled.

Age split
How the 25–44 group divides by age, from the same UN figures.

Height
Men average about 168.5 cm and women 158 cm, from NCD-RisC. Sources for men differ by 3 cm. The spread is assumed, because there's no Nigerian figure.
Our estimate
Pay
4.9% earning above ₦500k comes from the SEID Nigerian Consumer Outlook Report 2025, as reported in the press. The other levels are fitted to it and to the World Inequality Database. The split between men and women is an estimate.
Our estimate
Car ownership
10.3% of households own a car (Nigeria DHS 2024). We turned that into about 5% of people. The rise with pay is an estimate.
Our estimate
Where they live
Lagos is about 6.5% of the country, from sources that disagree. The Island is our own share of it. Nigerians abroad come from UN migrant figures; their pay and cars are estimates.
Our estimate
Marriage
Never-married shares by age and sex come straight from the Nigeria DHS 2024.
From a published table
No children
Worked out from the Nigeria DHS 2024 for women, and assumed for men.
Our estimate
Tribe and religion
Nigeria hasn't counted tribe in a census since 1963, and the figures are disputed. These sit between the Nigeria DHS 2024 and Afrobarometer surveys.
Our estimate
Comparisons
Teslim Balogun Stadium and the Moshood Abiola Stadium, a full BRT bus and a danfo. The church hall is a round number.
