Nigeria’s oil production ends in 41 years - World Bank Written by Abdulwasiu Hassan Friday, 05 October 2012 05: Nigeria’s oil reserve will be depleted in 41 years, according to a World Bank Group’s twice-yearly analysis of the issues shaping Africa’s economic prospects called Africa’s pulse. The report which was presented by the World Bank’s chief economist for Africa, Shantayanan Devarajan, yesterday said Nigeria’s and Angola’s oil reserves will be depleted in 41 and 21 years respectively. “Nigeria, the largest regional producer, can keep supplying at 2011 levels for another 41 years, while Angola, the second largest producer in the region, has about 21 years remaining at current production levels before its known reserves are depleted. “Given the size of these reserves, it is likely that the dependence on oil resources in these countries are likely to continue in the near to medium term. Production in newly oil-rich countries such as Ghana and Uganda could also last for several years.” According to the World bank’s chief economist, Mineral wealth in African countries including Nigeria don’t translate to prosperity because the money accruing from it doesn’t pass through the citizens, and the citizens don’t see the wealth as theirs. |

About time too, maybe, just maybe our leaders will start focusing on other ways of generating revenue rather than just relying on oil production. |
