Can't see this lasting simply because Nigeria has lower GDP per capita, lower levels of economic development and faster population growth which should mean we are more likely to experience "catch up" growth.

South Africa is projected to briefly surpass Nigeria and Egypt as the largest economy on the continent next year, International Monetary Fund forecasts reveal.

The IMF's World Economic Outlook projects South Africa's gross domestic product to reach $401 billion in 2024, surpassing Nigeria's $395 billion and Egypt's $358 billion, all at current prices.

However, this shift is predicted to be temporary, as South Africa is expected to hold the top spot for just one year before trailing Nigeria once more. By 2026, South Africa is projected to fall to third place behind Egypt, as outlined in the report released last week.

I really believe UK is stealing our oil from the back door...


The most dangerous most powerful man is a man that heals his wounds on his own...

That man has had more conversations with his mind than with other mere human...

We need to look inwardly within ourselves to solve our problems and create prosperity for ourselves.
