NIGERIA'S ECONOMY

Nigeria’s economy is struggling to leverage the country’s vast wealth in fossil fuels in order to displace the crushing poverty that affects about 57% of its population. Nigeria’s exports of oil and natural gas have enabled the country to post merchandise trade and current account surpluses in recent years. The largely subsistence agricultural sector has not kept up with rapid population growth, and Nigeria, once a large net exporter of food, now imports some of its food products.
