By 2050, the world is likely to have changed drastically from what we know now, and the planet's economic and financial landscape will be no exception.
A report from professional services giant PwC looks at which economies around the world will be the biggest and most powerful in 33 years time.
The report, titled "The long view: how will the global economic order change by 2050?" ranked 32 countries by their projected global gross domestic product by purchasing power parity.
PPP is used by macroeconomists to determine the economic productivity and standards of living among countries across a certain time period.
With the exception of the USA, many of the world's current powerhouse economies like Japan and Germany will have slipped down global rankings, replaced by countries such as India and Indonesia, which are currently emerging markets.

Excluding Nigeria

Nigeria has always been in the best position to attain what ever Level they wanted and compete with the world best economies owing to it's abundant natural resources and manpower which they have at their deposal. However, the greedy nature of a typical Nigerian would never allow her(Nigeria) move forward.

i always tell people Nigeria has fixed the "whiteman" at the center. what will you mention that Nigeria doesn't have. Is it brains? resources? money? manpower? strength as a nation/people? Even in wrong doings we are the top.

we as a people just need to calm down, fight the greed and we will be on our way to the top.

Stop this rubbish. 2050 is too long, I will almost be 70 by then.

The person who wrote this is on drugs. Nigeria 14th World Economic Power? You've got to be kidding me.
