GDP: IMF Ranks Nigeria 1st In Africa, 26th In The World by NofiuFade(m): 10:09am On Dec 29, 2020
Nigeria stands as the number one country in Africa in the International Monetary Fund (IMF) 2020 World Economic Outlook’s ratings of countries.

Using countries’ GDPs, IMF ranked Nigeria among the first 26 countries in the world in the same position with an average $442,976 million.

Countries are sorted by nominal GDP estimates from financial and statistical institutions, which are calculated at market or government official exchange rates.

Nominal GDP does not take into account differences in the cost of living in different countries, and the results can vary from one year to another based on fluctuations in the exchange rates of the country’s currency.

Such fluctuations may change a country’s ranking from one year to the next, even though they often make little or no difference in the standard of living of its population.

Nigeria had put in place several measures to improve on the economy by tackling various sectors that has direct impact on the lives of its citizens.

The Economic Recovery Growth Plan (ERGP) of the government aims to tackle the key challenges to economic development through tackling constraints to growth and leveraging on the power of the private sector.

It also initiates the promotion of national cohesion and social inclusion, allowing markets to function as well as uphold the core values that define the Nigerian society as enshrined in the 1999 Constitution.

The key principles on which the ERGP stands are focus on tackling constraints to growth; leveraging the power of the private sector and promoting national cohesion and social inclusion.

Others are allowing markets to function and upholding core values that define the Nigerian society.

Something to cheer about, at least.

I hope this positively impact on personal economies in the coming year.


Hope IMF isn't trying to court us for another loan.

First in terms of loan borrowing or terrorism or hunger or poverty or inflation or banditry......

If its for GDP....then the world bank have err because there's no significant relationship between high GDP and improved standard of living of the people.

Actually not impressed

1.GDP is down from 2014..where it was $500billion.

2.The GDP is dependent directly and indirectly on oil prices...which means that tthe more oil falls, the more the thing falls.

3.If this is the highest in Africa, Africa is really broke.

4.Per capitta GDP is $2200. Some developing countries have per capita ten tto twenty times higher than that.

This is not cause for rejoicing.

The poorest country by GDP per capita in the world is NIGER republic.

When it comes to the highest concentration of poor people in one country, it is NIGERIA.

Do you see any resemblance here ?

Nigeria cannot appear in first 5 GDP per capita is Africa self based on 210m people. The population is too much.

South Africa has the second highest GDP figure but less than 100m people.

Economic outlook refers to projections. It doesn't contain anything. They are gambling.
