IMF warns Nigeria of debt and oil and revenue risks.

IMF Warns Nigeria Over Rising Debt, Falling Oil Revenue and Fiscal Risks

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has issued a cautionary note to Nigeria, warning that the country’s heavy reliance on oil, growing domestic debt, and overly optimistic revenue projections pose significant thr+ats to its economy.

The warning came during the IMF’s latest Article IV consultation, which revealed that Nigeria’s 2025 budget remains vulnerable due to declining oil prices, reduced production output, and a fiscal deficit projected to reach 4.7% of GDP.

They steal crude oil and call it production shortfall.

Based on this so-called production shortfall, they will have to tax Nigerians more in order to meet up with payment of interest on IMF and WB loans, because those loans are backed by crude oil production and sales targets.

You might wonder, why steal crude oil when you can steal the revenue after the sale? If you steal already recorded crude revenue, you have to back it up with documentation that can be queried later by another government. So they steal the crude and record less production.

Everything is under control. Thank you God for blessing us with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Oil fundamentals are good going into winter. Glut was caused by cheap Russian oil being sold at a steep discount. India and China are pulling back on those purchases.

IMF should focus on Venezuala and Argentina.
