Nigeria is the country of all records in Africa. Although the Nigerian economy approached the COVID-19 health crisis in a degraded situation, Nigeria was able to count on rare resilience and undeniable structural assets, an unparalleled market size, 1st African economy in terms of GDP ( 448.12 billion USD in 2019), and a young population of 206 million inhabitants, expected to double within 20 years, which will propel the country onto the podium of the most populated in the world after China and India.
It is also a much more diversified economy than one imagines, with a booming services sector which represents more than half of its economy, agricultural production in full development and a cultural industry which radiates throughout the continent, through its music, cinema and fashion. For all these reasons, Nigeria remains an essential stopover for any prospecting in sub-Saharan Africa.
