I will always pledge to Nigeria. Evangelist Oluwagbemi.
"It takes quite something extra these days to want to embark on projects like yours. Wish you the best."..

.Nigeria's Oil Wealth Benefits May Be Lost Forever – Analysts
Standard Chartered Bank warned that with Nigeria expected to become the fourth most populous nations on earth by 2050, urgent reforms were needed to accelerate the development of infrastructure.

The benefits of NIgeria's oil wealth may be lost forever unless the government implements measures to ensure long-term savings of oil earnings or invest much more in infrastructure to lay the foundation for future economic growth.

A key issue raised was the management of the Excess Crude Account and the non-take off of the Sovereign Wealth Fund despite the injection of $1bn as seed money as the analysts noted that the absence of well defined rules for withdrawals from the Excess Crude Account has made it more susceptible to political considerations.
