It's Official! Nigeria overtakes South Africa as Africa’s largest economy
Abuja – Nigeria recorded 89.22 per cent growth in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in 2013, making it the largest economy in Africa and 26th in the world. The position was previously occupied by South Africa.
Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, the Coordinating Minister for the Economy and Minister of Finance, stated this on Sunday in Abuja at a press conference on “Rebasing/Re-benchmarking of Nigeria’s GDP.’’
“We did not set out to become the biggest economy in Africa. We set out to measure how much the economy has changed. And that is the outcome. Becoming the largest economy on the continent is a positive development, but it is not destination.
“The knowledge derived will help us make better policies to grow the economy and create jobs for young Nigerians,’’ the minister said. According to her, Nigerians have worked hard to make our economy the largest in Africa, and they should be proud of the feat, but it is also a challenge and an opportunity.
She said the results of the rebasing would not make the challenges of poverty and unemployment disappear overnight, adding that it was imperative to policy making.
