Nigeria has experienced significant economic growth in recent years due to rising oil prices and economic restructuring. It has the largest economy in West Africa and the third largest in Africa, with GDP growth expected to be 10% in 2011. Nigeria's economy depends heavily on oil production and exports, which account for 80% of GDP and over 90% of exports. However, other sectors like telecommunications, financial services, manufacturing, and construction have also grown substantially. Nigeria now aims to maximize its natural resource potential and develop necessary infrastructure to become a leading global economy.
