It’s not a new thing that a great nation like Nigeria which is a giant of Africa is going through the devastation of economic breakdown because the government and nation believe in oil wealth whereas they many other mineral resources that the government and the people have underestimated.

Back in the 50s and 60s the country was doing well before the discovery of petroleum, They were benefiting from agriculture especially but now the nation has chosen to abandon it and embrace oil wealth.

Apart from the oil wealth, the country is also blessed with many other minerals resources that they can monetize and other countries will start to prioritize them such as


Iron ore
Gold
Zinc
Copper
Manganese
Talc
Petroleum
Phosphate
Molybdenum
Iron
Silver
And many more
