Nigeris is rather poor compared to the rest of the world and especially in the world market, but I think compared to the rest of Sub-Saharan Africa it is not so bad... but I'm not sure on that

Nope. The rich and poor countries are intertwined whether they like it or not. The rich need the poor to exploit and the poor need the rich in order to be exploited. There would not be one without the other.

All I know about Nigeria is that their number one source of income comes from scamming citizens of other countries.  Never, ever trust anyone or anything that comes from Nigeria. And don't expect any of the higher officials in that country to help you out of a bind ... they stick together. \n\nOn a lighter note, they have a few good websites about their policies, etc ... search for Nigerian Government .

Nigeria is your destination. Nigeria is a country in West Africa and they've got a lot of crude oil money to spend. I am not an importer, I am a computer Engineer but if you want I can get you hooked up with some boutique materials importers that i know.

Nigeria does not seem to have a great fiscal policy or a proper program for implementation. Also statistics of Nigeria can be totally misleading considering the corrupt governance of the country. African countries have beautiful paper work but little practical application. It is a sad thing to note that so much of money is pumped into these countries that vanish in thin air without reaching the needy. The people have to change their attitude first. Pride and honesty must be their top priority if at all they need to become a respectable nations.

It's not forgotten in fact it's one of the riches countries....There is just a huge gap between the poor and the rich. The rich are extremely rich and the poor are extremely poor. They don't have a true middle class.

Low standard of living, under developed industrial base, low HDI... a lot of developing countries also tend to have large amounts of cheap labor (india for call centers, malasia for computer parts) which, despite common misconception, is actually very good for the developing countries.

I would say they are not poor, However, the Dictators, take all the money in the africa nations. Look at Zim for one africa nation, under the white govenment it was a flourishing country, however when margarbi took over and killed or deported all the white farmers it went to pot. Moreover this country is still rich and it shows because margarbi was seen on his ship eating rich cake and drinking really expensive wine. Margarbi is just like every dictatier he is rich while his people suffer. I watched a Documentry on this the other day. under the old govenment people called afford lux items now people cant afford bread. What do the western govenment do about this nothing because Zim as no oil. other African nations have dimonds and oil, for instance Sierra Leone the british forces are in there. However, one guy as got that the Amercian own the dimond mines i think he will find there mostly british companys set-up by the east india and african companys. ie de-beers\nt

Nigeria    (n -jîr  - )\nA country of western Africa on the Gulf of Guinea. A variety of states were established in the region prior to the arrival of Europeans, including the Bornu, Benin, and Songhai empires. Exploited by Portuguese, British, French, and Dutch traders in the 17th and 18th centuries, Nigeria was eventually claimed by the British, who consolidated the area into one colony in 1914. The country attained its independence in 1960. Abuja is the official capital (since 1991), but many government offices remain in Lagos, the former capital and the largest city. Population: 108,467,000. .\nEthiopia    (  th -  p - ) Formerly Abyssinia ( b  -s n  - ). \nA country of northeast Africa. A kingdom was established around Aksum in the 1st century A.D. and declined in the 7th century. After a long period of disorder, the area was finally reunited in 1889 by Emperor Menelik II, who greatly expanded Ethiopia by conquest. Italy invaded in 1935 and held the country until 1941. Following the military overthrow of Emperor Haile Selassie (ruled 1930-1974), a socialist state was established. The country suffered enormous hardship from war with rebels from the province of Eritrea (which declared independence in 1993) and from famine and drought. Guerrilla forces toppled the government in 1991 and subsequently established a transitional government. Addis Ababa is the capital and the largest city. Population: 32,775,000.
