Case Study: Aid & Development in Nigeria
Nigeria's relationships with the rest of the world.
Trading and political relationships between Nigeria and the rest of the world have changed over time.
Nigeria's global trading links
- Nigeria used to export most of its oil to the USA, but now most of its oil goes to India.
- Nigeria's most important trading partner is the European Union.
Nigeria's global political links
- Nigeria was a part of the British Empire and is now a member of the Commonwealth.
- Nigeria is also a member of the United Nations and the African Union.
Aid Received by Nigeria
Nigeria benefits from international aid in many forms, but there are concerns that some money is misspent because of corruption and that aid can lead to dependency. Examples of aid to Nigeria include:
Multilateral aid received by Nigeria
- The World Bank loaned US$50 million to Nigeria in 2014 for development projects.
Bilateral aid received by Nigeria
- The USA has funded projects to tackle the spread of AIDS.
Voluntary aid received by Nigeria
- Nets for Life (an NGO) helps tackle malaria by educating people and giving out bed nets.
The Impacts of Economic Development in Nigeria
Whilst the Human Development Index has increased in Nigeria, there are still many poor people and corruption is a major problem. There have also been significant environmental consequences related to economic development.
Pros of economic development in Nigeria
- Higher disposable income
- Improved infrastructure
- Better diets have led to increased life expectancy
- More reliable supplies of water and electricity
- More jobs in the formal sector, with reliable pay
Cons of economic development in Nigeria
- Factories in cities such as Lagos can pollute water and air, harming wildlife and people.
- 70-80% of Nigeria’s forests have been cut down. This has led to water pollution, soil erosion and loss of habitats.
- The capital city of Abuja suffers from traffic congestion and waste disposal problems.
- The oil industry has polluted parts of the Niger Delta, damaging ecosystems and making it hard for farmers and fishermen to survive.
