 Obi faults leadership as IMF omits Nigeria from Africa’s top growth list 


Peter Obi, former presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), says Nigeria’s exclusion from the list of Africa’s fastest-growing economies should serve as a wake-up call for the country’s leaders.


On October 17, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) excluded Nigeria from the list of Africa’s fastest-growing economies.


The IMF listed Benin, Côte d’Ivoire, Ethiopia, Rwanda, and Uganda as the fastest-growing economies on the continent in its Regional Economic Outlook report for sub-Saharan Africa, launched in Washington DC.


In a statement on Thursday, Obi said the countries ranked by the IMF were not wealthier than Nigeria in natural resources, but had surpassed it through discipline, effective leadership, and consistent investment in their people.


He said the countries have prioritised education, healthcare, and poverty reduction while maintaining fiscal prudence and stability.


“Our economy continues to suffer from poor policy choices, corruption, and waste.”
