President Buhari today said the sudden fall in oil price in the
international market has made Nigeria to become a poor
country. He said this while speaking at a meeting with the
executive director of the United Nations Population Fund
(UNFPA) and under secretary-general of the United Nations,
Babatunde Osotimehin, at the state House Abuja today
August 11th.
“It has been a very difficult year for Nigeria. Before we
came to office, petroleum sold for about $100 per barrel.
Then it crashed to $37, and now oscillates between $40 and
$45 per barrel. Suddenly, we’re a poor country, but
commitment to transparency and accountability is not
making people know that there is severe shortage.”he said
