Updated 10 May 2024

The Nigerian government has made a concerted effort to diversify the economy of the nation and reduce its dependency on the oil sector. Nigeria has been able to maintain a robust growth rate as a result of the rapid expansion of its non-oil businesses.

The majority of the services sector’s subsectors have experienced double-digit growth, making this sector a major engine of the country’s economic growth.

The telecommunications sector expanded on average by 20%. This sector, together with the banking industry, is in charge of producing a sizable number of well-paying positions that have aided in the recent growth of the middle class.

The increase of Nigeria’s middle class and the non-oil private sector economy have been fuelled by an increasing number of professionals and managers in high-paying industries like banking and telecommunications.

A growing number of private business operators have also found success. Shares of consumer services companies can be a profitable investment for investors.
