Nigeria makes PwC list of 32 powerful economies by 2030
Though still smarting from the worst economic recession in its history, Nigeria has been listed among the 32 countries that will be leading the world, economically by 2030.
According to one of the international economic growth monitoring and professional-services firms, Pricewaterhouse Coopers, of more than 150 counties surveyed, Nigeria was ranked among 20 other developing countries across the world that have signs of growth, capable of seeing them have positive impacts on the new ways of doing businesses.
In the report, titled “The long view: how will the global economic order change by 2050?” Pricewaterhouse Coopers ranked 32 countries by their projected global gross domestic product by purchasing power parity (PPP).
This is measured from each country’s policy that will promote its macroeconomics towards a measurable growth in productivity and improving standards of living among countries across a certain time period.

The agency says some of the countries in the list could reverse their status as to further top the list in 13 years, or fall below.
According to Pwc, among the countries are those with the potentials to perform far more impressively by rising massively by 2030 or slipping below the rank ascribed to them.
The list of the countries that could make it in the next 13 years are those whose PPP are not expected to fall below $18.562 trillion benchmark from 2017 till the adopted date.

“This is measured from each country’s policy that will promote its macroeconomics towards a measurable growth in productivity and improving standards of living among countries across a certain time period.”
Are the policies that are currently making people poorer good enough? Are they promoting our macroeconomy in any way?

Word without action is vague. I vividly recall that during Jonathan’s regime, Nigeria was rated the best growing economy in Africa all in paper but in practical, zero. I am not usually moved with all these vague assertion or projections that Nigeria will top the economy of the world in heaven. Mtchew
