As global economic growth stalls and stutters, amid trade war threats and rising protectionism of all kinds, former behemoths of the planet struggle yet sub-Saharan countries are still on track for notable developments. Nigeria has been nothing short of spectacular in managing to drop its dependence on oil to 10% of the economy, getting agriculture above 22% and services to more than half of the nation’s GDP. This fast-growing country of dynamic young people accounts for almost three-quarters of the West African economy. There are more than two million mobile money agents in developing countries and half the 300 million mobile money registered accounts globally are located in sub-Saharan Africa. Institutional and governance reforms are laying the groundwork for swift developments.
