NIGERIA JOINS SWITZERLAND, SINGAPORE, CHINA AND NEW ZEALAND ON THE LIST OF COUNTRIES NOT INDEBTED TO THE IMF



 Nigeria just cleared its IMF tab, wiring the last dollar of a $3.4 billion emergency loan and officially logging a zero balance with the Fund.

The administration adds that Nigeria now faces only about $30 million a year in SDR charges, a footnote next to the $4.66 billion the Debt Management Office spent on foreign-debt servicing in 2024, and is proof of tight fiscal discipline that should reassure global investors.


While this doesn't mean Nigeria is entirely debt-free, it does close one of its most symbolic obligations.


Nigeria joins Switzerland, Singapore, China and New Zealand among the Fund-independent economies, giving Africa's largest market fresh leverage at the global finance table.
