Abuja, Nigeria – Nigeria’s critical crude oil production has seen a notable decline, with output falling by 4.7% from the previous month, according to the latest figures. This downturn raises concerns about the nation’s ability to maintain its economic stability, heavily reliant as it is on oil revenue.
