    • Abstract:
      This article discusses the impact of the falling oil prices on the Nigerian economy in 1981. It expects the country to reduce its oil production because of a decline in oil exports. It predicts that the trend would result in a balance-of-payments deficit of two billion U.S. dollars. The article also assesses the government's resistance to price cuts.
