Nigeria’s Total Debt Escalates To N24.4 Trillion

The nation’s total debt stock escalated in 2018 to N24.387 trillion ($79. 437 billion), about N2.7 trillion or 9.1 per cent higher than the N21.725 trillion recorded at end of 2017. 





Director-General of the Debt Management Office, DMO, Ms. Patience Oniha, disclosed this while briefing newsmen on the national debt profile in Abuja yesterday.


She said that domestic debt accounted for 68.18 percent of the figure which consisted of debts owed by both the federal and state governments. The N24.387 trillion debt stock at the end of 2018 represented a N 2,661trillion or 12.25 per cent increase above the figure of December 31, 2017, which stood at N 21.725 trillion.


The DMO said that the CBN Official Exchange Rate of US$1/N306 as at December 31, 2017 and US$1/ N307.00 as at December 31, 2018 were used for the conversion of External Debt Stock to Naira.

The new borrowings since the current administration came into power were: 2015, N1.457 trillion; 2016, not available; 2017, N2.321 trillion; 2018 N 1. 643 trillion; and 2019 (as proposed) N1.649 trillion.

  3. SDK the thing reach to shout ooh I am telling you. Lai Mohammed and Femi Adesina will soon come up with the accusations of apportioning the blame on PDP.

    Sometimes I am happy that Buhari came into power in 2015, for if he had not succeeded with his ambition, people would have thought he would have been the Messiah or the best President Nigeria never had.

    Now we have seen it all with Mr 'Integrity'. They should continue deceiving themselves.

    3. Taju or Teejames, abeg shift. The only truth here is the exchange rate.

  11. And yet nothing to show for it with all the trillions they've borrowed. Poor infrastructure, power sector is almost dead. Nothing seems to work. I just tire for the kind of leaders we have.
