Nigeria has overtaken South Africa as Africa's largest economy after a
rebasing calculation almost doubled its gross domestic product to more
than $500bn, data from the statistics office showed.
GDP for 2013 in Africa's top oil producer was 80.22 trillion naira,
or $509.9bn, the Nigeria Bureau of Statistics said on Sunday, up from
the 42.3 trillion estimated before the rebasing, according to the
Reuters news agency.
