This evaluation which was organised and funded by Belgium and the Netherlands, first explains how the deal came about between 2000 and 2005. It goes on to reveal the consequences for the Nigerian economy, and the impact on poverty reduction in Nigeria, with more than 150 million inhabitants, the country with the biggest population in Africa.
