Fifth largest economy africa now lagos

I think there may be some confusion here!

Lagos is a city, not a country, and it is not the fifth largest economy in Africa. Lagos is the largest city in Nigeria and the fifth most populous city in the world, with a population of over 21 million people.

The fifth largest economy in Africa is actually Egypt, with a GDP of over $245 billion in 2020, according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

Here are the top 5 economies in Africa, in order of GDP:

  1. Nigeria - $246 billion
  2. South Africa - $240 billion
  3. Egypt - $245 billion
  4. Algeria - $173 billion
  5. Morocco - $143 billion

Lagos, as a city, does not have a separate economy or GDP, as it is part of the Nigerian economy. However, Lagos is a significant economic hub in Nigeria and West Africa, with a growing economy driven by industries such as finance, manufacturing, and services.
