L’Afrique, si pauvre de son petrole…
La malédiction du pétrole
Quelles sont les retombées de la manne pétrolière pour les populations ? Jusqu'à présent, les pays potentiellement les plus riches restent englués dans un incroyable sous-développement. Ainsi, l´ensemble du peuple nigérian n´a guère vu la couleur de l´argent. Quant aux Ogoni du delta du Niger, d´où sort la majeure partie du pétrole du Nigeria, ils vivent dans une pauvreté sans nom. Au Soudan, ce sont désormais les Nuers, qui habitent les vastes champs pétrolifères dans le sud qui sont menacés.
Au Congo, malgré des recettes pétrolières importantes qui représentent 70 % des revenus du pays, le niveau d´endettement par habitant reste le plus important au monde. Cet endettement est de 6,4 millards de dollars (environ 3 670 millards de Foefa) et représente, selon le Fonds monétaire international (FMI), deux fois de produit intérieur brut du pays. L´Angola, deuxième producteur de pétrole d´Afrique noire, est également un des pays les plus pauvres du monde. Le dernier rapport du Programme des Nations unies pour le Développement (PNUD) le class à la 160e place sur 177 des pays les moins développés.
Le Tchad tolère (a)nal, on l´a vu, les pressions des bailleurs de fonds pour plus de transparence dans la gestion des pétrodollars. Et Nigeria, premier producteur africain de pétrole, est aussi l´un des pays les plus corrompus au monde. Selon Peter Eugen, président de Transparency International, la corruption coute chaque année à l´Afrique des milliards de dollars…

Africa, Impoverished Despite Oil Riches
The Curse of Oil
By MARIE-CHRISTINE SIMONET
Published in Le français dans le monde, Issue number 12, November 2006
What is the impact of the oil manna on the population? Until now, the potentially richest countries remain stuck in an unbelievable state of underdevelopment. For this reason, the Nigerian population has hardly seen any money from oil revenues. As far as the Ogoni in Niger’s Delta region are concerned, where a major part of Nigeria’s oil is extracted, they live in unspeakable poverty. In Sudan, the Nuer tribes who inhabit the vast oil fields in the south are now threatened.
In Congo, despite the substantial oil revenues that represent 70% of the country’s revenues, the level of debt per capita remains the highest in the world. This debt amounts to 6.4 billion dollars (approximately 2,670 billion Fcfa), and is equal to two times the Gross Domestic Product of the country according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Angola, the second largest oil-producing country in Sub-Saharan Africa, is equally one of the poorest countries in the world. The latest report published by the United Nations Program for Development (UNDP) ranked it at 160th among 177 of the least developed countries.
As we have already seen, Chad has had difficulties dealing with pressure from investors for greater transparency in the management of petrodollars. Nigeria, Africa’s largest producer of oil, is also one of the most corrupt countries in the world. According to Peter Eugen, president of Transparency International, corruption costs Africa billions of dollars per year…
