Nigeria, within the next 15 years, can earn about $150 billion from non-oil revenue sources, the Executive Director/Chief Executive Officer of Nigerian Export Promotion Council (NEPC), Segun Awolowo, has said.

Awowolo told State House Correspondents after a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the weekend that the successful implementation of a zero oil plan would significantly increase foreign exchange earnings for the country.

The NEPC boss, who was at Aso Rock to brief the president on the zero oil implementation plan and the steps taken, explained that although global oil prices rose because of Iran, there was still problem for countries like Nigeria who depended solely on the sector for revenue.
