Wayo - nice word, and fitting for Nigeria. Nigeria is an excellent example of the poverty that results from a culture of theft instead of individual freely-traded property rights which are protected by law in a corruption-free state.

It has been a few years since $11 a barrel, so you need to adjust for the financial gravitation constant which changes for a fixed observer in the special theory of financial relativity according to the USD pixelation velocity.

$11 a barrel then is $20 a barrel today or perhaps even $30. It's hard to get a grip on USD traveling at the speed of light and the observers are running flat out around in circles.
