However, reduced revenue since the 1980s has meant a lack of maintenance and rehabilitation, leading to a sharp deterioration in many of the country's roads. Energy provision 15,11bn kWh (1998); by source - fossil fuel 61.69%; hydro 38.31%. Development of Nigeria's hydro-electricity potential has been curtailed by drought and funding difficulties. Deep mangrove swamps and creeks characterize the coastline where most of the country's oil and gas reserves are found. Expansion of industry is based on the utilization of the country's oil and gas wealth. Domestic consumption of oil currently accounts for about 20 % of total production.

GEOGRAPHY Nigeria Table of Contents Relief and Main Physical Features Much of Nigeria's surface consists of ancient crystalline rocks of the African Shield. Having been subject to weathering and erosion for long periods, the characteristic landscape of this area is extensive level plains interrupted by occasional granite mountains. These features form a major landscape type of Nigeria and of West Africa as a whole. There are also smaller areas of younger granites found, for example, on the Jos Plateau. Sedimentary strata dating from various periods overlay the older rocks in many areas. The sedimentary areas typically consist of flat-topped ridges and dissected plateaus and a characteristic landscape of extensive plains and no major rocky outcrops. This landscape is generally true of the basins of the Niger and Benue rivers as well as the depressions of the Chad and Sokoto basins in the far northeast and northwest of the country, respectively. The most dramatic of the sedimentary landscapes are in southeastern Nigeria, where thick sedimentary beds from the Abakaliki Uplift to the Anambra Basin have been tilted and eroded. This process has resulted in a rugged scarp land topography with east-facing cliffs at in the Udi Hills, north of Enugu, and in the area around Nanka and Agulu. Although relatively little of the Nigerian landscape has been shaped by volcanic episodes, there are two main areas of volcanic rock. They are found on the Biu Plateau in the northeast, extending into some localized volcanic areas along the eastern border with Cameroon, and on the Jos Plateau in the northern center of the country.
