As President Trump meets with President Muhammadu Buhari, the leader of Nigeria for a day of talks at the White House, the Washington Examiner says it could turn to crude oil very quickly.

U.S. oil is hurting Nigerian energy imports. The U.S. shale oil revolution that Trump is pushing has decimated the amount of oil imports from Nigeria.

Oil imports from Nigeria have plunged from about 40,000 barrels per month in 2007 to just more than 10,000 barrels this winter.

Over the last two years, the average amount has sunk to well below 2,000 barrels per month, according to the Energy Information Administration. Nigeria’s development boom hinges on its oil wealth.
