Daniel Bwala, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Policy Communication, declared Nigeria’s economic outlook brighter than ever, growing faster than major economies like the UK and US.
Reacting on X to the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) April 2026 World Economic Outlook, Bwala highlighted Nigeria’s projected 4.1% growth for 2026. This tops the US at 2.3%, UK and Germany at 0.8% each, and South Africa at 1.0%. Looking ahead, Nigeria eyes 4.3% expansion in 2027, aligning with Sub-Saharan Africa’s strong 4.3% regional average for 2026.
Bwala praised the Tinubu administration’s bold reforms, saying: “Though tough, they’re delivering results.”
