How Nigerian economy is surviving economic shocks triggered by US-Iran conflict – FG

NIGERIA’s Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun, has said that Nigeria’s economy is surviving the economic shocks triggered by the US-Israel-Iran conflict.

A statement on Monday, April 13, by Special Adviser on Media and Communications to the Minister, Ogho Okiti, said the global economic shock had impacted the “government’s economic reform plans for wealth creation and lifting millions out of poverty.”

Edun emphasised that Nigeria was not insulated, but more resilient, citing some reforms such as the crude-for-naira policy and increased oil production as supportive and economically impacting policies.
