Nigeria’s Economy Picks Up Speed Thanks to Tinubu’s Changes, Says Finance Chief

Nigeria’s top money official claims the country’s finances are on the mend after a set of tough fixes brought in by President Bola Tinubu.

Wale Edun, who oversees the economy and serves as finance minister, shared the update with reporters in the capital on Thursday. He had just finished telling the president about the latest figures.

Edun pointed to a 4.3 per cent rise in the size of the economy, the best jump in ten years. This lift touches 13 main areas of work, showing how the new plans are helping widely.

“The finances are bouncing back and taking well to the steps from the Tinubu team,” Edun noted.

He said trust from overseas backers has grown a lot. Proof came when Nigeria’s recent loan sale in Europe drew in 13 billion dollars more than needed.

Prices are also starting to settle, which should help people buy more with their cash, he added.

Edun called Nigeria’s recent drop from a global watch list on dirty money a big win that boosts the nation’s standing abroad.

“These wins prove the president’s money fixes are paying off. We see real gains in size, trust, and steady spending,” he said.

The government plans to keep up the good work by growing the economy further, lifting output in every field, and making sure ordinary folk feel the upsides soon.
