Government highlights positive GDP performance as evidence of policy impact and economic resilience
Nigeria’s Minister of Finance, Wale Edun, has praised the country’s 4.07 percent year-on-year economic growth recorded in the fourth quarter (Q4) of 2025, describing the performance as a positive signal of economic progress and policy effectiveness.
The latest growth figure, released by the National Bureau of Statistics, reflects expansion across key sectors of the economy and marks continued recovery amid ongoing fiscal and structural reforms. The minister noted that the result demonstrates improved macroeconomic stability and strengthening output in critical areas contributing to national development.
According to officials, sustained growth is linked to reforms aimed at boosting revenue generation, supporting private sector activity, and diversifying economic output beyond traditional sectors. Stakeholders say the performance indicates resilience despite global economic pressures and domestic adjustments.
The finance ministry emphasized that maintaining momentum will require continued policy consistency, investment in infrastructure, support for small and medium-sized enterprises, and expansion of non-oil exports. Economic analysts have described the growth rate as encouraging while urging sustained implementation of structural reforms to ensure long-term stability.
With Q4 2025 growth standing at 4.07 percent, government authorities expressed optimism that ongoing initiatives will further strengthen economic performance and enhance investor confidence in the months ahead.
