Nigeria will soon recover from recession – World Bank

The World Bank has said that Nigeria will soon recover from its economic recession.

Eme Essien-Lore, the Country Manager in Nigeria, International Finance Corporation, stated this in Lagos on Thursday.

”In our perspective and with the numbers that we have seen coming from the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF), Nigeria’s economy has recorded about one per cent real growth.

”That is a bit lower than government’s expectation which is about 2.2 per cent growth for 2017.

“It is a bit modest, but we certainly expect that the economy of Nigeria will rebound and recover from last year’s recession,” she said.

She also said the World Bank was happy that the Federal Government had published its economic plan.
