Nigeria’s economy just hit a speed bump, and the numbers from the National Bureau of Statistics are raising eyebrows.
So, here’s the latest from the National Bureau of Statistics, Nigeria’s economy isn’t growing quite as fast as it was.
According to new data released by the NBS on Monday, the country’s Gross Domestic Product, or GDP, grew by 3.89% year-on-year in real terms during the first quarter of 2026. That’s a noticeable slowdown compared to previous quarters.
The figures come directly from the NBS’s Q1 2026 GDP report, as reported by cbinews.tv.
More details are expected to follow as analysts dig into what’s driving the dip.
