The Presidency on Monday welcomed the new Gross Domestic Product (GDP) figures released by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) as a clear indication of ongoing progress in the Nigerian economy. According to him, the Buhari administration welcomes the new growth figures, and will continue to work diligently on a daily basis to ensure inclusive growth. The figures just released by the NBS, showed oil, agriculture and industrial sectors leading the chart. “The positive growth in Q3 is consistent with the improvements in other indicators. “As inflation trends downwards, and with steady implementation of the ERGP, real growth should soon be realised across all sectors in a mutually reinforcing manner.”
