**Nigeria’s Economy Grows Faster in Q1 2024 than in Q1 2023 – Wale Edun**
Nigeria’s Finance Minister and Coordinator of the Economy, Wale Edun, announced that the country’s economy experienced faster growth in the first quarter (Q1) of 2024 compared to Q1 of 2023. Edun made this statement during a press conference on the state of the economy in Abuja on Thursday.
He noted that the growth recorded in Q1 2024 was the second highest first-quarter growth in the past six years. The increase in economic activity was broad-based, impacting various sectors including agriculture and industry.
“The agricultural sector saw a recovery from a negative position in Q1 2023 to a modest growth in Q1 2024. Meanwhile, the industrial sector grew seven times faster in Q1 2024 compared to Q1 2023,” Edun explained.
On the revenue front, Edun reported that federal government revenue in the first half of 2024 was more than double that of the same period in 2023. This increase was attributed to improvements in government finances, with oil revenue as a percentage of total revenue rising from 11% in H1 2023 to 30% in H1 2024.
He also mentioned that Nigeria has been able to meet its debt obligations, with a reduction in dollar-denominated debt and improvements in the fiscal deficit.
