The achievement is proof of broad-based economic expansion and enhanced macroeconomic stability under President Bola Tinubu, Nigeria's Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun, said, noting it was only the second time in a decade that quarterly growth surpassed 4%, building on Q3 2024's 3.76%.
According to Edun, Q4 growth was propelled by Nigeria’s three primary sectors:

🟠services expanded by 4.15%, led by finance, telecoms, trade, and technology.
The minister emphasized that roughly 30 subsectors recorded over 3% growth, reflecting a diversified economic expansion.
For the full year 2025, Nigeria's real GDP grew by 3.87%, an increase from 3.38% in 2024, with the economy expanding from $275 billion to $325 billion. The minister attributed the growth to:
🟠improved fiscal coordination,
