Insights from The Punch show PwC Nigeria is projecting a 4.3% expansion in Nigeria’s GDP in 2026, pointing to energy sector recovery and ongoing digital transformation in financial services.
The report also linked growth prospects to sustained reform momentum, including fiscal adjustments and improvements in oil-region security.
PwC flagged risks around inflation and external shocks, warning that poorly managed transitions could squeeze SMEs.
**Echotitbits take:** The projection is achievable—but only if reforms translate into investment, stable prices and inclusive growth. Watch for policy clarity and execution speed, especially around taxes, FX and energy.
