The Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund, Kristalina Georgieva, has commended Nigeria’s economic reforms under the leadership of President Bola Tinubu.
In a statement on her X on Thursday after meeting with President Tinubu at the G20 Summit in Brazil, Georgieva hailed Nigeria’s decisive measures aimed at fostering economic growth and creating jobs for its citizens.
Describing her engagement with President Tinubu as “excellent,” the IMF boss highlighted the progress made by Nigeria in its quest for economic stability.
According to her, the IMF remains strongly committed to supporting Nigeria on its path to recovery and sustained development.
Although the IMF boss praised the ongoing reforms of the Nigerian government, which included removal of subsidy on petrol and exchange rate harmonisation, but Nigerians have severally criticized these policies that have impoverished millions of Nigerians and have been responsible for the exit of scores of companies and businesses from Nigeria.
