Dr Oluwatoyese Oyetade, Acting Head of the Department of Economics at KolaDaisi University, presented a paper titled “Global War on the Nigerian economy: Adjustment in a time like this”. She argued that while external pressures like geopolitical tensions and high global interest rates impact Nigeria, the country’s economic difficulties are heavily influenced by internal structural weaknesses.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The expert noted that external economic headwinds are transmitted into Nigeria through high costs of fuel, food, fertiliser, freight, and foreign exchange. This suggests that addressing domestic issues, such as dependence on crude-oil, is critical for protecting citizens from compounding economic shocks.
