The Minister of Finance, Mrs. Kemi
Adeosun, has said she cannot predict when Nigeria will get out of the current
economic recession. She, however, said that some of the efforts of the
government to reflate the economy had started yielding results.
Speaking during an interview in Abuja,
the minister said:
"I don't want to predict when we
will get out of recession. Let me tell you that we'll get into growth and
that's how you get out of recession, because of the stimulus that we are
providing.
"And it may take longer than we
would like, but we will definitely get out of it. We are already seeing some
positive signs in agriculture and solid minerals; and with what we are trying
to do with other sectors, I am very sure we will get out of it soon."
