NIGERIA'S GDP CONTRACTS 2.06% IN 2ND QUARTER

Nigeria's GDP has contracted 2.06% in the 2nd quarter of the year according to news released by the national bureau of statistics.

Analysts predict a micro percentage growth in the third quarter and a single digit growth in the final quarter of the year.
