The figure is 2.99% above June 2024 levels, when PMI was 50.1 — confirming year-on-year improvement.
The June dip reflects subdued demand and persistent inflation, echoing broader market sentiments.
A PMI above 50 signals expansion; Nigeria’s figure signals ongoing growth, though losing speed.

Tesla remains the EV manufacturer with the highest revenue, generating approximately $19 billion in Q1 2025.
Among companies that exclusively produce EVs, Tesla was the only one to report a year-over-year revenue decline between Q1 2024 and Q1 2025.
Tesla's decline has been partially attributed to public backlash against CEO Elon Musk’s controversial political involvement.
VinFast not only achieved a 300% increase in vehicle deliveries but also recorded the highest revenue growth, up 149.81% year-over-year.
VinFast’s strong performance was largely driven by robust sales in Vietnam, its largest market.
Despite a 38.46% drop in EV deliveries, Rivian posted a 2.99% year-over-year revenue increase between Q1 2024 and Q1 2025.
Tesla, Rivian, and Lucid are U.S.-based EV manufacturers; NIO is Chinese, VinFast is Vietnamese, and Polestar is Swedish.

Egypt leads with $195.2 billion in cumulative FDI inflows as of 2024.
South Africa follows with $151.0 billion, and Nigeria is third with $110.7 billion.
Only these three countries have crossed the $100 billion mark over the 34-year span.
Morocco and Mozambique are neck-and-neck, with around $58–59 billion each.
Ghana and Ethiopia show strong mid-tier performances, both near or above $45 billion.
DR Congo, Algeria, and Congo round out the top 10 — all with over $30 billion in long-term FDI.

FDI inflows surged from just $0.01 billion in 1990 to a record $3.88 billion in 2019, marking a 388x increase over 30 years.
Between 2006 and 2019, Ghana consistently attracted over $1 billion annually, with nine of those years surpassing $3 billion.
The highest FDI year on record was 2019, likely reflecting peak investor confidence before the pandemic.
Since 2021, FDI has remained below $2 billion, with 2023 recording $1.31 billion and 2024 only slightly higher at $1.67 billion.
Ghana’s FDI trend reflects a pattern of post-2000 acceleration, plateauing around 2012–2015, then declining sharply post-2020.

Nigeria’s National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) usually releases Q1 GDP data 53 days after the quarter ends.

The delay coincides with a GDP rebasing exercise, updating the base year to 2019.
Q1 GDP reports have typically come out in May for the past eight years—until now.

Africa attracted $97 billion in FDI in 2024 — nearly double the 2023 level — marking a record year for the continent.

After 2015, remittance outflows sharply declined, stabilising below $100 million from 2018 onward.
Prior to 2015, outflows were consistently under $110 million annually, indicating a major anomaly in that spike year.
