ABUJA, Aug 26 (Reuters) - Nigeria expects the third and
fourth quarters to reflect the continued effects of a slowdown,
after the economy contracted by 6.1% in the second quarter, the
presidency said on Wednesday.
Nigeria, Africa's largest economy and top oil producer,
faces its worst crisis in four decades due to low crude prices,
and the impact of the novel coronavirus pandemic, which hurt
demand for its main export commodity.
