Non-oil growth averaged 9 percent from 2004 to 2008. The pace of economic activity has nevertheless slowed in 2009. Executive Directors have welcomed the authorities' commitment to a strong macroeconomic and financial policy framework that can support an early recovery and lay the basis for the successful implementation of Nigeria's Vision 2020 development plan.
