The Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning, ZAINAB AHMED, says Nigeria did not benefit from the recent debt relief by the International Monetary Fund because the country is not indebted to the IMF.

AHMED, in a tweet today clarified that since Nigeria is not indebted to the IMF; there is no outstanding debt obligation to be forgiven.

She added that Nigeria’s application for a new IMF financing under the Rapid Financing Initiative is under consideration and receiving attention.
