Di Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria, Olayemi Cardoso, don tok say di economic reform wey dem dey do for kontri don make Nigeria economy strong well-well to survive any wahala wey di war for Middle East fit cause.

Dis crisis fit make price of petrol and diesel go up, scatter di way wey goods dey move from one kontri to anoda, and make foreign investors fear put dia money for any place.
