Many studies on the impact of COVID-19 are often discussed in developed countries, stressing a gap in understanding how the pandemic impacts developing countries. This study focuses on the coronavirus called COVID-19 situation in Nigeria and its economic impact on the economy. The study also examines the structural causes that worsen the COVID-19 crisis in Nigeria. Our findings reveal that the economic downturn in Nigeria was triggered2 by a combination of declining oil prices and spillovers from the COVID-19 outbreak, which led to a fall in demand for oil products and social distancing, economic activities halted from taking place. The government retort to the crisis was to provide financial assistance to businesses and a few households affected by the coronavirus outburst. The Federal Government of Nigeria approved accommodative economic strategies by offering a targeted ₦3.5trillion loan as support to some sectors of the economy. However, these efforts did not prevent the economic crisis from occurring, as expected. The Managers of the economy and agents could not freely engage in economic activities to fear contacting the COVID-19 disease that was spreading fast at the time.
