The correct answer is “defied”. 

It means resisted or made impossible. The sentence shows that Nigeria’s economic problems cannot be solved immediately, so “defied” fits.
Other options don’t make sense:
defined means to explain (wrong meaning)
rejected means refused (illogical)
rewarded means gave benefit 
retained means kept
