TL;DR Summary

Nigeria's new President Bola Tinubu has vowed to reset the country's ailing economy by expanding it by at least 6% annually, lifting barriers to investment, creating jobs, and unifying the exchange rate. Tinubu also promised to tackle rampant insecurity and reform the security services. He inherits an economy riddled with huge debt from his predecessor Buhari, whose protectionist policies spooked investors. Tinubu's electoral victory is being challenged in court by his main rivals, who see him as a member of the old guard.
