This episode of West Africa Now explored the leadership of President Bola Tinubu, focusing on his administration’s decision to remove fuel subsidies and its impact on Nigeria’s economy.
With rising inflation, a depreciating currency, and increasing fuel costs, many Nigerians, including former Vice President Atiku Abu-Bakr, have voiced strong criticism of Tinubu’s policies.
We discussed whether these economic difficulties are a result of mismanagement or necessary reforms, with insights from experts on energy, governance, and law.
The program also looked at the political implications of these criticisms and what lies ahead for Tinubu’s administration.
