The outcome of party presidential primaries appears to signal the end of post-military elite political consensus. 

Transparency International (TI) has issued its Corruption Perceptions Index. As in previous years, its citizens and a selection of international organizations perceive Nigeria as one of Africa’s most corrupt countries. Nigeria’s ranking—146 out of 180 countries surveyed worldwide—is little changed from years past.

For Nigeria’s serial presidential candidate, familiarity is both strength and disadvantage.

Aare Ona Kakanfo of Yorubaland Gani Adams, in a speech at a book launch in Lagos on April 14 said that the Yoruba people have "graduated from restructuring to self-determination." He continued by saying that Nigeria is dominated by a "main powerful bloc."

At a moment of deep generational fracture, the political opposition would seem to be the least of Bola Tinubu’s problems.
