Summary

On this episode we chat with Africa Practice Head, Amaka Anku on the upcoming Nigerian elections on February 16. The two candidates vying for the nations top office are incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari and opposition candidate Atiku Abubakar. We think Buhari remains favored to win (a 60% probability), but there’s not a lot separating the candidates and that’s led to little excitement in the lead up. Beyond the election, we discuss the outlook for the economy, security and stability given Buhari’s continuing health concerns that have plagued him throughout his first term. One story that continues to track positively is infrastructure with the government committed to continuing its investment in oil, transportation and power generation sectors. We look ahead to the 5-10 year outlook briefly for the country and close with a quick segment on the next generation of leadership bubbling up through the ranks.
