A year ago, Bola Tinubu assumed office as the fifth president of Nigeria following the country’s return to democracy in 1999.

Results have been slow to materialise: inflation is soaring, investors are hesitant and security incidents are on the rise.

Will his administration be able to turn ambitious rhetoric into concrete results?
