This week on the show we look at the outcome of Nigeria’s historic presidential election. On the 24 February, millions of Nigerians went to the polls in an election widely seen as crucial for the direction of the country, with the winner, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, declared the president elect. We look at the state of Nigeria’s democracy and ask what lies ahead? We’ll also be looking at events closer to home this week. On Monday, Rishi Sunak, and Ursula von der Leyen announced a new deal for Northern Ireland, with implications for all the UK. Three years after the UK formally left the EU, we look at whether Rishi Sunak has indeed finally gotten Brexit done. Joining Bronwen Maddox this week are Leena Koni Hoffman, an Associate Fellow with our Africa programme, Aanu Adeoye, the West African correspondent for the Financial Times, and Charles Grant, the Director for the Centre for European Reform.
