Nigeria country watch
Exposure to Nigeria means watching the Central Bank and the naira, fuel subsidy and forex rules, the ports of Lagos, Lekki and Onne, oil output and pipeline security in the Delta, power-grid collapses, and the banking, telecoms, cement, fintech and oil groups that shape West Africa's largest market. We read BusinessDay, Punch, Premium Times, The Guardian Nigeria and Nairametrics every morning.
