Скачать или смотреть Nigeria in Crisis, Tinubu On Europe Trip | Firstpost Africa | N18G

President Bola Tinubu is facing a wave of domestic backlash as he rang in 2026 with a European vacation followed by a summit in Abu Dhabi, while Nigeria grapples with severe economic and security turmoil. The timing of the trip has been labeled “insensitive” by opposition leaders. It also coincided with the implementation of new tax reforms. These new laws, which include a significant Value-Added Tax (VAT) hike from 7.5% to 12.5%, have sparked fears of deepening poverty among the country’s 200 million citizens. Beyond the economic strain, Nigeria remains under the shadow of a persistent security crisis. As Islamic State terrorists and armed groups continue to spread terror, questions are mounting over the efficacy of recent US military operations in the region.
