S/election seasons in Nigeria are synonymous with
war situations, a do-or-die affair. Barely six months to Nigeria’s defining 2019
general elections, governance and business activities are almost at a
standstill. Machiavellian intrigues, seismic political stunts, inter-party defections,
impeachment plots are now the new normal in Nigeria. The political wheeling and dealing playing out in Nigeria is having a butterfly-effect on the already fragile economy, volatile
political climate, security, geo-political risk, instability.
