President Tinubu
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the current President of Nigeria, having assumed office in May 2023. A prominent political figure, he previously served as the Governor of Lagos State from 1999 to 2007 and is a key member of the All Progressives Congress (APC). His administration has faced significant challenges, particularly in the oil sector, where policies aimed at deregulating fuel prices have led to a sharp increase in the cost of petrol, impacting the lives of millions of Nigerians. Tinubu's government is focused on reforms to enhance local refining capacities and reduce the country’s dependence on fuel imports.
