With a population of around 220 million, and growing fast, Nigeria is the largest democracy in Africa. After decades of colonial and military rule, Nigeria’s democracy is still young, beginning in 1999.  Last month, Nigeria held its Presidential elections, and political veteran, 70-year-old Bolo Tinubu was declared the winner with 37-percent of the vote. However, opposition parties, as well as international election observers, have criticized the election, citing logistical problems, violence, and the slow publishing of results as problematic.  We speak with Ope Adetayo and Ambassador Mark Green about Nigeria’s elections, and the state of democracy in the country, and more broadly, in Africa.
