APC party's new presidential candidate Bola Tinubu shakes hands with Nigeria's President Muhammadu Buhari., promising pro-business policies to revamp Africa’s largest economy by fixing its oil sector and curbing widespread security threats.

Abubakar previously ran on a commitment to privatise the state-owned oil firm and establish a fund to stimulate private infrastructure investment. For his part, Tinubu is vowing to boost manufacturing to reduce Nigeria’s dependence on imports, build a deep sea port in the south and increase gas and oil exploration in the continent’s top crude producer.

Under Buhari, the central bank has come up with a priority list of imports to curb dollar outflows and imposed exchange controls, which Tinubu and Abubakar want to do away with.
