Nigeria: After the Election
Market Commentary
25 March 2015
Barring any last minute surprises, Nigerians will go to the polls on Saturday 28 March to elect a new
president. While the choice of president matters to Nigeria’s outlook, the greater significance of the
election is that the government will finally find room to get on with a much needed adjustment to last
year’s decline in oil prices. We expect this adjustment to occur whoever wins.
