TL;DR Summary

Nigeria's presidential election tribunal is set to decide on Wednesday whether Bola Tinubu should remain as president after two rivals challenged his victory in February's disputed vote. Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi have asked the court to invalidate the election, citing irregularities and the electoral body's failure to use electronic machines to upload polling station results. While most political observers expect the tribunal to uphold Tinubu's win, Atiku and Obi can still make a final appeal at the Supreme Court. Tinubu, who is currently in India, has defended his victory and is focused on reviving the economy, but faces opposition from labor unions and pressing issues inherited from his predecessor.
