Nigeria is Africa's richest country. According to international comparisons it is also one of the most corrupt. How will president elect Muhammadu Buhari tackle the blight that affects every level of society and the security of the whole region?

Can he tackle corruption in business, in education, public service and in the army? How does it affect the economy? And what is the impact on the government's attempts to tackle the instability and violence sown by Boko Haram in the north of the country?
