Sami Tunji's coverage focuses primarily on finance and economy within Nigeria. The majority of the articles are based on government announcements and cite data extensively. Given this, Sami would likely be interested in pitches that provide expert commentary or analysis related to economic policies, financial regulations, or government fiscal decisions in Nigeria.
As the focus is specifically national (Nigeria), any outreach should ensure that it directly relates to Nigerian economic matters. Pitches offering insights into the impact of specific government policies, fiscal trends, or financial indicators within Nigeria may be particularly well-received by Sami.
