• factual reporting of political and economic events
• no consistent evaluative language toward the country
• mix of positive, negative, and neutral stories
• entity treated as a backdrop for various actors

The entity is the country Nigeria, not a specific person or institution. Coverage is broad and varied, including crime, politics, business, and warnings, without a unified stance toward the country itself. Some headlines imply challenges (e.g., attacks, flooding, abductions) but others show progress (e.g., refinery operations, appointments). No clear editorial stance toward the nation as a whole.

• reports Trump administration actions without evaluative adjectives
• includes both positive and negative coverage of US policies
• quotes US officials authoritatively but also reports criticism of US
• covers US-Nigeria relations with neutral framing

The outlet treats the US as a subject of factual reporting, neither consistently positive nor negative. Headlines include neutral policy announcements (1, 11), criticism of US actions (18), and positive cooperation (19, 21). The entity is the US as a country, not a single administration, so stance is mixed across headlines.

• factual reporting of Trump's actions and statements
• occasional negative framing via quotes from critics
• neutral attribution of threats and policy moves
• some headlines use Trump as source for positive outcomes

Headline 3 quotes a critic ('Trump is an idiot') which could imply negative stance, but the outlet itself does not adopt that language; headline 11 is positive toward Trump as welcoming envoy. Overall, the outlet reports Trump's actions and statements without consistent evaluative vocabulary, though selection includes both critical and neutral angles.

• Quotes Tinubu's statements without evaluative commentary
• Reports opposition criticism of Tinubu without endorsement
• Includes positive achievements (infrastructure, reforms) attributed to Tinubu
