Is The Guardian Nigeria left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?

Crosswire lists The Guardian Nigeria as Center within Nigeria's media spectrum — the grouping it uses both for genuinely centrist titles and for outlets the major media-bias assessments do not place consistently on one side.

Read The Guardian Nigeria beside another title from Nigeria and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Two dailies from Nigeria covering the same day will usually agree on the facts and differ on the ordering: which story is worth the top of the page, how the headline characterises it, and which follow-ups get space. Those are The Guardian Nigeria's editorial choices, and they are easiest to see side by side. Because The Guardian Nigeria is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning title from Nigeria either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
