Marcelino Nunes – African News Contributor

His stories appear on Patio Pulse, a daily portal that curates news from across the African continent, a platform that strives to keep readers updated on politics, economics and culture.

Why Marcelino Nunes matters for readers
Marcelino Nunes covers topics that matter to everyday people – from the latest fiscal policies in Nigeria, West Africa’s most populous economy to the excitement of youth football tournaments in the continent. His reporting shows how a change in Nigeria’s exchange rate can affect street vendors, or how a new sports league can create jobs for local coaches. In each story he connects the dots: economic data influences political decisions, which in turn shape cultural trends. That chain of cause and effect is the backbone of his articles, and it helps readers understand why a policy shift in Abuja matters to a farmer in Kano or a fan in Lagos.
Beyond the numbers, Marcelino Nunes highlights the human side of African news. He follows a young rugby player chasing a World Cup dream, profiles a tech entrepreneur disrupting the LPG market, and captures the buzz around new streaming deals for women's rugby. By blending sport, business and social issues, he creates a well‑rounded picture of the continent’s dynamism. Readers get a mix of quick updates – like a 1‑1 draw that keeps Nigeria’s Flying Eagles in the U‑20 World Cup – and deeper analyses, such as the impact of Central Bank of Nigeria’s monetary policy on the naira’s strength. This variety makes his feed a one‑stop shop for anyone who wants both headlines and context.
