Most exclusively tied top 30 · ties that pass the test on the right, most exclusive first
The names that appear with Bola Tinubu in a large share of their own coverage: this name's own company. Exclusivity runs from 0, two names that meet no more than chance would have them, to 1, two names that only ever appear together. A name that is in everything, a president, is exclusive to no one, so the big names fall away here and the names that belong to this one stay. Only ties that pass the strength test count, so a pair seen twice is not a tie. Places are context and have no page.

Most strongly tied the ties chance explains least
How sure the record is that two names appear together for a reason. Strength is a standard statistical test (log-likelihood): above 10.8, chance would produce the pairing less than once in a thousand times. It grows with the number of articles, so the biggest names come first here; the list on the left is where this name's own company shows.
