Correct Answer: has had


Solution : The second option is correct.

  • The sentence is in the present perfect tense, which uses the auxiliary verb has or have and the past participle V3 form of the main verb.
  • Structure: Subject + has/have + V3 + Object
  • Nigeria is a singular subject, so it needs the singular form of the verb "has".
  • The phrase " in place since 2015 " indicates a duration of time that started in the past and continues to the present.
