CN2: #EndSARS and the quest for a new era

Every other week, we bring in a panel of young Nigerians to talk about trending topics. We will cover a wide range of topics, from religion to relationships, politics, economics, science and technology, or whatever pressing issue demands our attention.

In this episode, we talk about the #EndSARS movement which began as a conversation on social media and blossomed into widespread protests in major cities of Nigeria. We analyze its formation, organization and how the dynamics of politics in Nigeria might have forever been altered.
