In this thought-provoking episode, we discuss how the recent passing of former President Muhammadu Buhari has not only stirred the political landscape but also intensified conversations around leadership, governance, and the true meaning of democracy in the country. As political parties grapple with internal power struggles and citizens grow increasingly disillusioned, questions about the viability of meaningful change from within or outside the system become more urgent.
Joining us is Aisha Yesufu, a Nigerian activist, entrepreneur, and co-founder of the #BringBackOurGirls movement. She is widely recognised for her fearless advocacy during the #EndSARS protests, becoming a symbol of resistance against police brutality. Aisha remains a prominent voice for justice, transparency, and inclusive governance in Nigeria.
We explore:
Whether Nigeria’s democracy is working for its people or only for those in power
The role of coalition politics and emerging parties in breaking the status quo
How citizens can reclaim power in a system rigged against them
Why activism and political engagement must go hand in hand
This episode is a clarion call for all who believe in the promise of democracy and the power of the people to shape their nation's future.
Listen now and join the conversation on the future of Nigerian democracy.
