48. The Internet is the Opium

This news round up episode revisits Nigerian online conservatism, running through recent responses to the early executive orders of Trump 2.0. We also discuss Kemi Badenoch's constant reference to Nigeria and the chances that she is being a wily tactician. Does her commentary do anything for her polling numbers? Is there anything to read into in the notoriety she gains from Nigerians online who contribute to her trending? Is this nothing more than an anti-immigration tease?

We also examine "vawulence" online as a phenomenon and the factors that might contribute to Nigerians having the reputation for being vindictive on social media. Do Nigerians have too much time on their hands? Is the comparative price of data a contributor? Why does every aspiring celebrity employ the tacky strategy of engaging/rousing Nigerians on social media? Is social media simply an outlet for something deeper in our culture? Stick around and find out what we think?
