Politicking with Ikemnomics – From Gaza to Garki

In this thought-provoking episode of The Square, we unpack the messy intersection of global politics, media influence, and national dysfunction — from the Middle East to Nigeria.

Our conversation begins with the complexities of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict: What does land annexation mean for the future of Israel? What role does the West play in shaping outcomes in the region? And how do nuclear weapons still shape the global power balance?

Then we bring it closer to home — tackling Nigeria’s ongoing security crisis, the leadership deficit, and why policy without accountability is just performance. We explore the structural flaws in Nigeria’s governance and challenge the next generation to imagine — and demand — a different future.


What to Expect:

  • Deep dives into global conflicts and their historical roots
    • How media narratives shape public opinion and political outcomes
    • A brutally honest look at Nigeria’s security, leadership, and policy gaps
    • A call for critical thinking, collective responsibility, and meaningful change

  • Whether you’re a policy nerd, global affairs junkie, or just trying to make sense of the chaos — this episode gives you context, clarity, and a challenge.
