Thousands took to the streets in Nigerian cities in anti-government protests against the high cost of living in the country, driven by crippling inflation and a devalued currency.
The demonstration resulted in the Police using tear gas to disperse crowds in the apital, Abuja, and in the nation’s second largest city, Kano, and other cities.
Many Nigerians blame the cost-of-living crisis on reforms introduced last year by President Bola Tinubu, who canceled a popular fuel subsidy and took steps that devalued the naira.
Ene Obi speaks on the protests.


Message Passed - End Bad Governance Protests

In a bold push for transformative change, Nigerian youth are gearing up for a nationwide peaceful protest from August 1 to 10, 2024, demanding a more equitable society
with effective leadership, affordable food, zero hunger, and a reduced cost of living. 

The movement, undeterred by warnings and opposing views from certain political quarters, aims to bring attention to the pressing issues plaguing the nation.

However, the government of the day has been given reasons why the protest should not hold. On the other hand, these youth are insisting to hit the streets for a change.

Follow the discussion with Adenola Michael and Opatola Victor. 














Why the #ENDBADGOVERNANCE in Nigeria Protest Must Hold

Uganda is joining the streak of protests in Africa, following the unending demonstrations in Kenya.

My guests are Ruth Adong, a journalist and, most recently,

William Ruto Must Go! The Gen Z Revolution

All over Africa, protest movements are emerging. We have seen thousands of people taking to the streets of Kenya and other countries; they demonstrate, tweet and blog
for more democracy, self-determination and against authoritarian governments. 
In this series of the Gen Z revolution editions, the first part centres around the protests in Kenya, incidentally organized by young Kenyans who have forced the current President William Ruto to fire almost the entire cabinet.
My guest is Victor Otengo, a journalist in Kenya and currently the head of entertainment at Kenya&#39;s biggest digital media outlet TUKO.co.ke.
















The Gen Z Revolution - Kenyan Protests

This episode of the Discourse focuses on the unending security challenges in Nigeria. 

Authorities in Nigeria may be running out of time to secure the release of the hostages in northwestern Kaduna state, as the kidnapping gangs have vowed to kill the captives if their demands are not met.

My guests will tell us why the Army is finding it difficult to take out the bandits and their activities, which are gaining momentum.

Is the Nigerian Army overwhelmed?

This first part of the programme explores the legacy and life of the late Gambian pro-democracy activist Solo Sandeng, who recently was given a state funeral. Solo while alive called for the reform of the electoral system in the Gambia, during the then administration of former president Yahyah Jammeh.

In a major step forward in the practical implementation of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), the Economic Commission for Africa has launched an online trading platform that will facilitate trading between buyers and suppliers when the agreement starts next year.

Known as the African Trade Exchange (Atex), the business-to-business e-commerce platform will not only improve cross-border trade but also provide businesses with quality products from verified African suppliers in an efficient way at reduced average trading costs based on AfCFTA rules.
