After a health break, we return in this episode to consider the Nigerian president's report card halfway through his term. Is he the bold liberalising force Nigeria, nay Africa, has been waiting for?
What can be said of the achievements and limitations of Tinubu’s domestic and foreign policy direction, two years into his tenure?
We discuss his efforts in comparison to his predecessor and in the context of Nigeria’s 40 year romance with neoliberalism.
The conversation also considers BAT’s foreign policy achievements and mishaps, especially in respect to the emergence of AES, his stance at the head of ECOWAS and his relationships with Washington and Paris. We also examine the possible oppositions to his re-election and the possibility of the rise of a popular mass movement against another tenure. Why isn't Tinubu easier to oppose? How much more neoliberal can we get? Who will survive in these Tinubu times? Listen and find out what we think.
