In Part 2 of a 2 part conversation with Ram Hadji, a brand strategist, a CEO & TEDx speaker, we talk the state of the global community.

March 06, 2021 UGANDA (Part 1) | Politics with Ram Hadji | Are we asking the right questions?
In Part 1 of a 2 part conversation with Ram Hadji, a brand strategist, a CEO & TEDx speaker, we question the state of leadership and we are being challenged to ask the 'right' questions; not just about Uganda but about the people of the continent. The elections in Uganda left us, the rest of the world, with so many questions, they left us wondering about the humanity that we claim to be fighting for; an internet shutdown on a normal day would never be ideal, what more during the international crisis we are facing?
