Conspiracy theories are everywhere and in Nigeria we have our share of conspiracy theories. In today’s episode of The Backstory, we dissect the conspiracy theory and discover that our brains are wired to favor conspiracy theories. Conspiracy theories are comforting, they give us a sense of order, of control. And that’s exactly why they are dangerous.

This episode was produced by Alexandra Gekpe, Richard Anyebe, Nabilah Usman, Dominic Tabakaji, and Sam Tabakaji.

Executive producer Rahmat Muhammad.
