  • #14 -- It’s Not Just About Mrs. Buhari’s Dubai Birthday

    "Those in or near Nigeria’s centers of power often seem bent on provoking hapless Nigerians with acts of mindlessness.

    One such outrage came with a recent viral video. In it, members of the Nigeria Governors’ Wives Forum were in Dubai serenading Aisha Buhari, wife of President Muhammadu Buhari, on her 51st birthday. Some might say, what’s wrong with a contingent of Nigerian governors’ wives eating cake and making merry with Mrs. Buhari in a foreign country?"

  • #13 -- If Not Tinubu, Who?

    In last week's podcast, we discussed why a set of would-be presidential candidates disavow their desire to seek Nigeria’s highest political office in 2023. We mentioned former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and former Governors Bola Tinubu, Orji Uzor Kalu and Rochas Okorocha as exemplars of the species of politicians who should abandon their presidential aspirations. Or face electoral humiliation should they decide to run.

    Since we had specified the kind of candidates who should get out of the way or face rejection, some readers demanded that we name those we wish to see in the presidential race. That question deserves a thoughtful address In this first part.

  • #12 -- Tinubu Et Al.: Please Don’t Run!

    A bunch of self-aggrandizing politicians are lining up to jostle for Nigeria’s highest office, the presidency. Among them: former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, and former Governor Ahmed Bola Tinubu, Rochas Okorocha, and Orji Uzor Kalu. On paper, these men – and several others of their ilk – are formidable candidates, even frontrunners. Yet, on deeper reflection, each of these men’s most notable credential is a certifiable record of mediocrity in governance.
