How To Lose A Match in 99 Goals

Fireballs, lion heads, and voodoo, these were the special ingredients chosen to make the greatest loss in our sporting history… allegedly. Once upon a time, a football match between India and Nigeria ended in a 99 - 0 loss for the Nigerian Green Eagles. On this episode, host Deji Osikoya takes us through a play-by-play of the mythical match. Joined by third generation Indian-Nigerian Hamisha Daryani Ahuja, director and producer of acclaimed cross-cultural Netflix features, ‘Namaste Wahala’ and ‘Postcards’, the two dig into how colonialism, commerce, and cinema have shaped our national friendship.

When Ghana Met Nigeria

From friends to enemies and finally to lovers, the story of Nigeria and Ghana’s rivalry is part classic rom-com and part Western showdown. On this episode Mayowa Idowu travels back in time with Culture Custodian writer Damilola Oyeleke and her uncle Justus Oyeleke to Ghana in 1969, days after over 2 million African migrants were forced out of the country. Years later, Mr Oyeleke watched how Ghanaian migration into Nigeria was followed by a mass expulsion that we would dub ‘Ghana must go’. Follow the trio as they trace how this love-hate story has spanned soccer showdowns, battle of the bands, and Jollof wars. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Joined by Anita Eboigbe, co-founder of Inside Nollywood, a newsletter that goes behind the scenes of Nigerian film, the two reminisce on the movies that made the industry.
