A contextual discussion of issues important to the ordinary citizen.

    Does Nigeria Have A People Problem, An Institutional Problem, or Both?

    Does Nigeria Have A People Problem, An Institutional Problem, or Both?

    Do we just have bad institutions that churn out the same kind of result, or we are just unfortunate to have terrible people at the helms of affairs?
    Chris Ogunmodede says it’s both and he even goes back decades to prove his case.
    He is a foreign affairs analyst and an African thinker. He has worked with and consulted for various private firms and countries around the world. These days, he is an editor at the World Politics Review where he publishes insightful newsletters about Africa and the world.
    We talked about systems and people in Afghanistan, the US, and of course in Nigeria, nay Africa.
