    12 Fighting Weaponized Poverty

    GOVERNMENTAL, COMMUNAL, AND INDIVIDUAL APPROACH Today’s episode is about fighting weaponized poverty. Someone once said that when you fight corruption, it fights back. The same goes for fighting weaponized poverty. In Nigeria, there are people who benefit greatly from poverty, and they will fight to their last breath to keep the status quo. Listen in for more….

    10 Socioeconomic Stagnation

    Today, let’s discuss socio-economic stagnation. This is what comes inevitably if the ruling class continues to weaponize poverty. When I was younger, my mother used to warn us against associating with the bad gangs in society. These bad elements are called “egbe kegbe” in the Yoruba language. Listen in for more….

    10 Fallouts

    OTHER IMPACTS Today, let’s talk about some of the fallouts from weaponized poverty. We’ve already established that the elite can create oppressor apologists by inducing scarcity, giving out handouts, and establishing economic dependency. These created blind loyalists are often quick to make ad-hominem attack against anyone who challenges their favorite oppressor. Listen in for more….

    09 Stockholm Syndrome

    PRAY FOR THE NATION Today’s topic takes a look at Stockholm Syndrome as an instrument of weaponized poverty. So what is Stockholm Syndrome? According to Healthline, Stockholm Syndrome is a psychological response that causes survivors of abuse to sympathize with their abusers. How then can this be a weapon of poverty? Well, let’s start with the masking of rights as favors.

    08 The People

    I BETTER PASS MY NEIGHBOR This episode explores some of the ways that we as a people, are complicit in the weaponization of poverty. Let’s begin with bribery and corruption. Nigerians naturally like to get ahead. Of course we do. We are a nation of brilliant minds. We also have a reputation of being generous. We tend to tip when someone helps us get ahead. You see this at airports, hospitals, or even at the passport office. Over time, we begin to create a sense of expectation and entitlement to the recipients of these gifts and tips.

    07 Distractions

    FORGET YOUR SORROWS This topic focuses on the use of distractions by the ruling class to shift attention away from weapons of poverty. Distractions are also used to pacify an agitated citizenry and to prevent protests and uprisings. Many modern and ancient civilizations use distractions to maintain the status quo, and to keep their ruling class in power. Listen in for more….

    06 Gentrification

    Today’s topic focuses on gentrification as a weapon of poverty. I grew up in a community that had little to no road network, and a lack of clean water. Sadly, when the ruling class eventually brought development to poor communities like mine, it came in the form of gentrification. Investopedia defines gentrification as the transformation of a community from low value to high value, often leading to the displacement of its previous occupants. The key word here being “displacement.” Listen in for more….

    05 Money

    Today’s topic is on the use of money as a weapon of poverty. In 2024, Nigeria and most of the world faced some of the worst inflation in history. Therefore, mandatory monetary policies are being implemented to curb said inflation. But how helpful are some of these monetary policies? Many will argue that some of these policies cause more economic harm to the working class than good. Lets look at currency devaluation. Listen in for more….
