  • How to Survive A Nigerian Election

    How to Survive A Nigerian Election
    Dec 2 2024
    On June 12th of 1993 Moshood Kashimawo Olawale Abiola, aka M.K.O, won what was recorded as the fairest presidential election in Nigeria’s history. 30 years later in February of 2023, host Deji Osikoya, along with Nigerians across the world, witnessed one of the more compromised democratic presidential elections in the country's history. Joined by writer, media entrepreneur and analyst, Lanre Idowu, the two comb through archives in search of the hope we lost three decades ago.

  • Do You Believe in Juju?

    Do You Believe in Juju?
    Nov 13 2024

    A crisp 500 naira note on the floor could either mean free money or a new life as a goat. On this episode, host Olamide challenges our superstitions to a face-off with facts. Juju is the colloquial catch-all for the occult but also a synonym for indigenous spirituality.


    Joined by writer and author of the Afrireligions blog Martha Laraba Sambe, the two crawl through our criminal underbelly, traverse colonial canyons, and climb the fiery mountains of the Pentecost to demystify juju’s reputation as an African villain origin story. Listen as they re-tell our lore without the gaze of the wild wild West.
