WOYM Ep 2: Migration and Global Student Protests

We have two topical issues on this episode - Migration and Global Student Protests. 1) Are we all Immigrants, Occupants or Settlers? 2) What happened to the idealism and passion of Nigerian Students? Ekene Ezeji and Ayisha Osori tackle these hydra-headed topics that plague Nigeria, Africa and the global community. The politics of migration is not just abroad, it is also at home in Nigeria. Similarly, the idealism and passion usually exhibited by students and young people always seems to get hijacked but that should not stop others from trying; we can’t give up! How many of us are being hypocritical - happy to become nationals of other countries but resistant to someone from Maiduguri claiming Lagos or someone from Awka being from Port Harcourt?  Why does identity matter so much? Are ‘states’ naturally exclusionary?  What can we do to support young activists and student revolutionaries? Are we all playing a part to influence the emergence of a fairer, safer future?   Listen, reflect, and maybe your resolution may start from within today.   Resources: https://www.theideasletter.org/essay/a-modern-counterrevolution/ https://punchng.com/strike-nans-gives-asuu-fg-seven-days-to-resolve-dispute/
