Podcast - Mistakes of Our parents generation to us

Image

Podcast - Sọ̀rọ̀ Sóke Generation

Image
 Sọ̀rọ̀ Sóke is a Yoruba phrase which means "Speak Up." Over the course of 2 weeks now, Nigerian youths have taken to the streets to protest against the blatant injustice that the SARS unit of the police force have caused the citizens.  The President is yet to fully address the country, neither has he met with the demands stipulated by the protesters. And so, it continues amidst the hijacking of the movement instigated by some saboteurs among other things. However, the youths are unrelenting. This protest is much more than just SARS. It's the accumulation of pent up anger and frustration against the Nigerian government. And it will only continue from here on... Listen to this episode here   #ENDSARS #ENDSWAT

Podcast - SARS/Police Brutality 1

Image
 Today's episode is hotter!!! And Deals with the recent trend with SARS AND THEIR BRUTALITY. Nigeria society is gradually becoming another America with the brutality of the SARS It's a menace that has risen to a deplorable state and is still spiralling down to that place. It's unfortunate that the government has done nothing to address this, neither are they particularly interested in curbing this. There have been agitations by the citizenry, more so in recent times. Added with celebrities who are for the cause and those being cowards (coughs). But what happens when the citizens realise that there is a clause that actually permits police brutality in the Nigeria law. Join me and Charles as we dissect this topic completely. Enjoy

Podcast - Dealing with Despair

Image
Between last week and this week, it was like I was on a dry spell. I had the biggest feeling of despair, so much so that I had to forgo the topic I intended to address this week to just vent.  Being stuck at home has its pros as much as it has the cons. More so because, there is no stability in the country and so many of us fall into despair. My experience revealed a couple of nuggets on life and that's what I addressed in this podcast .  The feeling of helplessness and uncertainty I felt is incomparable. I was unmotivated to do anything - read, write even watch movies. Social media didn't even cut it for me, I wasn't feeling any vibe online. The essays I had intended to complete by the end of the month, I abandoned them all (4 of them). I lost my appetite for food a couple of times. Simply put, I was on a standstill. I don't exactly know what changed in particular but on Saturday, I was so much on a low that I legit ran to YouTube to watch yoga meditation videos for re...

Podcast: Double Standards of Leaked Videos

Image
  I launched my podcast a week ago on anchor. Discussions on relevant social issues is something I've always wanted to do but I wasn't aware there existed a platform like anchor to aid that in the first place. This is where ignorance is never an excuse. Thankfully, it's not too late to start. And so, I am quite intentional about this 'ministry.' I like the possibilities that can unfold from my podcast. It's this way, "abi you want to talk? Use this platform and be talking naa. You mustn't be featured in a radio before you start your own online radio in this world of tech." In this episode, I looked at the double standards in the society as regards to leaked videos online. The case in reference is to the IMSU's lecturer whose video surfaced online awhile back. I'm still astonished with how the news quelled down immediately and that is one of the things I addressed in the podcast. Coupled with the reactions - very shocking reactions and comme...
