WOYM Ep 15: Leadership Voids and The Culture of Violence

NEW EPISODE OUT!!!

From Nigeria to the UK and the US, there seems to be a total dearth of courageous, morally upright leadership. Ekene asks: Where are the "servant leaders"? 

Have we reached a point where leadership is only about holding onto power for power's sake?

As we move closer home, Ayisha addresses the tragic killing of Oghenemine Ogidi by police in Delta State. 

We explore the "culture of violence" that permeates policing not just in Nigeria, but across the globe, and ask the difficult question: Why are some humans seemingly immune to the most basic universal values?
