Nigeria’s turbulent 2020

2020 was a year of significant challenge and change. Our Director of Research Eniola published several interesting articles on what was a turbulent year for Nigeria:

In July 2020 for The Guardian she wrote ‘In Nigeria, colonial thinking affects everyone. It is time we found new heroes’ where she argued that “It is not enough to reveal the lies and tear down the statues, though this we must. We have, also, to build things in their places.”

In October 2020 her article appeared on the #EndSARS movement appeared on the front page of the International edition of the New York Times ‘We Dared to Assemble. For That, We Were Killed’.
