"Conflict always leaves people transformed." - Gbope Onigbanjo
In this episode, I speak with Gbope Onigbanjo, a researcher and consultant working in the fields of international affairs, peace studies, and political economy with a geographical focus on Africa. Our conversation centred around Nigeria’s role as Big Brother in West Africa and how that has bred skepticism among other states in the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS). This is a unique episode in this project in that it zooms out a bit from the individual and communities of individuals to look at Nigeria’s relationship with its mates: other countries in West Africa. 🍲 01:32 Exploring Liberal Peace-Keeping 03:50 ‘Healing’ as Peace and Security 05:59 Understanding Peace in African Contexts 12:25 ECOWAS and Nigeria 23:18 Elite-based/State Peace vs Local Peace 27:30 Russian flag in Kano? 🍲 Website: sweetmedicine.me Newsletter: studiostyles.substack.com.
