25. Subsidy removal and popular resistance pt. 1
Manage episode 444865839 series 3607512
We review the state of debate about the removal of Nigeria's fuel subsidy. Our own debate quickly turns to examining whether the Tinubu administration's sudden 'Subsidy ti lo' approach to announcing the subsidy removal on his inauguration day was either a 'gaffe' or an effective ploy to impose austerity and enrich the ruling-class while demobilizing popular forces -- i.e. 'shock therapy'.
This episode is the first of a two part series. The second part is an interview with a scholar of Nigerian labour unions who will talk us through the rise and fall of popular opposition towards subsidy removal.
Enjoy and stay tuned.
