Fighting the Godfathers

First, we head over to Kenya, where Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua faces impeachment over serious allegations, including self-enrichment and inciting ethnic hatred. Is a feud with President Ruto now out in the open? How will this reshape the future of leadership in the country? What will be the effect on the region?

Then, we come to Nigeria to discuss last weekend's local elections in Rivers state and the violent aftermath which has seen multiple fatalities and the burning of local government offices. The political landscape in that state is becoming increasingly turbulent. Given the problems between Governor Sim Fubara and his predecessor Nyesom Wike, what does all this mean for governance in the state?

Finally, the NNPC’s decision to end its exclusive purchase agreement with Dangote Refinery. This move opens the floodgates for marketers to negotiate directly with the refinery, setting the stage for changes in pricing and the potential end of subsidies. What does this mean for Nigerians?
