In this episode of the Lagosian in New York City podcast, Lagosian is joined by Mr Damola Richards - a Nigerian based in the Washington DC metro area of the United States who left Nigeria many years ago after his undergraduate education was continually interrupted by multiple ASUU strikes. Mr Richards describes his experiences at home and why he chose not to complete his undergraduate degree in a Nigerian university (despite not being far from graduation), instead choosing to come to the United States to start afresh. Lagosian and his guest discuss the impact of ASUU strikes on Nigerian youth and compare the Nigerian vs. US tertiary education systems.
