Nigeria Decides - But What Does the Future Hold?

BBC Africa Debate

Available for over a year

Recorded in Lagos, this debate explores the nature of democracy in Africa’s most populous nation, ahead of key elections. Can Nigeria hold free and fair elections, amidst concerns about preparedness and insecurity? What role will religious and ethnic division play? And after the dust has settled, what does the future hold for Africa's most populous nation – which some argue is too large and divided to be a single country at all. Presented by Will Ross and Nkem Ifejika. (Photo: An official of the Independent Electoral Commission gives his Permanent Voter's Card to a man in Lagos. Credit: Getty Images)
