Henry talks with Dr. Jimam Lar, researcher on peace and security and Lecturer in History at the University of Jos in Nigeria. They delve into academic life under COVID; the complexities of security provision in contemporary Africa; plausible similarities between Nigerian vigilantes and Batman; the need for African scholars to study Hegel, and to contribute theses and syntheses as well as antitheses; the political and institutional problems of Nigerian academia; and the relationship between 'Western' knowledge and African scholarship.
