Or listen on:
Khama, Obasanjo, Kemi Badenoch, Zeinab Badawi, Hopewell Chin'Ono - just some of the people who made us smile in 2024.
In this special year ender, as we round off Season 3 of Africa Here and NOW, we look back at some of the lighter moments of 2024
The former Nigerian Super Eagle, footballer EFAN EKOKU, made us laugh with his cheeky bet on the winning team in the Africa Cup of Nations.
Then Ghanaian football pundit, GARY AL SMITH, encouraged DONU into revealing what REALLY lies behind behind the infamous rivalry between Nigeria and South Africa. It's about more than just football!
Former Nigerian president, OLUSEGUN OBASANJO, explained the closeness of ties between Niger and Nigeria in an intriguing way. He was speaking exclusively to Africa Here and Now when the west African bloc, ECOWAS, was threatening military action against the junta who'd carried out a coup.
Political analyst, MOELETSI MBEKI, younger brother to the former South African president THABO Mbeki, gave us a rare glimpse into Mbeki family life.
ZEINAB BADAWI talked about her new book, An African History of Africa, and also told us a little bit more about herself - something that most of us didn't know.
We asked about AI and how it was being received by the people of Malawi, especially as they'd been so hesitant to embrace the double decker bus!
We found out about a new craze sweeping Somalia: naming children Istanbul, after the Turkish city. It's apparently in recognition of Turkey's support for Somali through thick and thin.
The Zambian Anglican Bishop TREVOR MWAMBA, bemoaned the state of our humanity and compassion in 2024 and suggested that if Jesus were a refugee at the time of the former UK Conservative government, he'd have put on a plane to Rwanda.
KEMI BADENOCH, who became the first black woman to lead a British political party - the Tories - created a lot of buzz particularly among her fellow Nigerians who were dismayed by her negative portrayal of Nigeria. DONU offered her some advice, from one Nigerian woman to another.
Botswana's election yielded a seismic result with the ruling party voted out in a landslide. It presented us with a golden opportunity to talk to former president IAN KHAMA about his country's political shift, his plans for the future…and his dance moves.
PATRICK and DONU rounded off this episode in characteristic form!
