On this episode, Dubamo Aginighan, a Husband, Writer & co-hosts of Du Barman's Barbecue, sits with me to discuss what deconstructing religion looks like. If you've ever wondered what it means to 'deconstruct Christainity' this is your best starting point. We talked about how our idea of God can be different from what God really is, and how changing the way we see God, can change the way we love, relate with people and ultimately serve God. Just like our #WomenInTech Series, the #WildlyDeconstructing series, will feature a guest and spotlight any of these core topics in each conversation. We are holding nothing back as we break the boundaries in these topics, we can take them as hot as you can give them to us.

    P. S: This episode was recorded on the 12th of October, as at which all information stated here were accurate. We are uncertain how the next few days may turn out and as such, we do not bear the risk of misinformation if subsequent changes are made in the future. What started out as a social media hashtag has grown into a national outcry by millions of Nigerians calling for the end of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad. Over the past days we have seen how Nigerian youths have pushed for not just the dissolution of SARS, but the end of Police Brutality. I sat with a friend, Richard Samson, to talk about everything on the movement, from our own personal experiences with SARS to the alleged end, the new SWAT team, and the stifling of tech companies in support of the movement. By sharing our personal experiences, we hope it has been proven that ANYONE can be a victim of this insane harassment. Kindly listen and share on all platforms. Remember, your voice matters, and the movement matters.
