    "What is wrong with Africa?" The portrayal of Africa as a sick kid is a story as old as time. The development of the continent has been subject to many different theories, policy forums, aid packages, and family dinner discussions. I want to help you make sense of all the questions you may have. Maudo Jallow, who has just announced his new role as the Governance Associate at the Office of the Presidency of Gambia, sits down in an EXCLUSIVE podcast to discuss African development, Assassination of Revolutionary leaders and Allies in the political system. This is a great episode to understand the 'insider perspective' to what exactly it means to be a young person within the ivory tower of politics. Please Subscribe, Share and Leave a Review.
