    In this episode of Policy Without Politics (PWP), Chike Obi and Dr. Ken Ikpe take on one of Nigeria’s biggest development questions: Is Nigeria’s problem bad policy, poor implementation, or something deeper? From fuel subsidy removal to electricity pricing, health insurance, education, IMF advice, telecoms, exchange rates, and social safety nets, this conversation explores why many Nigerian policies look good on paper but fail to deliver lasting results for citizens. The hosts also examine whether policies are truly designed for the people they claim to serve, why implementation requires sacrifice from leaders, and what Nigeria can learn from other African countries that have sustained reforms across administrations. Subscribe to PWP for honest conversations on governance, public policy, development, and the real issues shaping Nigeria and Africa. #PolicyWithoutPolitics #PWP #DrKenIkpe #ChikeObi #NigeriaPolicy #Governance #PublicPolicy #NigeriaEconomy #FuelSubsidy #Development #AfricanPolitics #Leadership #Nigeria

    Introducing PWP: Why Good Policy Fails to Change Lives
    2026/06/25
    Every policy is made on paper, but it lands on people’s lives. Too often, the gap between grand promises and everyday reality is enormous. In this introductory episode of Policy Without Politics (PWP), Mustafa Chike Obi and Dr. Ken Ikpe launch a new conversation: why well-intentioned economic, development, and governance policies frequently fail to deliver, and what it really takes to bridge the distance between policy documents and the people they’re meant to serve. From defining what policy truly is...it’s not just government, it’s the rules that shape our daily lives, to exploring its impact on infrastructure, education, security, power, and economic opportunity, this episode sets the tone for honest, non-partisan analysis of the policies that affect every Nigerian and African. If you care about why government policies often don’t translate into better lives and how we can do better, this podcast is for you. Subscribe, share, and drop your thoughts in the comments. What policy issue should we tackle next?
