After a brief one-week hiatus, the 4th Republic Podcast returns with a look at the last 2019 presidential election. Unlike Goodluck Jonathan, who
failed to win his presidential re-election bid as an incumbent leader, President Buhari sought and got a second term. Whereas the People’s Democratic Party’s (PDP) Atiku Abubakar finally earned the ticket of the party he had pursued a large part of his political career.
