Dementia Is Rising Fast in Nigeria | Can Dementia Start in Your 30s? | Dr. Chi Udeh-Momoh

Dementia is no longer a "Western" disease — it's rising fast across Nigeria and Africa, and most families, health workers, and even governments aren't ready. On this episode of Volume with FemiDlive, Femi D. Amele sits down with Dr. Chi Udeh-Momoh, transnational neuroscientist and Chief Investigator of the Africa FINGERS program, to break down what's really happening to brain health in Nigeria — and what can be done about it.Dr. Udeh-Momoh is faculty at Wake Forest University and USC, and leads the Ubuntu Brain Health Alliance at Aga Khan University (Kenya & Pakistan). In this conversation, she explains why dementia is not a normal part of aging, why cases are projected to rise sharply across Africa by 2050, and why up to 65% of dementia risk in African settings may actually be preventable.We talk about:✅ Why Nigerian doctors and families often dismiss dementia as "just old age"✅ The stigma keeping families from seeking help✅ Why Western diagnostic tools don't work for African realities✅ New blood-test breakthroughs making early detection more accessible✅ Africa FINGERS — the continent's first large-scale dementia prevention program (Nigeria & Kenya)✅ Why financial stress, poverty, and spirituality are now part of dementia prevention design✅ What the Nigerian and Kenyan governments are (and aren't) doing✅ The push for a National Dementia Action Plan for Nigeria✅ Can dementia risk start in your 30s and 40s because of lifestyle, energy drinks, and stress?✅ Why African-led research — not imported solutions — is the way forward00:00

Why Nigerians are Skipping Elections | Amara Nwankpa | Volume with FemiDlive

Why do elections in Nigeria suffer from chronically low voter turnout? Volume with FemiDlive, host Femi sits down with Mr. Amara Nwankpa, Director at the Yar'Adua Foundation, to dissect the deep-seated disconnect between the Nigerian state and its citizens. Amara breaks down the critical differences between "pragmatic legitimacy" (driven by short-term incentives like vote-buying) and "moral legitimacy" (rooted in a true sense of national belonging). From the sociology of why citizens ignore pedestrian bridges to the structural flaws holding back the July 2024 Supreme Court local government autonomy ruling, this conversation exposes the unfinished work of building a truly federated Nigeria. 00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo] - Introduction: Welcoming Amara Nwankpa (Yar'Adua Foundation)01:05 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=65s] - The Diversified Reality vs. Homogeneous Results in Nigerian Elections02:26 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=146s] - Low Voter Turnout: Does True Legitimacy Exist at Under 40%?03:43 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=223s] - Pragmatic vs. Moral Legitimacy: The Cycle of Vote-Buying05:59 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=359s] - Peter Ekeh’s "Two Publics" & the Extractive Nature of the Civic Public08:18 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=498s] - Voting as Social Labor: Why Citizens Withhold Their Labor09:32 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=572s] - Performance Theatrics in Nigerian Political Campaigns11:13 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=673s] - People as Infrastructure: Why Human-Centered Design Matters for Development16:05 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=965s] - Two Years of Local Government Autonomy: Reality or Elusive Law?19:13 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=1153s] - Grassroots Plural Governance: How Communities Actually Self-Govern21:37 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=1297s] - Why Nigerians Trust Traditional & Religious Leaders More Than Government23:14 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=1394s] - Overestimating State Reach: The Reality of Ungoverned Spaces & Insecurity27:48 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=1668s] - Building a Federating Infrastructure Based on Local Realities29:45 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=1785s] - The $26 Billion Informal Economy & Unlocking Citizen Cohesion33:52 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=2032s] - The Myth of the National Social Contract & The Shared Debt Burden39:14 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=2354s] - From "Big Brother" to "Old Brother": Reconfiguring Nigeria’s African Foreign Policy44:46 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=2686s] - The Hobbesian Leviathan: Global Political Instability From the UK to the US49:33 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=2973s] - Agenda 2063: Creating a Unified Pan-African Identity50:46 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gi9qTqHoxoo&t=3046s] - Outro: Where to Find Amara Nwankpa’s Work & Final Thoughts📌 Subscribe to the channel for more deep-seated political analysis and civic insights.💬 Let us know in the comments: Do you trust traditional and religious leaders more than the formal government? #NigeriaPolitics [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/nigeriapolitics] #VoterTurnout [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/voterturnout] #LocalGovernmentAutonomy [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/localgovernmentautonomy] #AmaraNwankpa [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/amaranwankpa] #GoodGovernance [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/goodgovernance] #NigeriaElections [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/nigeriaelections] #CivicSpace [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/civicspace] #VolumeWithFemiDlive [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/volumewithfemidlive]Join us: +234 814 046 0182WhatsApp Channel: https://bit.ly/4hdduoc [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa3hkbmtjbGUxUnJ5Q212TVUtcVpGSjlXVGJ3QXxBQ3Jtc0trSnZIQl9jcUVUSUNrY1dBUHRDdjh0RHdaTnl2NWJFOWNodlpBM0RoNWh2X2cyM2xJZEdad3oxMDNIcndOaFJ5anlERDhHYzBxVV85QS01eThmaENzZ09ObG1CZGZzV2tCZHVqVmhKaEJ5WWRfS1pLSQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2F4hdduoc&v=Gi9qTqHoxoo]Host: Femi D Amele @femidlive Associate Producer: Michael O.
