The 77 Percent - The Magazine for Africa's Youth

In this week's show, we explore the issue of 'Japa' or migration. We meet young Nigerians who are leaving the country for a better life abroad. We go to Ghana, Kenya and Uganda to find out what is driving young Africans out of their countries. In our Street Debate, we hear from Nigerian youths who are ‘japa-ing’.
