Breaking barriers!!. Published March 8, 2024 by Paula Mulamula on Apple Podcasts.

Last week I was the guest, then my daughter had her own episode, and now it's my mom's turn to be featured. As soon as we finalize the details, she will return for another episode. Emelia Harry-Akponwei is the guest!

PS:

*In 1991 Ayangba was part of the area merged areas carved from Benue and Kwara states to form Kogi State. So, Emelia is correct when she refers to Ayangba as being in Benue state in 1980, it was a part of it back then.

*Kofi Busia's official title was Prime Minister, not President when he expelled Nigerians from Ghana.

Emelia Harry-Akponwei: reflects on history, healing, and humility while being a guest on her son's podcast for the first time.

"My kid was in the studio and got on the mic both before and after I finished recording. I'm still working on uploading the videos. Initially, I didn't hit record because we didn't expect the little one to delve so deep into the conversation. Therefore, only the content captured on the phone before a call interrupted the recording is available. This audio was recorded after the primary recording for the day had been completed. We then got down to the main business!"
