Oil and Trainers
More Or Less asks if itβs true millions of barrels of Nigeriaβs oil are stolen daily, ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Trending reports on sex βconsent classesβ and the Why Factor asks why we like trainers?
More Or Less checks out a claim by Nigeriaβs President Muhammadu Buhari that a million barrels of the countryβs oil are stolen per day. Is he right? Ruth Alexander asks Peter Cunliffe-Jones of Africa Check. And, does 13% of the worldβs undiscovered oil lie in the Arctic?
ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Trending reports on controversy surrounding βconsent lessonsβ on offer in a number of British universities to tackle both rape and sexual assault. And we hear from the βMan who has it allβ, a Twitter account thatβs actually a scathing satire of the patronising lifestyle articles usually aimed at women. Also, one of the British Sikhs behind the #SikhLivesMatter hashtag β a response to recent violence in Punjab - explains what is motivating supporters.
And in the Why Factor, Mike Williams asks why trainers β or sneakers- have become such a popular fashion item far removed from their original purpose of health and fitness.
