Productivity and the Impact of Commuting in Lagos

The podcast explores the challenges of commuting in Lagos, Nigeria, where the daily journey to work can take up to three hours due to traffic gridlocks. The traffic issue is not unique to Lagos and is also experienced in cities like Kampala and Nairobi.
