In this episode of Afronomics, we sit down with Desirée Anyasodo, co-founder of the Lady Adaure Outreach Foundation, for a powerful conversation about public health in Africa and the diaspora. Desirée shares how her foundation became a trusted source of healthcare in rural Nigeria, offering free exams, prescription glasses, and vital health education. We dive deep into what the pandemic revealed about fragile healthcare systems, why misinformation spread so dangerously, and the rising rates of kidney disease, fibroids, and prostate issues among Black communities. Desirée also challenges us to take ownership of our health, reduce dependency on Western systems, and build grassroots solutions rooted in care and cultural understanding. Plus, in our Wahala segment, we debate which Afrobeats superstar has to go—Wizkid, Burna Boy, or Davido?
