Thread by @NaijaFlyingDr

Thread of my mircoeconomics lectures. Economics is usually taught from a Western perspective, so love using Nigerian examples.

Unfortunately, they are Msc level so most people won't be interested aside from a few of the economists/people interested in learning economics

Lecture 1 is an introduction to microeconomics; why do we do what we do? Why do people buy cars that they can't afford? Why do companies rent jets when their profits are squeezed?

Microeconomics tries to offer a scientific explanation for 'money miss road behavior''

Lecture 2 Consumer behavior

Are we rational when we buy stuff?What influences the way we buy? Why did Hushpuppi get so much validation from posting expensive stuff on instagram?

Lecture 3

Theory of production and costs featuring my social media gf @ShoutsAndMiras. In this video we talk about the economics of tomato production

Lecture 4 Competition
If I ever give a presentation without talking about my Uncle Aliko just know that the real me has been captured and aliens are using my likeness to deceive you people.

Here we talk about market structures including monopoly

Lecture 5 Oligopoly

Here I focus on Nigeria's most famous oligopoly: the banks ;-)

Lecture 6 Labour

Featuring Nigeria's most famous labour leader, baba Oshoimole himself

Lecture 7 Industry structure and pricing

Lecture 8 Globalization
