Crackdowns on protesters and a Twitter ban suggest weakness at the top in Nigeria, while citizens face serious threats from terrorism, as well as rising 'bandit' violence and kidnapping. DW's Sarah Kelly meets Nigeria's ambassador to Germany, Yusuf Tuggar, on this week's Conflict Zone, to discuss President Muhammadu Buhari's actions, the country's security crisis and whether its high youth unemployment risks a lost generation.

Conflict Zone is Deutsche Welle's top political interview. Every week, our hosts Tim Sebastian and Sarah Kelly are face to face with global decision-makers, seeking straight answers to straight questions, putting the spotlight on controversial issues and calling the powerful to account.
