Welcome back to the Think BIG for Africa Podcast. In today’s episode, my guest is Eric Coffie. Eric is the policy analyst and president of the Institute for Liberty and Economic Education (ILEE), a social, political, and economic research policy think tank based in Accra, Ghana.

Eric is a big advocate of the Free Market and believes that a major reason why African democracy and economies are lagging is due to the instant government intrusion in the market.

In this conversation, we talked about the political and Economic Emancipation of Africa, Governance and Democracy, Sustainable Development, the role of the individuals, the role of Entrepreneurs, the role of government, Faith and Spirituality, and many more.
