Item description from the seller

One of the unique features of the book is that each of the seven (7) chapters contained have an afterwords writer who is an authority in the topic focused.
By and large, the collection of 77 articles in the book is very profound because it features essays that dwell on the core and relevant issues concerning the existence of Nigeria as a country and what needs to be done to make her flourish. Some of the topics focused on in the 7 chapters are: democracy and governance, politics and practice of politics, business and economy, leaders and leadership, and ethnic nationalism, separatism and religious insurgency, corruption and graft – the unending fight against it, and our country’s relations with other African countries and the rest of the world.
In essence, the book serves as a vital lesson in civic engagement and history. It provides an in-depth exploration of how power has been wielded and sometimes misused in Nigeria between 1999-2019 which is during the reign of Olusegun Obasanjo, Umaru Yar’Adua, Goodluck Jonathan and Muhammadu Buhari; and the consequent impact of their leadership on the masses who do not possess this power.
Finally, the book is both a prophesy and an explanation in the same breath. That is because some of the fears that we had expressed in our media interventions about looming policy disasters that the actions and inactions of leaders in government could trigger or elicit way back in the days have come to pass.
Although it is a whopping over 600 pages to me, it is worth the reading effort.
