The Dilemmas of a country brings to fore the challenges that have bedeviled Nigeria from 1914 when the Northern and Southern Protectorates were merged. The book reveals factors that have stunted the growth of Nigeria despite the abundance of resources available that can make the country great. One can but marvel why a country so endowed like Nigeria has consistently thrown up ‘leaders of circumstances’ since independence. What makes this book unique are its expository and painstaking efforts to identify the source of the country’s problem and various reliable solutions to tame the monster called corruption. The book is a good handout for political students, analysts, leaders and followers who desire to make a positive difference in the political sphere in Nigeria. Filled with intrigued facts, the book is an eye-opener to stop the blame game and start working towards a great country we desire.
