An angry book from cover to cover railed against the alienation and sense of loss he felt upon turning the corner and seeing the nightmare that was their America
This volume is based on essays presented at the international conference on D O Fagunwa held in Akure, Nigeria, in August 2013. It situates Fagunwas work in broad intellectual and disciplinary contexts, viewing literary creation as both a distillation of a variety of disciplines and an ongoing conversation with them.
In recounting my five-year experience in government, I offer the tiniest details of the billion-dollar oil deal and unveil the web of local and international intrigues, deceit, lies and conspiracy around an avoidable scandal
A compelling and well written account. In this long awaited book, peel has told the history of Nigeria and oil in a way that makes this important subject accessible to all. In doing so, he has done a service to everyone who is interested in development and in Africa.
This is my sixth book and one in which I’ve been a bit more revealing. It should make very interesting reading because it is not a boring rant about economic and financial issues, but interesting dialogues on matters of mostly Nigeria’s sociopsychology and aspects of history. I personally enjoy such discourses better than the drone on the stiff subject of money and how it is made.
I think this is a more important aspect of the development quest of African people because from a systems point of view we should interrogate our lifeviews, our paradigms and of perspectives. Once the sociopsychological aspects are dealt with, development and progress becomes fairly easy and sustainable. The writings here reflect my mindset and perspective which fuses into my understanding of the larger issues towards ensuring that my people attain a better existence in this present world where no nation waits for another.
These wide ranging stories take us from Sophia town in the drum era to the rural Eastern cape to the luxury jozi homes of present day tenderpreneurs. By turns poignant, raunchy, philosophical and funny, they cast a wry and astute eye on universal human questions and conundrums presented by our particular historical moment.
