Wole Soyinka’s scathing and unsparing observation of the idiosyncrasies and excesses of contemporary Nigeria society cultural alienation, the corruption of power and opportunistic self-serving preoccupations of our so called leaders

‘Africa – concept or reality – is an acknowledged continent of extremes and, by the same token, it is hardly surprising that it draws extreme reactions. The increasingly accepted common ground, both for the negativities and optimists, is the admission that the African continent does not exist in isolation, nor has it stood still in a time-warp, independent of history.

A truly illuminating exploration of Africa has yet to take place. It does not pretend to take place even on the pages of this book, being content with retrieving a few grains for germination from the wasteful threshing floor of Africa’s existential totality.

THE MUSE OF FORGIVENESS

The nation that is Sudan belongs to two families of the world community Arab and African. These are structure, with the global recognition, as the Arab league, and the African union. It is depressing to observe the studied indifference of one-the Arab family-to the criminality of one of its members, a nation historically placed as a cultural bridge between two races.
