Description: "The last two years (2013-2015) of the Jonathan Administration exemplified the rudderless situation that a government of 'business as usual' finds itself. The Peoples Democratic Party had no systematic or clear programme except uncoordinated and ill-digested clichés that were ineffectual for a country in a dire need of direction. President Goodluck Ebele Azikiwe Jonathan was the scapegoat of past political neglect and collective political inattention of Nigerians"--Back cover.
