Title: Revolution
First published: 2004
Description: As Nigeria returned to democracy in May 1999, the people welcomed the new government with utmost enthusiasm. By the end of the first term however, (2002), the people seemed tired of the civilian government's excesses that they insinuated revolution, overtly or covertly, as an option. The author, Kizito Osudibia, came out with an examination of the the subject. He evaluated the country's frustrating history and the antecedent, or rather, primordial and inherent problem of Ethnicity and Religious Clashes (obviously engendered by ethnicity), and warns against the failure of such a venture. He sees the multiplicity of the country as both a threat to its continued unity and progress.
