Book Description
The Nigerian condition has been the subject of conversation among writers, policymakers, and market men and women. There is no where the subject is not broached or discussed and often solutions are proffered, from the rational to the mundane. This is to be applauded because a culture of debate is to be preferred to silence as it is a national asset. Indeed, it is the duty of the ruling elite within the state sphere to distil the feedback from the citizenry and turn it into an outcome that is healthy for the polity.

Pages : 364
Book Description
They all come from all walks of life seeking solutions to their problems . . . Seeking answers from the motivational speaker . . . SST, really I feel Im not worthy to be here, she spoke softly again, displaying a reluctance to speak out. I immediately got interested! From experience, such people have interesting stories that will make my day. My sister, dont worry, you have come where your problems will be attended to. I was cajoling her to speak out! And please, I didnt get your name, or you dont feel like telling me? I said. Its not like that, SST! Its just that I dont think I should say what I want to say. She was shying away. I was right. She didnt want her name to be mentioned, theres a story all right! She came back reluctantly. OK. SST, my name is Joan, she said. Joan like hell! No problem, I can use that name. Names are like ages. They really dont count on my show because you hardly get the true dose, all the same I just needed it for the reference. OK, Joan, whats the issue? Let me see your steps, the floor is all yours now. I decided to spur her. I havent got all day even if she was my only caller. Joan, lets hear you before our shot time is up, and we might just miss you for life. I was pushing her. That seemed to wake her, and from then, she started coming out like a canary. When something is bottled up for so long inside someone and it wants to spurt out, a small nod will collapse the whole balloon. SST, you see, I never knew my life will drain to this level. I was not brought up to be like this. I had a good family upbringing, nice parents that wanted the best for me. It was not meant to be like this for me. I bet I was left astray by the company I made in school. Thats it, she is talking now! You cant put it down once you start reading . . .
