Out of ten Nigerian politicians, eleven are corrupt?
A convicted money launderer welcomed home with a parade. Another, a governor, widely celebrated for escaping Europe in a dress and on a forged passport. Seventy million naira allegedly swallowed by snakes and monkeys.
In this book, Dr. Darlington Akaiso meticulously outlines the appalling extent to which the powerful few work behind the scenes to shamelessly plunder the resources of Nigeria. Up to eight billion dollars is lost annually to corruption, and no politician goes unexamined in this piercing review. From jungle justice to the corrupt kleptocracy that defines Nigeria’s ruling class today, Dr. Akaiso gives historical context to a modern but untenable problem.
This important record speaks truth to power and documents the crushing consequences of political gaming. It is a must-read for any student of justice, ethics, and politics in the world.
