Some Governance and Peaceful Coexistence Issues for Sustainable Advancement

About the Book

Nigeria is passing through stress in its journey toward attaining a reasonable level of sustainable development as a nation, and Nigerians need to contribute their quota to improve the situation. This is the context in which this wonderful and easily readable book by Sir Anthony Wakwe Lawrence—Some Governance and Peaceful Coexistence Issues for Sustainable Advancement: A Nigerian Perspective—is written. The book is an x-ray of some of the social and political issues facing Nigeria carried out by a man who is clearly seeking improvement for his country’s underperformance and failure to live up to its potential and promise. The book is made up of seven chapters with a methodological approach that is a blend of history, sociology, and political science. Every reader of this book will not remain the same.
