About the Book
We ended our long journey in Book One with a conclusion that Satan is the only enemy of God and man. He is responsible for our growing sinfulness that cause crises and wars from our family to the global levels. In all its attacks, this enemy uses man as its agents by tempting us in our hearts to offend God through our sins. Accordingly, we proceed in This Book Two to bring these Agents to the Global Court for trial in order to enhance the level of Global Peace in the world and our Spiritual Relationship with God. To undertake this Trial effectively, we must follow the Pillars that Christ established for us through His teaching and Commandments. On the secular level, Christ commanded that if our brother offends us we must first settle with him. If he refuses, we obtain witnesses and bring him before the court of witnesses for settlement and justice. On the spiritual level of restoring our relationship with God, Christ established the Pillar of the Sacrament of Penance through His Church to provide us the means of settling with God and obtain His forgiveness for our offence. These secular and spiritual pillars had sustained Our Good Relationship with God as well as Global Peace, Justice, Good Governance and Modern Civilization for over two thousand years since they were established through His Church. In this Book Two, we take up His Secular Pillar of seeking Settlement and Justice against our Brothers who had been causing global decline in peace through their cooperation with Satan. To this end , we brought them before a Fictional Global Trial Court –GTC -- for settlement. We leave them to seek settlement with God through the Church as commanded by Christ . At the conclusion of their Trial, by the GTC, we proceeded in Book Three to implement the Court’s Recommendations in a Fictional Secular Government of Odom. In Books Four and Five we survey in greater detail the ways our Enemy uses people at their various Professions and Government positions to tempt us to disobey God’s Good Commandments that provide the Pillars of Justice, Peace and Progress in our Lives.
About the Author
Vitalis Chidomere Nwaneri, brings to this book his experience and exposure to various advanced and developing countries across the globe in 1967 from The London School of Economics and Political Science, University of London. After his graduation, he joined the United Kingdom Government as an Economic Assistant and rose to that of an Economic Adviser by 1970. He left in 1971 to join the World Bank in Washington D.C. U.S.A. as a Project Economist. He rose to the position of a Senior Economist by 1980 when he returned to Nigeria. At the World Bank, he travelled extensively across the globe and gained exposure to various parts of the world and firsthand experience on major problems across the globe. These had inspired his analyses in this book on various global issues. .
On his return to Nigeria in 1980, he embarked on an audacious mission of bringing his global exposure and experience to contribute to the development of Nigeria's finance and private sectors. Two of his pioneering projects in Nigeria are banking and trade sectors brought him quite close to the weakness of Nigeria's secular governance. Through that exposure he learned much of the confrontation with the evils of corruption and bad governance. These brought much frustration in his pioneer projects on Indigenous Investment Banking and Commodity and Futures Exchange operations in the country. His efforts however helped to open up ownership of Nigerian banking to most Nigerian citizens and the establishment of Nigeria's First Commodity Exchange. . He also consulted for the Nigerian Government, public and private companies as well as International Institutions like the World Bank, the African Development Bank and the USAID.
He wrote books on Nigeria’s Economic and Trade Issues as well as Articles in Economic Journals and Magazines published in Nigeria, Britain and the World Bank (see References ).
Above all his efforts, he has been a devout Catholic since his birth in the Eastern Igboland of Nigeria 70 years ago.
As indicated in one of the chapters of the book dealing with the need for the enhancement of Pro-Christian policies in government, he reflected his Christian beliefs in most of his work, research and publications. He chose to be a Development Economist after he failed to go into the Seminary for his preferred profession of a Catholic priest. He often jokes when he says that if he cannot cure peoples' souls as a Priest; he might as well look after their economic and social hearts.
He now lives with his family in Maryland U.S.A. from where he wrote the Book.
