Political Power in Nigeria

  • Sylvester Odion Akhaine

摘要

This book is about power in Nigerian politics. It is a profound analysis of the social forces in the power equation based on the South and the North power blocs. It illuminates the roots, materialisation, reproduction, and control of power in the Lugardian architecture that is Nigeria. The book takes readers into the changing dynamics of power and the processes  leading up to the 2023 General Elections that saw the emergence of a southerner as President of the most populous country in Africa. Through this analysis, the book explains the role of the colonial and post-colonial elite in the structure of political power in Nigeria. This work articulates in brilliant brevity the nature of power in Nigeria. It is a crucial hands-on account that will aid both local and international scholars in their work.
