The Plot of the Book Title: Revolution in Wazobia: The Revolutionary Vision of the Triumph of a TriumvirateWritten in 410 pages including the preliminary pages, 14 Chapters and a PostscriptCopyright: Anene Nwuzor, 2013, Published in 2015Publishers: Ann's Indulgence Limited (AIL), Abuja, Nigeria. The book is a historical fiction for a general readership. The author, Anene Nwuzor, used a fictional approach to deal with realities in Africa. Bad leadership and corruption have contributed to having most of the African countries falling behind with failed education, economic and socio-political systems. Just like many innovations, which come with imaginations turned into clear visions, the author put up a challenge to a possibility, which with commitment can be brought to reality. Just a reminiscent of the saying, 'with imagination one can fly', with his vision in order to inspire in the people a rethink, hope and confidence for a change towards for growth and development of African countries.The author's analogy of the prevailing pathetic state of African countries, using an imaginary country in this book started in his earlier book; Educating for Democracy in Nigeria, a psycho-socio analysis, which specifically analysed the systems' failure in Nigeria. The book pitched from helping readers in understanding human and developmental psychology went on explaining to readers what contributed to the systems' abnormalities. With an unassuming boldness, the author in this new book traced the need for social change, reformation of minds and use of scientific innovation (Nanotechnology) to offer what will help change the systems. While some people have given up hope on a change to normal standard systems, some have the notion that for the countries in Africa, if at all a positive change will come, it will come with revolution, which has been mostly viewed as one of violence, bloodshed. However, the author in another different stroke daringly offered a practical solution on how the needed change can happen. Committed to impacting on societal growth and development, he reaffirmed the need for a radical change--not one of bloodshed--but in attitude with Revolution in Wazobia. Despite portraying the disheartening tales of abnormal things that have become normal things, which people seem not working on changing but rather devising means to living with or leaving for some other foreign lands, Revolution in Wazobia created a fascinating and mind-boggling thriller of the tales that make readers to laugh hilariously (this is possibly to nerve the readers while exposing the weak structure of the educational, economic, social and political institutions), but then the readers pause and think. The book somewhat taught what democratic leadership and followership should offer.The author found a figure, a woman, Andora, who despite the odds surrounding her sexuality--in most African cultures is subjected for no just cause to social, economic and moral deprivation--triumphed along with two other major characters. They promoted an ideology and a movement that helped change the people's executive, legislature and judiciary systems. Nwuzor tactically employed the skills of a teacher, a historian, a psycho-socio analyst and many years of experience as a researcher to analyse the behaviour of the polity in most of the African countries. The story completed in 2013, in simple past tense tells of a modest future triumph for Africans. His work depicted with utmost precision what played out in Nigeria's 2015 general election. The work is a result of thorough analysis, and thus deemed worth reading for the actualization of its actual vision. It has an audio and e-book versions.Links to Reviewhttps://guardian.ng/art/dreaming-a-proper-country-into-being/http://authorityngr.com/2016/08/Revolution-in-Wazobia-is-Nigeria-s-imminent-thrust-to-development-foretold--Chizoba-(II)/

This book prescribes rapid revolution in principal sectors of this African economy through radical paradigm changes. And the resultant comprehensive transformation will guarantee significantly higher productivities and double digit annual economic growth. Included in this paradigm shift is the joint reindustrialization of the African economy and the US ailing industries via a new Strategic trans-Atlantic Alliance modeled on the balanced Euro-US cooperation after World War II. But it first takes readers through a thorough evaluation of the familiar subject - corruption - which haunts Nigeria, the principal economy in the continent. The fundamental difference with other texts on the subject is that this book identifies the most debilitating variant of that corruption. That variant causes massive capital flight from a post-colonial "soft economy" that is neither capitalist nor socialist. The Nigerian corruption thrives on the native Philosophy of Commission hardened by intractable "tribalism" that coagulated and ossified with the imports substitution pattern preferred by European firms since independence. The book then proceeds to earn its priced revolutionary credential by inventing very novel scientific methods that will skillfully turn this insidious source of structural rigidity and arrested development into a force for economic growth. A new apex political leadership culture is recommended and to be fortified with a unifying lingua franca. An inter-ethnic marriage melting-pot is advised for intensified nigerianization of Nigerian youths at birth. Spiritual diversity is envisaged to significantly diminish religious intolerance and sectarian violence. Modern bureaucracy and inward-looking tourism are reformulated to reduce effervescent insecurity and minimize capital flight. The resultant economic stability will enlarge domestic/foreign investment inflow; and will reverse the current dis-industrialization, and massive job loss, and the conditions of under-full employment. Technological Functionalism, Economic pan-Africanism, and the Alternative Policy of Inputs Substitution are among the several brand new blueprints that this book offers for the extensive transformation of Africa's economy into the robust emerging economy that will rival its counterparts in India and China in the immediate future.

This book focuses on the structure and sociolinguistics of Nigerian Pidgin English. Its major aim is to serve as a compendium which touches different major aspects of NPE as it has been observed that earlier works in this area have focused only on one aspect or the other. It will offer a broad survey of the form and functions of Nigerian Pidgin (NP) in different domains. The book promises to investigate the use of NP in such domains as popular culture, advertisement, social media and online discussion fora. One major strong point of this volume is the fact that it will direct attention to different fertile areas of NP by focusing, inter alia, on its social functions, its morphology and syntax, its regional varieties, its (possible) use as a viable medium of instruction in school, the changing attitudes of people towards its use, the place of NP in relation to language planning and policy in Nigeria as well as sociolinguistic variation within NP. The book will make a significant contribution to the existing literature on NP as, unlike earlier studies in this area, it will explore the grammatical, sociolinguistic and perceptual aspects of the language. By bringing together the expertise of renowned Nigerian and international scholars who have conducted research in this area, the volume will be an essential resource for researchers, graduate and undergraduate students interested not only in Nigerian Pidgin but also on contact linguistics.

This special issue focuses on literary texts by African writers in which the protagonist returns to his/her 'original' or ancestral 'home' in Africa from other parts of the world. Ideas of return - intentional and actual - have been a consistent feature of the literature of Africa and the African diaspora: from Equiano's autobiography in 1789 to Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's 2013 novel 'Americanah'. African literature has represented returnees in a range of locations and dislocations including having a sense of belonging, being alienated in a country they can no longer recognize, or experiencing a multiple sense of place. Contributors, writing on literature from the 1970s to the present, examine the extent to which the original place can be reclaimed with or without renegotiations of 'home'. Articles on Nuruddin Farah, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Pede Hollist, Ayi Kwei Amah, Dinaw Mengestu, Benjamin Kwakye. Interview with Tendai Huchu. Featured Articles by Bernth Lindfors, Eustace Palmer & Helen Chukwuma. Literary supplement : four poems by Tsitsi Ella Jaji .

This book explores the themes of colonial encounters and postcolonial contests over identity, power and culture through the prism of theatre. The struggles it describes unfolded in two cultural settings separated by geography, but bound by history in a common web of colonial relations spun by the imperatives of European modernity. In post-imperial England, as in its former colony Nigeria, the colonial experience not only hybridized the process of national self-definition, but also provided dramatists with the language, imagery and frame of reference to narrate the dynamics of internal wars over culture and national destiny happening within their own societies. The author examines the works of prominent twentieth-century Nigerian and English dramatists such as Wole Soyinka, Femi Osofisan, Davd Edgar and Caryl Churchill to argue that dramaturgies of resistance in the contexts of both Nigerian as well as its imperial inventor England, shared a common allegiance to what he describes as postcolonial desires. That is, the aspiration to overcome the legacies of colonialism by imagining alternative universes anchored in democratic cultural pluralism. The plays and their histories serve as filters through which Ampka illustrates the operation of what he calls 'overlapping modernities' and reconfigures the notions of power and representation, citizenship and subjectivity, colonial and anticolonial nationalisms and postcoloniality. The dramatic works studied in this book embodied a version of postcolonial aspirations that the author conceptualises as transcending temporal locations to encompass varied moments of consciousness for progressive change, whether they happened during the hey day of English imperialism in early twentieth-century Nigeria, or in response to the exclusionary politics of the Conservative Party in Thatcherite England. Theatre and Postcolonial Desires will be essential reading for students and researchers in the areas of drama, postcolonial and cultural studies.
