Description
This book has become very necessary because of the nation's continued search for a viable political alternative. In this search, even the market women had to be given a hearing, and views were gathered from all sectors of the country. This, indeed, showed how desperately the nation needed immediate solutions. The paradox of the nation's dilemma is however in failing to realise that in any given social system, there must be the rulers, and there must be those specialised in advising the rulers. Throwing the political debate open to the market women simply gave the unfortunate impression that the governance of such a complex nation as Nigeria is the same as selling fish in the market.
