Reinventing Nigeria

Re-Inventing Nigeria presents a political analysis of the country, showing how to make Nigeria's federation work. It proffers a democratic initiative 

to keep Nigeria together as one strong united federal republic, while providing a democratic model that other countries with similar multiethnic challenges can emulate.

The book focuses on how the Nigerian Federal Project can be restructured to make it more functional and service driven.

It begins with a historical review, concluding that the foundations of Nigeria were faulty from the start, with no agreement made towards nationhood by the federating units. Instead, Nigeria's different ethnic nationalities held themselves in mutual suspicion, even in contempt, before independence.

A new form of democratic government, called plebisciterianism, is recommended because of its inbuilt recourse to the plebiscite. This ensures 

that all nationalities are included in the government at any given time.
