Summary
Details

If the Nigerian political class would understand that you don't need billions of Naira to live well and meaningful life, perhaps, this recklessness in looting public funds would be greatly minimized.

This book attempts to review the waste and looting of public funds by our public officials during the decade ending in 2009, categorized the missed opportunities of our nation, and proffered solutions for sustainable political and economic development.

Sadly, what I thought was a period of missed opportunity in Nigeria has turned out to be a golden era when compared to what is happening now. The looting has gone from a mere primitive accumulation of wealth by some highly placed public officials to a 'free for all' looting where a vast majority of our government officials are now at liberty to loot public funds entrusted with them without any sanctions.
