Summary
Details

Nigeria is the sleeping giant of Africa-but who pays the price for its long, deep slumber?

For decades, the nation has grappled with the weight of corruption, systemic underdevelopment, and a political system that prioritizes elite interests over its immense potential. This is the stark reality of the price for docility. But beneath the surface of disillusionment, a powerful change is stirring.

The Core Promise (What the Book Delivers)

In a searing, unflinching critique, The Sleeping Giant cuts through the noise of conventional political analysis to expose the root causes of Nigeria's persistent stagnation. Drawing on contemporary history and socio-political theory, this book maps the deliberate mechanisms-from institutional rot to chronic citizen apathy-that have kept the nation tethered to its past.

The Turn/Solution (The Roar of Renaissance)

This is not just an exposé; it is a declaration.

The true focus of this book is the Roar of Renaissance: the burgeoning movement of activists, innovators, youth, and civil society leaders who are finally rejecting the status quo. It highlights the potent, irreversible force of change that is mobilizing to reclaim the nation's promise and forge a new path built on accountability, transparency, and genuine political awakening.

The Call to Action

For anyone seeking to understand the most pivotal political transformation happening in Africa today, this is essential reading.

The Sleeping Giant is a vital blueprint for every Nigerian, citizen, and observer ready to move from disappointment to demanding the future the giant deserves.
