Description
The Unfinished Nigerian Project brings together 30 essays written between 2020 and 2025 to examine why Nigeria’s recurring crises persist despite decades of diagnosis, reform programmes and political debate.
The book connects constitutional design to democratic restraint, security legitimacy to federal structure, taxation to public trust, and infrastructure failure to state capacity. Across seven thematic parts, Olarinre Salako considers federalism, the rule of law, policing, fiscal citizenship, electricity, healthcare, education and human capital.
Two concluding epilogues turn the analysis toward implementation. They propose three interconnected Integrated Power Systems for Nigeria and a cooperative model for extending reliable electricity to underserved rural communities.
Written from a multidisciplinary and non-partisan perspective, this is a study of how institutions convert authority into public outcomes – and what Nigeria must rebuild, defend and sustain to complete its unfinished national project.
