The Activist

In The Activist, Nigeria'S Acclaimed Poet, Tanure Ojaide, Brings His Sharp Sensibilities And Writing Skills To Prose Storytelling. The Protagonist Makes A Reverse Trip From America To A Home Whose Young And Able Are Straining At The Leash To Escape To The Perceived Comforts Of The West. Ojaide Weaves A Compelling Narrative That Illuminates The Contradictions Of State And Society In Contempoary Africa. The Activist, However, Is More Than Testimonial Literature. It Is Visionary And Bold As It Attempts To Answer The Eternal Question: What Is To Be Done? At This Moment, This Book Could Not Be More Timely.
