More than a book, it's a journey!
Let us be grateful that the Enough-is-Enough generation is publishing this book to wake Nigerians up to the fact that we have drifted far and long from where we say that we want to be."
It is our responsibility [. . .] to use our privilege and opportunity to lift fellow citizens wherever we can [and] to hold the government accountable as loudly as we can, all the time.
I believe in Nigeria and Nigerians… We deserve better and we can do better.
