Madam Okonjo Iweala & Reforming the unreformable


It was rewarding shelling out three thousand naira for what looks like a non-pirated copy of Reforming the unreformables recently written by Okonjo Iweala. I was certainly not disappointed as I devour it within 24 hours.

It was a firsthand expose on managing the previously battered economy of Nigeria during the Obasanjo years.Personally, I consider it an objective presentation and not the usual Nigeria writers' attempt at self-adulation or self-praising.

Hope by the time she write her years in Jonathan Government she would not be be revealing how she became captive of her earlier successes. Such possibility that can happen after a person succeeds in a task or mutitudes of tasks. This,  she alluded to in the book.
