Sobre IBD

The author argues in this book that this is the best time to be a minority in Nigeria and that while the big tribes of Igbo, Hausa/Fulani and Yoruba constitute the three legs of the Nigerian tripod, the South-South represents the ring that connects or braces them together. He illustrates his thesis with examples of almost wholesale dominance of the media and banking businesses by those belonging to minority ethnic groups in Nigeria.
