RESETTING THE GIANT: Nigeria's Blueprint for Institutional Rebirth

Nigeria's Blueprint for Institutional Rebirth

Resetting the Giant is a forensic autopsy of Nigeria's institutional collapse — and a data-driven treatment plan. Written from inside the machinery of the Nigerian state, this book traces how oil wealth severed the fiscal contract, how patronage networks captured the legislature, how vote-buying hollowed out democracy, and how a Ten-Year Compact plan with metrics, budgets, and deadlines could reset the giant. Every claim is anchored to data from named sources: BudgIT, NEITI, Auditor-General, CBN, NBS, PEFA, Transparency International. This is not a vision statement. It is a spreadsheet for rebuilding national conscience.
