Tales of Blessedlandnia: Keys to Justice and National Rebirth (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781491896648)

The book is a fiction; it deals with Legal, political, economic and social ills plaguing most developing countries that are still grappling with various developmental challenges. The book highlights and satirizes all these ills and challenges facing these countries and proffer solutions to some of them. There are some developing countries especially in Africa where there is failure of leadership. This fuels ethnic, religious and socials upheavals which lead to political instability and even wars. In some of these countries, there is corruption of monumental proportion which slows down economic development and this may eventually lead to other social problems such as poverty, chaos, anarchy etc. The book politely and humorously point out these problems and the way forward. Corruption is a global problem but the book also propounds a theory that corruption in large scale by a political leadership in any country may lead to economic problem that could cause extermination of the poor masses gradually through hunger, preventable and curable diseases and that such corruption should be treated as ?massocide? and as crime against humanity by the UNO. The book also highlights the problem of unsuitability of some political arrangement of some developing countries that is also responsible for the political, social and economic problems plaguing them; and the need to have national dialogue to arrive at the best political arrangement which is indeed the foundation to build on. The outcome of such national dialogue should be implemented and use to draft a new constitution. The book humorously highlights the flight of integrity from some of these developing countries due to the bad example from leadership. When corruption is the order of the day and there is impunity in that no one is punished even when caught, it makes many people to join the bandwagon and hell is then let loose on the society. Some lawyers when well paid by corrupt officials; they would do all within their powers and explore legal loopholes and processes to either ensure that such cases drag to eternity in law courts or are never heard. Due to the legal procedure that presume an accused person innocent until convicted in law courts, the corrupt official going through trial in court would be free to pursue his/her political ambition, get elected into any political office and acquire more money to frustrate his/her trial in law court. This book highlights the foregoing too. The book highlights the social ills plaguing many developing countries which reduce most human beings to subsistence level and in such situation; higher human ideals are sacrificed on altar of expediency to survive. Even the zeal to work hard and excel wane in many people as the economic climate favours those with political powers and their cohorts; in such a situation everyone struggles to get to political power through any means. It becomes ?a do or die? affair. The book will appeal to the public at large especially those who are interested in finding solutions to the problems affecting the developing countries.
