Synopsis

The Oil Republic: From Missing Billions to Subsidy Scam is a fascinating exposé of Nigeria’s complex relationship with its most lucrative natural resource. Tracing the history from the discovery of oil in Oloibiri in 1956 to the major scandals of missing billions, subsidy rackets, and state takeover, this book unpacks how crude oil altered Nigeria’s economy, politics, and identity – often at the expense of its people.

Through thoroughly researched stories of iconic instances like the $2.8 billion mystery, the Gulf War windfall, the Farouk Lawan subsidy probe, and the Diezani Alison-Madueke case, it offers a depressing narrative of impunity, elite involvement, and squandered potential.

Yet, beyond recording corruption, The Oil Republic provides a daring roadmap for reform, transparency, and national atonement. It is a timely, unvarnished perspective on how Nigeria reached here — and what must be done to regain its future.
