Nobel Laureate Wole Soyinka is a principled fighter for justice in our country and around the world. This is the latest entry to the INTERVENTION SERIES by Wole Soyinka. This is, probably, his 112th book

It addresses the challenges of false attributions and discusses the impact of propaganda and the evolving nature of society’s tolerance for false narratives. And it lays a strong emphasis on the importance of authentic narratives and the need to confront lies.

However, some Ndigbo in several regions across Nigeria, and abroad have criticised the book, claiming it only be on different view of Ndigbo, which is often negative. Does this thought-provoking book challenges Ndigbo –  people and cultures?
