Federalism, Leadership and Development is a collection of recent essays by Mr. Sam Orovwuje published in newspapers and journals, addressing the themes of leadership, sustainable human development and development paradigms. The book covers topics as diverse as the crisis of leadership in Africa, leadership models, economic philosophy, poverty, migration, displaced persons, fiscal federalism and national structural deficiencies, especially in Nigeria. Some of the essays have been published in Nigerian national newspapers such as The Guardian and Daily Independent and in select critical foreign journals. Federalism, Leadership and Development address the critical tripod that is lacking in Nigeria, nay Africa. Thematically, it shows how the destruction of federalism creates room for cannibalistic politics and stultifies creativity and responsibility in the management of public resources in Nigeria. Sam argues that the ideal paradigm for developing diverse societies is the federalistprinciple and practice that acknowledges the diversity in culture and resource-endowment and creates room for healthy competition among the constituent cultures.
