ARE YOU A NIGGER?



Surely you have heard the one about the unemployed Nigerian graduate who goes out one day in search of a job. He’s listening to his Japanese made radio and checking out the time on his Swiss made watch and hops into his German made car. This is only after he had donned his TM Lewin Jand sewn shirt and his Italian leather shoes.

He roams the streets of Lagos, gets nothing and is frustrated at the economic state of Nigeria!

My sister bought
this book,Capitalist Nigger, recently, and she has been raving about it. Thought you might like to have a look. It’s supposed to be a really great book for those that are interested in ushering in a new economic dawn.
Those who need to have a financial epiphany or like me are really just not as into Nigerian stuff as we should be can also apply. Lastly, since there has been some talk about finances in so many blogs
here and here, I thought I should chip in my own bit.

I wish I could tell you more about it, but I can’t as I am busy reading for my exams. However, just a few pages in, I was ready to declare that I am a Nigger.


P.S: If you did not understand the story above, then you definitely need this book. You can listen to the author’s radio interview
here. Alternatively, you can just read the transcript of the interview.
