The Whole Truth is a bold and incisive memoir chronicling the unvarnished story of my life--a journey marked by resilience, spanning childhood, the Nigerian Civil War, education, business, and politics. Within these pages lies a rare, firsthand account of the Biafran War, as personally told to me by the warlord himself, Ikemba Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu. I recount intimate encounters with General Ibrahim Babangida, former military president of Nigeria, unveiling untold stories--from the mystery of the missing Gulf War windfall to the controversial death of Dele Giwa--while also revealing Babangida's lesser-known humane side. The book boldly engages the controversial national question, "Jibril of Sudan or Buhari?" Featured throughout are key figures from the spheres of business, politics, and religion, including: * Aliko Dangote * Abdulsamad Rabiu * Allen Onyema * Peter Obi * Francis Ogboro * Thomas Sankara * Archbishop Fortunatus Nwachukwu * Bishop Matthew Hassan Kukah * Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe * And many more The narrative explores the stormy battles over cement import licensing--including the fierce Dangote--BUA cement and Sugar Wars. It also traces my political evolution--from my role in the Abia State government, to the gripping "Abaribe Must Go" saga. The heartbreak of the deeply flawed and massively rigged 2011 Abia governorship election. It traces my experience at Harvard, and my spiritual awakening and departure from the Seminary." Readers will also gain personal insight into my family love life and inner motivations, as reflected in "Marriage to My Heartthrob" (Chapter Thirteen) and in the reflective "Random Musings" (Chapter Seventeen). Chapter Eighteen distills wisdom from my lecture series at the Sinderesi School, Gregorian University, Rome--and so much more. As Ms. Judith Ashby, author of the Foreword, notes, "The Whole Truth is not for the fainthearted. It is bold, fresh, and a must-read."
