This title was first published in 2003. Wolfgang Stolper was one of
the first Western economists to serve as an adviser in the
government of an independent African country. In 1960 he was
brought in by the Nigerian government to help shape Nigeria's first
post-independence development plan. His remarkably candid diaries
chronicle his struggles and frustrations with officials,
interference, waste and corruption at the heart of a government and
unfolds the extraordinary story of his warmth and friendship with a
country and its people. Brutally frank, compelling and disarmingly
thoughtful, Inside Independent Nigeria brings to light one of the
most exceptional documents on post-independence Nigeria, and
delivers a fascinating picture of a pivotal era in the development
of Western economic planning in Africa. No student or researcher of
African political history, economics or development studies will
want to be without this utterly riveting book.
