Muslim-Christian Dialogue in Post-Colonial Northern Nigeria Reviews

'This is a timely intervention in the critical analysis of a never-ending saga of religious divisions and hatred in Nigeria that has consumed hundreds of lives in the last three decades. Rich in the historical context, profound in the analysis of the causes, and rigorous in its proffered solutions, the book adds to our understanding of political Islam, ethnicity and politics, and poverty and violence in one of the most important countries in the world.' - Toyin Falola, The Jacob and Frances Sanger Mossiker Chair in the Humanities and Distinguished Teaching Professor, University of Texas at Austin, USA
