About the Book:
This book details the historical context of social justice advocacy in West Africa, with spotlight on Nigeria, in an attempt to foreground the challenges to socio-politics within the corridor from colonial times to digital activism. It adopts a holistic approach of citing case studies covering Anglophone, Francophone and Lusophone contexts; so as to bridge the existing divide of isolated scholarship efforts that have their audience geography defined by language.
