In the history of Nigeria's military, and the democratic dispensation, the name of Major-General Shehu Musa Yar'Adua cannot be relegated to the bottom line. In his military career, he distinguished himself as a patriotic officer worthy of his epaulets and honor. During the botched primaries organized by Gen. Ibrahim Babangida, he was disqualified along with other politicians. Rather than recline into obscurity, he rose to the challenge of the times, by condemning the excesses of the military regime of Gen. Sani Abacha. He was later imprisoned and murdered in prison. No doubt, he was a patriotic worthy of great honor - even in death! This book captures his thoughts, speeches, and his roles at various fora, in the nation's journey towards democratic evolution, he was Nigeria's greatest military strategist. May his soul rest in peace.
