Subititle 'A guide' is struck through on title page and cover.

"In Be(com)ing Nigerian: A Guide, Elnathan John provides an affecting, unrestrained, and satirical guide to the Nigerians you will meet at home and abroad, or on your way to hell and to heaven. A religious tells you It is a searing look at how power is abused, negotiated, and performed in private and public; in politics, business, religious institutions, and in homes. From the exploration of religious hypocrisy to inequality in matters of the heart, the collection is a jab at Nigerian society and what it means to be a Nigerian. Beyond poking fun at the holders of power, it is also a summons, a provocation, and a call for introspection among all levels of society. As is often said in Nigeria, when you point with one finger, there are four others pointing back at you."--From publishers website.
