Who's Afraid of Solarin?

Set against the backdrop of local government corruption, the play features Isola, a mischievous traveler who is mistaken for the esteemed Public Complaints Commissioner, Tai Solarin. As he exploits this mix-up, the tension builds until the real Commissioner appears. Celebrating Solarin's legacy, this classic work by Femi Osofisan, first published in 1978, is enriched in this edition with the inaugural Tai Solarin Memorial Lecture delivered by Osofisan in 2004, highlighting the enduring impact of Solarin's contributions to education and public service in Nigeria.
