In the state of Soren, Nigeria, Michael Bouldwin, a farmer's son, grows up dreaming of leaving his home village and moving to the city. He is finally given his chance when his mother sends him to a high school there, believing education is his best route to improving both his own prospects and his family's. However, Michael soon finds out that, even though he is intelligent and hard-working, the obstacles in the way of a poor man trying to better himself in Nigeria are all but insurmountable. We Shall Be Free is a satire upon the corruption and injustice in Nigerian society, the weakness of its politicians and the vast disparity between the lives of its rich and poor. This book also calls for renewal in Nigeria - for a new society based on equality, justice and fairness.
