We must stand against the tide of conduct unbecoming to the civil society in all places An experienced civil servant, Folorunso Folowosele writes with confident authority as well as patriotic alarm about the crimps and cracks in one of the most crucial organs of state governance-the civil service; the flaws, the frivolities and the pompous antics of its members and players; how the arrogance of power undermines efficiency and fuels pettiness and maliciousness; and of the courageous resistance of one of its untainted officers. Pomposity and Power exposes the rot and the corruption within the civil service establishment, the ineptitude and incompetence that abound there, the unhealthy rivalries and acts of meanness that sabotage talent and promote mediocrity. -Femi Osofisan, PhD, NNOM Professor of Drama, University of Ibadan"
