Introduction – Purpose of the Book

The book, “THE ADVENTURERS” is a well suited drama which poses in-built classical ingredients that qualify it for a reading text anytime and anywhere with

the overriding theme of corrupt traditionalism versus reformative modernism encapsulated in systematic revolutionary sensitization as enunciated in the concerted crusade of Ojuaye and Group against the political bewitchment hatched by Oyuneye and Ilasiwaju.

Content
