This crime thriller, Killing In God's Name, written by Joseph Godwin Ochie, a University of Nigeria-trained Political Scientist, tells a thought-provoking story of life of crimes in Kistan, the most populous black nation on earth; a nation under siege and on the brink of disintegration via terror attack. Honor, integrity, truth and good governance are social vices to the leaders. Corruption and bad governance then become virtues. As expected, the people of Kistan suddenly find themselves in a state of nature. Anybody can take illegally by force from another if they have the power and retain as long as they can. Political leaders sponsor terrorism against the hopeless people of Kistan; the judges of the country are in a bribe collecting spree to grant freedom to condemned rebel members. In a broad daylight the security agents legally armed and paid to maintain law and order forcefully rob people of their hard-earned money. And just as the christian leaders down south are fleecing and re-fleecing their flock, the Islamic clerics up north are filling their faithful with hate preaching. The result is chaos. Nothing is going right for the common people. In a word,every of the leaders is killing, killing the ordinary people. And paradoxical, as it may sound, that is done in the Holy Name of God. Emeka Uchukwu narrates how the above factors combine to make him the criminal he is.
