Bold Leap is an autobiography about the fascinating life experiences of Senator Chris Anyanwu. It is a documentation of exploits and victories over life’s challenges and troubles, including those invented and unleashed by desperate human wickedness.

The book goes beyond the usual mission of an autobiography to give fascinating insights into political voodooism in Nigeria and lifts the veil on the intricacies of election chicanery and subterfuge.

That is why the last 94 pages of the book which contains the seminal lecture given by Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu at the TSM Second Diamond Lecture in February 1994 titled, Nigeria: The truths which are self-evident, and no-holds barred commentaries by 58 notable Nigerians from all walks of life on the vexing issue of what should be the terms for the continued co-existence of the country’s component groups, is perhaps the most important section of the 612-page book.
