dc.description.abstractThe problem of dictatorship has become a frequent feature of military governments, especially in Asia, Latin- America and Africa. Grievances, complaints , political restructuring, desires for more freedom and yearnings for a change of government by the people had in the past provided avenues for these dictatorships. It is against this backdrop that this study is examining how dictatorship can be tackled effectively without recourse to anarchy and chaos using Chinua Achebe's Anthills of the Savannah and Nurrudin Farah's Sweet and Sour Milk. The research further examines the relationship between dictatorship and governance, how African writers such as Wole Soyinka, Ali Mazrui, Ngugi Wa Thiong'O among others were able to get involved in the socializing dimensions of governance, and how they were able to successfully articulate their views concerning bad governance in particular and the public decision making process in general.en
