".Wariboko's Split Time book provides another vital facet to what we might call, the promise of Waribokoian social theory for human flourishing. For this reason, I especially commend this book as an imperative resource within the ongoing evolvement of Pentecostal philosophical studies, social theory and political theology." -- Monte Lee Rice, Australasian Pentecostal Studies "Rigorously researched, The Split Time boldly poses urgent questions about the continued absence of economic development in a Nigerian African context. Nimi Wariboko's inimitable style--direct, logical, rhythmic, and compelling--enhances his perceptive mobilization of resources from 'indigenous economic philosophy.' The book's broad interdisciplinarity is a particular strength, advancing scholarship in interrelated fields ranging from theology and psychology to African studies." -- Ebenezer Obadare, author of Pentecostal Republic: Religion and the Struggle for State Power in Nigeria "Wariboko's compelling prescription for Africa's long-running underdevelopment syndrome centers on indigenous ideology and practices, allowing readers to savor a uniquely native system for bringing the African people to the much desired but elusive economic paradise." -- Raphael Chijioke Njoku, author of West African Masking Traditions and Diaspora Masquerade Carnivals: History, Memory, and Transnationalism.
