Abstract
Nigeria has not benefited tangibly from most of her dealing with other nations of the world. For this diplomatic calculation, therefore, President Yar‟Adua‟s foreign policy thrust shifted significantly from the conventional practice of blind economic diplomacy, to citizenship diplomacy. The citizenship diplomacy was clearly built on citizenship protection and welfare. Thus, a crucial attempt is made in this paper to examine the fallout of this unique and laudable but unaccomplished foreign policy thrust. Methodologically, the paper adopts qualitative descriptive method of data collection and analysis. A medley of the leadership and power theories is skillfully utilized in the quest to achieve a strong analytical framework for the study. We argue that the implementation of Yar‟Adua‟s foreign policy thrust was adversely affected by his terminal illness and subsequent sudden demise. Generally, Yar‟Adua‟s practical incapacitation in office limited certain inherent potentialities and optimistic promises of the proclaimed citizenship diplomacy. More directly, there were important instances where the leadership faltered or petered out entirely from matching foreign policy with radical moves, both by lobbying and severance
