Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Divine Rage is a cry from the heart; a poetic depiction of the contemporary Biafran struggle for independence. It harps on the dysfunctional nature of the Nigerian society coupled together by the British in the 20th Century. Divine Rage brings to the fore, the clay legs of the Nigerian contraption and its wobbly nature that has entrapped within, millions of people. Included in this amalgam of nations inside Nigeria are Biafrans, a boisterous people focused on freedom they had enjoyed for millennia before the obtuse British arrived the scene. Defeated in a war of independence between 1967- 1970, Biafrans have refused to let go their quest for independence fueled more by a Nigerian nation hell bent on eliminating them physically.This work is a reminder and a call to the world that another colossal disaster is once more threatening the people of Biafra in a nation that had long rejected them, yet refuses to let them go. May the world never allow a repeat of the 1966 - 1970 genocide Unfortunately the signs are all there that the world wants to let it happen again.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Considered of no consequence until they redefined colonial history, the Aba Women Revolution in south east Nigeria in 1929 knocked the air off the British imperial balloon. The Road To Aba depicts that epic struggle of women in colonial Nigeria to reassert their position in a society where the conquerors and their warrant chiefs denied them any role. This story brings a fresh perspective through the eyes of a granddaughter of one of the dramatis persona in the saga that shook Britain and forced her to change her colonial policy from indirect rule to direct rule not only in Nigeria but her other colonial holdings in the early 20th century. This work, a subtle critique of the present Africanist idea of feminism that is caught up in the Eurocentric idea that African women never had any right ab-initio seeks to correct this view by re-presenting African women in long gone days in their full power and glory. Ene, the lead character, a gender activist and a granddaughter of one of the leaders of the women revolution recalls this telling story on her unhappy drive homewards, driven away from her matrimonial home by an unappreciative husband and mother in-law.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A 4000 year civilization resurrects and seeks out a sick teenage African boy in Peckham. Umemnaeku collapsed yet again on his nineteenth birthday to the mysterious illness that has challenged him since childhood. His African born single mother in utter desperation consults a West Indian voodoo priestess in their Peckham neighbourhood and to her horror learned that what ails her son was from her long forgotten home in Africa. In his desperation to overcome his challenge, Umemnaeku embarks on a quest that stretched back over four thousand years, revealing an ancient civilization he never believed possible. Through ancient sacred rituals benumbing to a modern mind still kept alive by his father's people, he inherits the sacred role his forbears bore as the guardian of the great Ikenga stolen by the British in 1911. Each step was dodged by the British ultra secret order; Sophie Luminare, dreaded more than the Mason. Meandering in-between the pages is the love-hate relationship between Igbo-African civilization and the British cutting across the Atlantic slave trade, the American independence and subsequent civil war, the Haitian Igbo revolution and colonization of the Dominican Republic, the second world war, Nigerian independence struggle, the Igbo-Biafra war for independence and the return of the great Ikenga.
