Chinua Achebe on Biafra: an elaborate deconstruction / Ejiogu, EC   Journal Article
Ejiogu, EC Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract A properly contextualized historiography in Chinua Achebe's personal history of Biafra is necessary for shaping his discourse on Biafra clearly for a better understanding. British colonial intervention was a crass endeavor that repositioned clearly distinct peoples inhabiting the parts of the Niger basin that became Nigeria in an unhealthy social, economic and political arrangement that enabled the series of unfortunate events that included the pogroms of the Igbo and, of course, the genocidal Biafra war.
